Costa Brava & Medieval Towns Tour
Costa Brava & Medieval Towns Tour
At the indicated time, we'll meet at the River Café, in Plaça Sant Feliu in Girona, and start our guided tour of the Costa Brava.
First, you'll visit the coastal towns of Llafranc and Calella, which are famous for their small sandy coves and historic fishing traditions. After exploring the clifftop paths characteristic of this region, you'll head to Begur, a beautiful Medieval town located on top of a hill. Here, you'll have time to climb up to the ruins of the castle, where you'll have spectacular views across the Gulf of Roses.
The next stop on your tour is Pals. Climbing plants, moats, walls, and Romanesque towers make this town one of the prettiest on the Costa Brava. This area is known for its rice fields, and you'll have the opportunity to sample this locally-grown product later, making a stop at one of the town's traditional restaurants. The star dish here is rice casserole (not included). After eating, enjoy a stroll through the artisan market stalls, reaching the Torre de las Horas, an ancient tower that is the only remaining vestige of the Castle of Pals, which was destroyed in the 15th Century.
Not far from Pals, you'll find one of the best conserved Medieval towns in all of Catalonia: Peratallada, whose name means "carved stone". From this pretty town, you'll head back to Girona, stopping at La Bisbal d’Empordà on the way to admire the traditional ceramic produced there.
You'll arrive back in Girona at around 6 pm.
