We loved the day we spent hiking and tasting Catalonian cuisine with Rhys! Rhys was a great and knowledgeable guide whose passion was contagious. Highly recommend if you’re looking for an activity that isn’t too strenuous while still being interesting and fun! (Honestly just the good for lunch is worth the price!)

If you're looking for an experience outside of the typical THIS is it. If you're not, you should still book this. Rhys is a fantastic guide. The picnic was delicious and the views from the hike are truly the best you'll find in Barcelona.

We had a fantastic hike with Rhys and a fun group of fellow travelers. The food for the picnic was a high point, Rhys was so organized and provided a tasty variety of local foods. One of our favorite times in Barcelona, I would totally recommend getting away from the crowds and taking this hike!
