Great intro to Sitges

Whiteline10, 15-10-2022

This is a great introduction to Sitges. Easy to follow unlike other tours I have done on my Spain visit this time. Well worth the $10!

Much better than expected -a nice experience.

I was a bit skeptical at first, but the whole experience was smooth and the tour was interesting. It was nice to be able to stop and shop, eat or dink whenever it caught your fancy. Good info in the narration, easy to follow directions, and very well paced. I would use this service again!
