Reviews
The tour guide, Kurt, was very knowledgeable about the destinations and provided a lot of good information. We ended up being the only two people who booked the tour so we essentially got a private tour for the price of a small group tour. The ruins in Tarragona were interesting to see. Sitges is a quint, beachfront town that is scenic but lacks high-end shops and restaurants. It seemed rather touristy. Nonetheless, this was a good tour that matched the description on Viator.
Great guide!
Great guide!
Unfortunately it rained heavily most of the day, but our guide vicento did a wonderful job showing and explaining all about Tarragano and later Sitges. Heavy traffic in and out of Barcelona added to the time in the car - possibly a bit long.
Our host Kurt-Jaume made the day.... I think if we had spent the day in a bar with him it would have been a great day. The conversation covered politics / what makes a good Iberian ham / why so many Spaniards smoke etc... and the we arrived in Tarragona. Different pace to the town than Barcelona and Kurt's explanations made sense of ruins pieced into the town. Cold drinks in a plaza and more conversation. The to Sitges... old town on the headland was an unexpected treat. Beachfront eateries OK without being anything special. Drive back to Barcelona by a different route gave us a different look at the city. Kurt is what us Australians call as dry as a chip.... certainly not the run of the mill tour guide but some-one who was a pleasure to spend the day with.
It was a minimum of 12 on this tour but it just the guide and the two of us so we went in his car! We went to Sitges first which is a beautiful seaside town and then to Tarragona which has some really excellent Roman ruins - the best we have seen except for in Rome and Pompeii.
The roman ruins were very interesting and Sitges a beautiful seaside stop. Our Guide Marius was very knowledgeable and added greatly to the tour.
