Less than 24 hours before the trip, it was cancelled. Communication with this company was horrible. I sent them a message through TripAdvisor asking if I should buy Sagrada Familia tickets several weeks before. They never responded, and fortunately I did not since we never made it to Barcelona. We had a group of 6 (4 teenagers). They offered a Wine and Tapas tour in Madrid as a replacement option. Hmm, perfect for teens. The trips to Segovia and Toledo were all full. When I asked if we could just get the train tickets to Barcelona, they said they had already exchanged them. The reason the tour was cancelled was because of an emergency with the tour guide and no available replacement. I tried calling 2 days before to get more details on the meeting time and place. It was supposed to be a 7 am meeting and I wanted to know exactly where to be. They did not mention anything about the possibility of cancellation. They said they would contact me the following day with more info. Still had not heard from them at 11 am the day before trip. They again, said they would call me back. Then they What’s App messaged me that trip was cancelled. It was scheduled for our last day in Madrid so no option to reschedule. Ending up finding ecoTuktuk tour with a different company - which was great. But never made it to Barcelona!

Got off to a rocky start. Company canceled tour on the day we wanted it so it needed to be rescheduled, then, company gave us the wrong show time. Because of reschedule, our train tickets were scattered all over.
Tour in Barcelona though was great. Lucas did a great job, interacted well with all in our group and was a great source of information. Overall, he was a delight to work with. It was a busy day but very informative!

We had such a wonderful time on this tour. Luca was phenomenal as our guide. We had a family of five and he was so patient and kind with everyone. He’s a gem! I would recommend this tour to anyone.

The group was small but the tour guides were full of life. Guiding us to the train seating, meeting us at the designated places were perfect. I was not happy with the early morning pick up point. It should be the coffee shop just 10 feet away. That would help all as the shop would then RECONFIRM that I am in the right place. Yes, I will recommend to all my contacts to use this company.

We enjoyed the entire tour especially the visit to Sagrada Familia. We enjoyed the company of both Lucas (entire tour) Cassandra (inside Sagrada) and we all agreed that if we were just on our own we would have never appreciated all the places we’ve visited. They are both very knowledgeable, very enthusiastic, very detailed and very engaging!

It got cancelled so wasn’t able to go. Was told the day prior which I wish I was told sooner. They did state I would be reimbursed.
