itinerary: Start your day with a scenic journey from Barcelona to the historic city of Girona, where the remnants of Roman and medieval history beautifully coexist with modern life. Wander through the labyrinth of narrow streets and immerse yourself in one of Europe’s best-preserved Jewish quarters. Admire the stunning Girona Cathedral, featuring the world’s widest Gothic nave, and be amazed by the vibrant houses along the Onyar River, which divides the city. Girona’s medieval center, with its ancient bridges and towering walls, was also chosen as the setting for several iconic scenes in Game of Thrones. With its rich history and captivating views, Girona promises an unforgettable experience.
After exploring Girona, continue to the stunning Costa Brava along Catalonia's Mediterranean coast. Your first stop is the picturesque village of Pals, once hosted an ancient medieval fortress with cobbled streets and charming squares. From the village’s towers and viewpoints, enjoy panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and the Empordà plains that stretch on the horizon.
Next, head further along the coast, where you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of lush green mountains, and small villages with whitewashed houses nestled along the rugged coastline. Discover the charm of Calella de Palafrugell, a traditional fishing village that has retained its timeless character. Take time to relax and savor delicious local cuisine before continuing your adventure.
The Caminos de Ronda, located near Calella, are coastal paths that were once used by fishermen, watchmen, and smugglers. These scenic trails lead to some of Costa Brava’s most beautiful beaches, hidden coves, and dramatic cliffs. If time allows, take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters, surrounded by unspoiled nature.
After a day filled with history, breathtaking views, and unforgettable experiences, return to your hotel or apartment in Barcelona, filled with memories of Girona and the Costa Brava.
