Girona, Figueras & Cadaqués Day Trip
Description
If you find yourself in Barcelona and wish to escape to the scenic beauty of the Costa Brava, consider joining this remarkable excursion to Girona, Figueras, and Cadaqués, three essential destinations in Catalonia!
Details of the Day Trip
We will gather at Plaça d'Anna Lizaran in Barcelona, where our journey to Girona, Figueres, and Cadaqués will commence. Excited? Let's begin!
Our first destination is Girona, renowned for its stunning historical district. You will have 1.5 hours to leisurely explore this remarkable old town. Be sure not to overlook the famed Jewish quarter, one of Europe's best-preserved sites.
Next, we'll reconvene and travel to Figueres, a key transport link between Spain and France. Here, you'll have approximately 1.5 hours to delve into the local cuisine of the Alt Empordà region or simply stroll around at your own rhythm.
Our journey will then lead us to Cadaqués, one of the most picturesque villages on the Costa Brava. With its charming white houses, serene sea, and majestic mountains, this quaint fishing village is undeniably captivating. Upon arrival, we will meander through its narrow streets and ascend to the Church of Santa Maria.
After approximately 11 hours of exploration, we will return to our original meeting point in Barcelona to conclude our day.
