5.00We recently booked a tour through Spain Day Tours. We did the Barcelona and Montserrat tour for our family of 5. Our driver Hugo was prompt in picking us up at our Airbnb. He was very professional and accommodating. Our van was clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend Spain Day Tours for all your tour needs.
Spain Day Tours to Montserrat was memorable!

5.00I booked a semi private tour with Spain Day Tours. Joel picked us up at hotel (in a very nice vehicle) and drove us to Monterserrat. We did the St. Joan Funicular and they included tickets to the Cathedral with the Black Madonna. Very memorable. Highly recommend Spain Day Tours.
Great Barcelona Day

5.00Our guide picked us up at the cruise ship pier on time. Communication/instructions before the tour was very well done. Our guide was friendly & knowledgeable and made our tour fun and interesting. Our group was only 6 people which was very nice. We had plenty of time at Monserrat and afterwards we did Cava wine tasting at a beautiful winery. Our guide arranged for a lovely lunch at a local eatery. He was kind enough to drop us all off at our respective hotels. It was a great tour and a great day.

5.00We were picked up at our hotel and joined a small group in a comfortable suburban van for the day-long tour. Our driver/guide was knowledgeable, thoughtful and considerate. The day went quickly! And we gained a deeper understanding and appreciation of this beautiful city. There were several beautiful vistas and great photo opportunities. Highly recommend.

5.00We used Spain Day Tours for our recent stay in Barcelona after disembarking from a transatlantic cruise. They were very easy to contact and answered all my questions ahead of time. We had a small group of 7 for a Montserrat and Barcelona tour. We did not have a separate guide, just the driver who was very informative and easy to work with, often offering us options of what we wanted to do. Montserrat was amazing and although he couldn't go in with us, he directed us on the best way to see the Black Madonna and then visit the remaining chapels. We went to Park Guell and he was able to direct us to the main sites. It's amazing! Then we toured Montjuic and the main sites in Barcelona, making several stops along the way. Our friend was not feeling well and he was very considerate of her needs as well. We also used Spain day tours and their sister company Italy day tours for some excursions while on the ship and we will definitely be using them again in the future.
Good transfer and tour
