This trip exceeded all my expectations!
The accommodations, the guides, the timing and organization of everything, the ease of the app, Helena's responsiveness - it was all superb! Christian (I am pretty sure that was his name) our Catalan Trails guide through Montserrat was so knowledgable, friendly, patient, encouraging and helpful. This was also true of Marcos, our guide for the bike ride through Valencia as well as Adam, our snorkel guide in Tabarca.
Hotel Reviews
The rooms were small, clean, and elegant. The bakery downstairs provided an excellent continental breakfast, and the staff was friendly and helpful.
Rooms were clean and elegant. The reception and housekeeping staff was responsive and thorough. The restaurant downstairs was excellent but a separate business from the hotel itself so no breakfast was included. However, the breakfast we paid for was superb as was dinner. Also , the lobby and decor of the restaurant was *beautiful.*
This hotel was gorgeous! A mini palace with a spacious and beautifully decorated roof deck. The rooms were comfortable, charming, and clean. The attached restaurant provided an excellent breakfast and the staff was helpful and friendly. It was perfect for visiting the San Joan festivities and beach without needing any transportation.

It was the perfect length and level of strenuousness. The location was also gorgeous while also filled with captivating history! Our guide was exceptional: kind, knowledgable, patient, delightful to spend time with!

I loved cycling through the old and new parts of the city and contrasting them both. The length of the tour - 3 hours - felt great to me. It was an easy ride with several stops for rests and snacks!
