From Barcelona, you will travel to the historic city of Girona, where the remains of a Roman and medieval past coexist harmoniously with the present, offering a complex image full of contrasts. Get lost in the maze of narrow streets and travel back in time in the best-preserved Jewish quarter in Europe. Admire the Cathedral, with the widest Gothic nave in the world, and marvel at the colorful spectacle of houses along the Onyar River, which divides the city in two. Due to its beautiful and historic landscape, the medieval center was chosen for some of the most important scenes in the popular Game of Thrones series. Whether it's its many bridges that cross the river or its strong medieval walls, Girona offers its visitors an exciting panorama.
After exploring Girona, you'll head all the way to the Costa Brava, north of Catalonia's sunny Mediterranean coast. Before you go fully into nature, you will discover the picturesque village of Pals. This ancient medieval village was once a fortress, still with idyllic cobbled streets and picture-perfect squares. Its towers and other viewpoints offer the best views over the Mediterranean Sea and will allow you to see even the fields and the Empordà plains that stretch on the horizon.
Next, continue to the coast, where you will enjoy the most breathtaking views: green mountains, the rugged relief of the coast and small villages with whitewashed houses built around the surf of the Costa Brava. You will fall in love with Calella de Palafurgell, a traditional fishing village that fully retains the charm of its past. Before exploring the surrounding area, we will take some time to relax and taste some of the delicious local cuisines.
The Caminos de Ronda, which you will see near Calella, take visitors to discover the most secret corners of the region. Fishermen, watchmen and smugglers used these paths in the past, which allow you to explore the coastal landscape. Follow the paths to discover the area's most popular beaches, as well as hidden coves and cliffs. If time permits, take a dip in its crystal clear waters, surrounded by unspoiled nature.
After a day of emotions, you will return satisfied to your hotel or apartment in Barcelona.
