We found the trip that sets off at 11am ("We?) which suited us far better and we loved the whole trip. Fascinating stone making up the odd shaped mountains and beautiful views across the countryside to the Pyrenees

5/5 - Excellent

An overnight stay rather than a day trip makes you appreciate the beauty and spirituality of this area much more.

Before going wear something warmer as it’s 5 degrees cooler than Barcelona City centre.
