Her knowledge of the history of Barcelona, navigating the streets of the Old City, taking us to the various locations for the tapas and beverages, cannot compare to any other experiences I’ve had on group tours. Those in our tour group would most certainly share how personable, knowledgeable, professional, and caring Berta was. On a scale of 1 to 10 this was a 20!!! What a fantastic experience to have had during my first trip…”
