We traveled with six adults for a 2 day vacation in Barcelona and then a 7 day cruise and back to Barcelona for the trip home. We used Bohigas airport transfer to pick us up at airport, carry us to Hotel. They then picked us up at Hotel to transport us to the cruise ship. They then picked us up from the port after the cruise to take us back to airport. On all three occasions, the service was impeccable!! The drivers were very attentive and courteous. We had alot of bags and all fit very well in the van which was so comfortable we felt like celebrities. Without question, these guys are the REAL DEAL!! If you're planning a trip to Barcelona and need any transport, make sure you have Bohigas airport transfer in your speed dial. I promise you won't be disappointed. I need to mention one thing, they will keep you updated by text. We arrived about 2 hours earlier from our cruise than our scheduled pickup. I just text them that we were at the port and they came to pick us up with 20mins. We were very happy about that. Outstanding!!!!!!!!!

2. Marian Route: Lourdes, Montserrat & Meritxell

Antonio Falcon

This is a great opportunity for christians to visit three nice sanctuaries located in 3 different countries: Montserrat is the main country in the spanish region of Catalonia. You can touch the Black Madona and ask for your miracle. In Sanctuary of Meritxell you will enjoy the small villages and countryside and the story of this beatiful lady, patron saint of Andorra, a tiny country by the Pyrenees. Our Lady of Lourdes is by far the most popular lady and sanctuary all over France. Don't forget to fill up a bottle with holy water from the place the girl Bernadette found Mary, mother of God.
