Empordà Wine & Girona: Private 2-Day Tour from Barcelona

Two-day private escape from Barcelona to the Empordà wine country and Girona offers a concentrated taste of northeastern Catalonia. Starting with hotel pickup in Barcelona, this curated journey pairs boutique winery visits and premium tastings with a night in a carefully selected boutique hotel and a slow, private tour of Girona’s historic quarters the next day. The region’s defining features—vineyard terraces sloping toward the Costa Brava, scrubby Mediterranean maquis and compact medieval villages built in pale stone—shape each stop.

On day one you travel through the Baix Empordà, where small family-run bodegas focus on indigenous grapes and terroir-driven bottlings. Tastings emphasize local varietals and winemaking techniques; guides translate technical notes into flavors you can place: saline-mineral hints from limestone soils, aromatic lifts from sun-warmed clay and the cooling influence of sea breezes on coastal vineyards. Lunch pairs local olive oil, fresh seafood and slow-cooked meats with regionally matched wines, turning the meal into part of the landscape lesson.

Afternoon visits usually include a walk through a stone-built medieval village such as Pals or Peratallada. Narrow cobbled lanes, defensive towers and small plazas reward a slow pace: listen for church bells, inspect ancient arches and step into family-run shops selling preserves, ceramics and local honey. Overnight accommodations are chosen for character and comfort; your host arranges a quiet room where you can sleep within earshot of old town walls.

On day two the private guide leads a relaxed tour of Girona’s historic quarter, where the Onyar river’s painted houses line the banks and the cathedral’s baroque façade looks down on twisting streets. Cultural context—Girona’s medieval Jewish quarter, river trades and a contemporary culinary revival—gives the stroll texture and meaning. Logistics are straightforward: private transport, personalized hosting and small-group limits (max eight) keep the experience intimate and flexible. The operator can accommodate dietary needs, language preferences and family seating requests. Timings vary with traffic, winery hours and seasonal openings, but the format guarantees a concentrated, comfortable immersion in wine, food and medieval landscape—ideal for travelers who want to leave city crowds behind without sacrificing ease.

Pickup and drop off at your hotel in Barcelona keeps transfers easy, and child seats can be arranged for families. Because the itinerary is private and small-group, the guide can adjust winery selections, meal timing and walking pace to suit mobility or tasting preferences. Book early during high season to secure preferred boutique hotels and wineries and arrangements.
