Miquel was a great guide, knowledgeable about the area we visited, funny, opiniated, happy to listen to our opinions and input. We spent a wonderful day visiting the Dali house in Port Lligat, and because we had visited Cadaques before Miquel took us to Selva where the seaside town was less busy than Cadaques, recommended a great local restaurant, and then drove us around the wonderful scenic area before getting us to the rail station for our trip to Tarragona. Thank you for a great day!

Miquel guided our group of 6 friends on a fantastic day trip from Girona to the Costa Brava, including some medieval towns along the way. Miquel was engaging and interesting from the very beginning of our tour. His suggestions for stops and sights to see were perfect. Miquel was charming and funny and kept us all entertained the entire day. We felt like we were hanging out with an old friend. We would not hesitate to recommend Miquel for any Girona or Costa Brava touring.

We enjoyed our tour, which was primarily of the Jewish quarter, very much. Miquel was knowledgeable and pleasant to be with. My family, including our children ages 20, 18 and 12 also enjoyed the tour and learned a lot about the history of the Jewish people in Girona. It was a worthwhile excision from Barcelona.
