Testimonial 1
Have tried to come up with something that wasn’t good – but can’t. Very happy. It got a little expensive with the champagne at the nightclub, but we can only blame ourselves…

Thanks for a great week. Everything has been very good, and everyone is happy. Restaurant Llamber is without a doubt most appreciated by all.
The best tapas I’ve ever eaten and the atmosphere there was amazing.

We have had a fantastic journey from start to finish. We’ve eaten great food. Great restaurants you have found to us, thank you!
Saturday’s bus ride to the various farms was much appreciated, especially the variation of the visit, from the little family farm to the state-of-the-art pig farm. Great to have Eva as a guide, who has lived in Barcelona for 30 years. Very knowledgeable on everything!
It’s not a single negative detail, possibly that it was hard to get into the pants this morning.
