Exploring Medieval Towns with Passion and Expertise.

Published on Jan, 2025

Xavi, was incredibly informative, sharing fascinating details about the history and culture of Besalú and the other medieval towns we visited. What stood out the most was how personal he made the experience, he even gave us a thoughtful souvenir to remember the trip. Xavi’s main concern was ensuring we had a great time. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even offering fantastic local food recommendations. You could tell he truly enjoys his job and is passionate about sharing the rich history of the area, which he takes immense pride in. I recommend Xavi enough. His enthusiasm and dedication made it a highlight of our trip!
