What a wonderful way to explore towns outside of Barcelona. Our guide David was very accommodating, an absolute pleasure to travel with, and extremely knowledgeable about areas we traveled to. We explored hidden ancient cities we would have never found on our own and ended with a delicious lunch overlooking the Mediterranean in Costa Brava ( which he arranged for us in advance). The van was spacious for the five of us and very comfortable for the long drive. I would absolutely recommend this tour for anyone wishing to see the beautiful areas outside of the city! Thank you David for the best day of our trip!

We travelled with Gaspar through the beautiful costal towns of Costa Brava and then on to Girona. Gaspar was friendly, communicative and made sure to show us all the “must-sees”! We thoroughly enjoyed our day and highly recommend this wonderful trip to all who wish to see the beauty of Catalonia!

Your first stop of the day is the historic city of Girona, where the remnants of its Roman and medieval past seamlessly blend with modern life, creating a striking contrast.
Stroll through its maze of narrow streets and step back in time as you explore Europe’s one of the best preserved Jewish Quarter.
Within the city's ancient walls, take a leisurely stroll through the Jewish Quarter, one of its most iconic areas. Wander through a labyrinth of narrow alleys and courtyards that still retain the charm of medieval times. As one of the best-preserved Jewish quarters in the world, it stands as a testament to the significant role Jewish culture played in Girona’s history.
In the Força Vella (Old Town), marvel at the Girona Cathedral, perched at the highest point of the city.
Dating from the 11th to the 19th centuries, the cathedral showcases a mix of architectural styles, from its Romanesque monastery to its grand Baroque façade. The cathedral's most impressive feature is its expansive Gothic nave, which at 22 meters (72 feet) wide, is the largest of its kind in the world.
Marvel the colorful façades of the houses on the shores of the Onyar River that flows through the city and engenders this warm atmosphere of colored houses and symbolic image of Girona.
You will enjoy various and beautiful panoramic views, either from the various bridges that cross Onyar river or from the top of the medieval walls of the city.
One of the bridges was designed by the famous Gustave Eiffel in 1877. The modern feel of the ironclad Eiffel Bridge contrasts sharply with the old buildings of the city.
Before continuing to Costa Brava, make a stop in the calm town of Pals.
This charming medieval village, once a fortified stronghold, is a maze of picturesque cobblestone streets and quaint squares. From its towers and viewpoints, you’ll be treated to stunning vistas of the Mediterranean Sea.
Take in the sweeping views of Pals' lush green fields and the expansive Empordà plains, stretching endlessly into the horizon.
Take in the lush greenery of the mountains, the rugged coastline, and the charming whitewashed villages.
Pause in Calella de Palafrugell, a quaint and traditional fishing village that retains its authentic, charismatic charm. Afterward, explore the stunning surroundings and soak in the beauty of this coastal gem.
Not far away Calella, take the opportunity to discover the less explored nooks of the region thanks to the Caminos de Ronda, an old route used by fishermen, guards and smugglers.
From the most popular beaches in the area to the most inaccessible caves and cliffs.
To finish your day in beauty, take the opportunity to dive in the crystal clear waters, before to go straight back to your accommodation in Barcelona.
