Overview

Explore the picturesque villages and dramatic coastal cliffs of Costa Brava on this full-day tour from Barcelona. Costa Brava, which translates to ‘rough coast,’ gained its name from the area’s rocky, jagged coastline, which forms into islets and small coves with crystal-clear waters. Stop in the fishing towns with whitewashed walls and narrow alleyways and venture out to the rugged coastline and protected parks such as Cap de Creus, the Emporda Marshes, and the Marine Reserve Medes Islands.

This was an outstanding trip that offered a great variety of experiences of Costa Brava all in one day. We highly recomend it. Our guide Monica was exceptional with her commentary on the area. She had extensive knowledge while at the same time didn't overload us with too much detail. Great value for money.

Costa Brava Day Trip

Sandra_A, Aug 2018

This was a great tour with stunning views and locales. Transportation was comfortable. Guides were very helpful and knowledgeable. This trip involved a lot of walking and there were many places where there were stairs going up and down. You should be prepared for that, but it was a wonderful day experience that I would not have wanted to miss.

Judy J, Jul 2017

It was really nice to get away from the busy city of Barcelona. The bus was very comfortable and the tour guides were amazing. I felt like this tour was a bit too long and if I had to do over I would have purchased the half day. There was not a lot of time on our own which would have been nicer and we expected to see more on the boat ride we didn't see many fish. Also there is a lot of walking on unstable ground in some areas. Be sure to wear a good pair of walking shoes. There are some hills to climb and lots of areas with stairs.

piabanerjea, Jun 2017

Beatiful walk along a gorgeous coast. A lot of activities into one day. Would have preferred to have more time walking from town to town. Tour guide Elena was well informed and gave lots of good information. The tour guides spoke to us as if we were in grade school and sometimes rushed us ,which didn't really take away from the grand day but something that the guides should be aware of.

Marilyn M, Jun 2017

The Costa Brava day trip was a great day trip. It was nice to get out of Barcelona and see the coast. We traveled in a comfortable bus to several places. We had some time at each place to explore on our own. Our guide was very good. We walked a small portion of the Camino Ronda, which is an easy coastal hike that takes you along coastal villages and fishing towns. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed a boat trip around some rocky islands. They let us go down to observe the fish not much to see. Also stopped at a medieval town along the way. Very fun day!

This is a great tour. It is a long day with so many places to see and visit. The boat excursion is very peaceful and relaxing. You end the day with the tour of a Greek and Roman ruins. We are taking another tour with Barcelona Holiday this coming June 2017.

EDWARD B, Nov 2016

We decided to take this tour our last day in Barcelona and it was the best one. The spots we visited were amazing but the walk between the first villages and the boat trip were our favorites. We highly recommend this tour.

Barcelona is such a wonderful city...

James S, Oct 2016

Barcelona is such a wonderful city but after a few days it was truly refreshing to escape the city noise and visit the Costa Brava region. We fell in love and would love to plan another vacation with lots of time in this region. This tour covered a lot of territory and is great if you want to see lots of sights. We thoroughly enjoyed the boat ride and underwater viewing and just wish we could have stayed on the beach longer. Seeing the ruins wasn't that important to us since we just returned from Athens and Pompeii but it was interesting. It was obvious our tour guide Tony was working very hard to keep his English understandable and I appreciated his attitude and kind nature.
