    It was an impressive tour. What I liked most was the excellent service, flawless car pick-up and good hotels where the price/performance ratio was just right.

    I wasn't sure what was the self-drive format but the bookings team was very helpful during the booking process and the service was on point! I loved the complete flexibility in exploring at my pace, we could linger longer at places we loved and skip through others more quickly. Accommodations were comfortable, well-located, and added to the overall enjoyment of the trip. Staying in locally-run hotels and boutique inns enhanced the cultural experience. Highly recommended for those seeking a blend of adventure and cultural exploration in Catalonia!

    Seamless from booking to the start of the trip. Destination Services Spain were very helpful in moving the dates after a couple of issues from my side. The information was clear, the hotels were lovely, and the freedom for this trip was exactly what I was looking for in a trip for an affordable price. We loved Catalonia and we had a great car, really lovely overall.
