What you can expect

  • Lose yourself in the cobbled medieval lanes of Girona, soak up the time-worn charm of the hilltop village of Pals, and dig your toes into the sand on the sun-drenched shores of the Costa Brava. With a private guide leading the way, immerse yourself in the history, tranquility, and rural landscapes of Catalonia.

    Meet your guide in the heart of Barcelona and hop in a comfortable vehicle for the ride north to Girona, a colourful metropolis that welcomes you to step into the past in the ancient town centre. Imagine a time when denizens of Rome walked these streets as you pass by the city's centuries-old fortifications and Roman walls, roam through the atmospheric Jewish Quarter with its porticoed squares, and peek into the luminous Banys Àrabs, a light-filled, 12th-century bathhouse built in the Moorish style.

    Take some time to poke around on your own, visiting a local museum or grabbing a bit to eat before you head inland to the gorgeous village of Pals. Wander the uneven streets and pass beneath stone arches to check out the sun-baked old buildings, and then continue on to the seaside town of Calella de Palafrugell. Enjoy free time on your own to walk among the tumble of whitewashed buildings, snap photos of fishing boats bobbing in the teal waters of the bay, or go for a cool dip at the golden beach before your return ride to Barcelona.
