Beautiful Hike and a Day We’ll Never Forget - We did the hiking tour to Costa Brava and Tossa de Mar, and it was a wonderful experience. Stepan was super friendly, very easy to talk to.
He picked us up right in the center of Barcelona and later dropped us off also there, although he was willing to drop us off in a location that were convenient for us, which we really appreciated.
During the hike, he shared lots of interesting facts about the local nature and rock formations, and created a really enjoyable atmosphere throughout the day. He offered to take pictures of us (that was so sweet!).
Landscapes are breathtaking.
He also took us to a great restaurant, which was a nice touch.
Funny enough, the tour happened on the day of the national blackout in Spain (April 28, 2025) — but instead of ruining anything, it actually made the day even more memorable. We ended up being part of a historic moment, and had a good laugh about it!
I definitely recommend this tour if you want to see Costa Brava from a more natural and relaxed perspective.
Thank you so much, Stepan! We hope to see you again for another great tour time when we are back to Barcelona.

Costa Brava - High winds were on course for the day, so Stepan chose an area that was protected from the winds. He molded the day to what we wanted to do. We did a lot of walking and he pointed out many local facts and fauna.
Lunch was amazing and authentic and after another hiking tour with much history of the area.
I would highly recommend this tour if you like to get exercise while learning about the area from someone who is knowledgeable.

An absolutely perfect day. - This was the most amazing day of our trip. Our guide Fivros was absolutely wonderful. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, wildlife, plants and the sea. He took the time to answer all of our questions, made sure we were safe and having a good time. We hiked for about 90 minutes then had a swim break at a beautiful beach with a bar. Another 90 minutes hike and we arrived at Tossa de Mar, a heavenly little town with lots of shops, restaurants and two beach areas to choose from. While we had an hour or so of free time Fivros hiked back to the van and picked us up in the town. This was a very well planned tour with the most amazing sea views.

Worth your time - This was my first hike- thinking it would be a fun thing to do -- this was a very strenuous hike for the non experienced - but it was totally worth it! Beautiful scenery, beautiful beaches and the meal was a plus -- the best part was our tour guide - he helped me when the climbing was scary and he always made sure I was doing good - HE WAS FANTISTIC!

Beautiful views and tasty food! - This was a great way to see a different part of Barcelona. We got a good workout in and got to see some breathtaking views. It was an amazing experience. Stepan provided evenly spaced bathroom breaks, hiking breaks, food recommendations, and gave us tips when snorkeling.

Costa Brava June 2024 - The views were breathtaking and the beaches were some of the best I’ve ever seen, but what had the biggest lasting impact on my girlfriend and I was our guide, Stepan. He constantly went above and beyond, whether it was explaining an obscure fun fact about something along the trail, telling us about the history of the region, his efforts during the snorkeling session, or dropping us off close to our hotel at the end of the day. These things, among others, really went a long way in making the trip an experience we will never forget!
