Wonderful time with my mother and now we have a piece of our amazing trip that we get to cherish all the time - The shop was so vibrant, it drew me in from down the street! My mother and I had so much fun designing our own sandals and the staff was so nice and helpful!

Excellent Catalan experience - Anee was an excellent teacher! She taught us the history of espardenya (the original name for espadrilles) and the ingenuity of the Catalan people who invented these shoes. We had delicious tapas and conversation while we made our beautiful shoes. A must do experience for teens and up!

Took home darling Espadrilles after a really fun class. - This was a super fun class. The instructors were fabulous and we ended up with really cute Espadrilles to take home as a great reminder of our trip to Barcelona. My sister and I had so much fun doing this together. It's worth the time on your trip.
