Very informative tour without being information overload. Xavi, our guide, took us through a beautiful botanical gardens. Showed us the way to some of the best views you’ll ever see and touched on some of the history. He also made it very clear that if you wanted to break off and do your own thing you are more than welcome to do so. (I would advise against it, you will miss some things)

Xavi was a great guide and answered every question asked. He was so so polite and went above and beyond to make the experience awesome!The beaches are great but need a towel. Tossa Del Mar had more than just the beach like the Castle and the old town shopping.

It was great fun. Easy peasy to find the meet up point by the Musea de Música. There is a lot of walking so if you are not super mobile you might select something else. Carma was fantastic and it was nice to listen to her perspective about the Catalan people. It really is a different experience to be swimming in the water in front of a castle wall from the 11th century.

The food was in a tourist hangouts in Loretta del Mar and not as advertised. My mother didn't get the food hefty, which affected the further course of the trip. The driver is also somewhat turbulent in the residential area thundering over the ground elevation.
