Group / Hen Party Picnic

Posted By : 594sumanar
Used this company for two activities
1) Grazing picnic for hen party
2) Private catamaran trip

Honestly can't recommend enough!!! The decor was beautiful, the food was delicious and such a cute activity for a hen party. Same with the boat so beautifully decorated and we had more snacks/drinks ready for this too.

Only suggestion is avoid boat trip in March/ if the water is feeling quite choppy - quite a few of the girls felt sea sick so we couldn't enjoy it properly. I think it's a really fun and fab activity, so you should definitely do but just time it well :)

I booked this tour through Viator over the phone. I had some questions I wanted answered before paying for a non-refundable tour. First, since this was in celebration of a birthday, I wanted to make certain I would be able to have a cake. The Viator representative assured me this would not be a problem. Second, I specifically asked if this "picnic" would be able to be held on the beach, since that was one of the options. Again, the Viator representative assured me it could. I booked the tour and I paid the money through the link. Ultimately, the tour could not be held on the beach, even though the option was in the description and the business hosting the event did not have enough time to get a cake. I ran around Barcelona trying to find one. I would have never booked this knowing that we would be sitting on the grass next to the beach and not on the beach. However, these were not the biggest issues. The biggest issue occurred when I received the ticket with the booking details. The ticket had the wrong meeting information. Our reservation was booked for 7:00 pm (17:00) and consisted of 12 people. We were in three separate taxis and none of us had the correct meeting point. At 6:46, I received a what's-app from the Business owner stating "this is the exact location". However, our party began at 7:00 pm and eight of the guests had already arrived at the location sent to us by Viator on our confirmation. The four people in my car were still in the car enroute to the location because we were driving around trying to hunt down a birthday cake at the last minute. While we were heading for "Passeig del Mare Nostrum, 15, the address stated on our tickets, we had our driver change destination and arrived at the park near Bogatell beach a bit late. The remaining eight participants were trying to hail taxis near the "W Hotel", the location near Passeig del Mare Nostrum, 15, the spot their taxi drivers dropped them off. It took an inordinate amount of time to hail two new taxis and of course paid double taxi fairs. They arrived closer to 8:15 pm. At that point, the eight of them were quite annoyed and the party lacked some enthusiasm. I regret paying $700.00

I used Straws n Berries in May 2019 for my cousins Hen Du and it was incredible! Babet was a brilliant host and she was super responsive. It was the perfect surprise and girly afternoon.
I am heading back to Barcelona in October and have already messaged her as I'd love to do this again. The food and drinks were very tasty also!

Unfortunately we had to cancel our trip from London to Barcelona because of the corona virus. I just wanted to say a big thank you to Straws n' Berries for dealing with this in the most professional way. I to work in events and I know what a hard time we are all having and will have in the next couple of months. For such a small company to give me a voucher is very much appreciated as I thought I had lost my money all together. Thank you to both Babet and Maike for being so helpful and professional. Rest assured once this is over I will be re booking, but moreover I will keep recommending you guys to my friends.
Stay Safe!

I had to organize a suprise for the birthday of my two best friends, they had mentioned that they would like to do something out of the ordinary whilst we where in Barcelona. I contacted Strawsnberries and they helped me plan it all. It turned out to be one of the best surprise ever! I loved it, the food was amazing and so where the bottles of wine my friends wont be able to top this easily!

Thanks again girls did an amazing job!

After an amazing picnic last year we decided to book back in again. Unfortunately with the circumstances that no one could predict, the ladies at StrawsnBerries have given us a voucher with out an expiry date, so we can use it in the future, lovely to have something to look forward too when we can finally get back to normal 😊

It’s so important now than ever to keep small business’s going, and we’ll keep recommending you to everyone we know as the service we have received is fantastic and the picnics are amazing!! So unique and nothing else like it out there!

Keep going girls, and we look forward to booking back in soon!

We had a picnic booked for next month, but due to the Carona Virus our flights got cancelled and so did all the activities we had booked in Barcelona, Straws 'n Berries were the only company who wrote us a really nice email and gave us a voucher to use for the FULL amount with no expiry date and to use by anyone.
This is very generous baring in mind they are a small business and must have had a really hard time with all the events being cancelled.

Thank you girls and good luck this season!

Super nice experience, the set-up is very cute and great to do with a bunch of girls, the picnic at the beach is lovely but they offer plenty of options. Everything well organised and delicious food, love it!
