We take a morning trip to Tossa de Mar, once a medieval town and now a popular seaside resort that has managed to retain all of its original charm and character. Away from the beach, discover the walled old town with its tangle of cobbled streets and enchanting castle.
Day 5 – Optional excursion to Barcelona with guided city tour (£22pp)
Today is a chance to join our optional excursion to Barcelona. We see all the highlights of this vibrant, beachside city with our guided city tour, including the bustling streets known as the Ramblas, Gaudi’s incredible cathedral, the Sagrada Familia, and the area built for the 1992 Olympics.
Day 6 – Day at leisure in our resort
Day 7 – Besalú and Figueres
A scenic drive along the coast awaits today. We stop first in Besalú, a beautifully preserved medieval town with a 12th-century Romanesque bridge over the River Fluvià, narrow arcaded streets and small squares. We then head to the charming town of Figueres, birthplace of the eccentric artist Salvador Dalí and a lovely spot for some souvenir shopping.
