Highlights
  • Lloret de Mar - We will take the motorway and after 1h15m we will be at Lloret de Mar, the main touristic village of Costa Brava.

We will have about one hour to explore this colorful and dynamic village with strong personality.

Along its unique beach promenade we will be able to enjoy great views of its beaches.

Walking through its narrow streets, which still have reminiscence of its recent maritime past, we will find plenty of shops to suit all tastes: from the latest brands to the typical beach bazaars.

In the middle of its most famous shopping street we will also be able to admire architectural jewels of great value such as Saint Roma church.

At approximately 11:30am we will go on board DOFIJETS, which will lead us to the neighboring village of Tossa de Mar. During the sailing trip we will be able to enjoy the unique and characteristic landscape of Costa Brava: a procession of different huge cliffs which have been shaped in fanciful forms over the centuries by the strength of sea and wind.

  • Tossa de Mar - At about 12:15 pm we will get to the emblematic village of Tossa de Mar, considered \

Additional Information

On this journey, we’ll be exploring the picturesque Girona coast, known for a century as the Costa Brava. Its name stems from the distinctive rocky, jagged and indented shoreline peppered with quaint coves nestled among pine woods and bathed in pristine water.

Costa Brava also owes its reputation to its charming villages. These former fishing towns, with their whitewashed walls and winding narrow streets, still hold onto their allure today.

We’ll uncover the southern portion of the Costa Brava by visiting two villages that encapsulate the spirit of this coastline. These two are contrasting yet complementary to each other, and by the time we return to Barcelona after a few hours, we’ll have a comprehensive understanding of the true essence of Costa Brava.

A must do trip if you are in Barcelona - The trip made it possible to visit so many places in just one day! Impressive experience. It was very well organized with professional and friendly guides. The entire trip was strictly on schedule and we still had a couple of hours of free time in Tossa de Mar for a delicious lunch in a local restaurant. Thank you!

The unique Costa Brava - The beauty of the Costa Brava is its own reward. You then add the beaches, the great food, the people, and Mediterranean climate and you have “magic” and a place you want to enjoy forever.

Would recommend the Costa Brava tour. - Great day in Costa Brava! Thank you for an amazing day! We really enjoyed the beaches and all the little stores. Although we came for the beaches the little shops were definitely worth checking out.

Can’t miss Costa Brava - Great tour of two beautiful Costa Brava towns and includes boat tour between the two towns. At one point the boat stops for glass bottom viewing which was only point during boat ride I felt bit queasy as I am prone to motion sickness. I only wish we had more time in each town. Monica our native Catalan guide was a wealth of knowledge. It was obvious she has been guide for many years and was an impressive polyglot.

Great trip, well-organised and friendly guides - Welcoming staff, and very approachable. Knowledgeable and helpful. Everything was well organised and we didn’t have to wait around. The only thing was that on our return, it was a hot day, and we had to walk 10 minutes to get to the coach outside the town. They couldn’t pick us up by the beach. My feet were hurting and I had knee problem, so it was a quite painful walk back to the coach for me.

A top trip favorite - This excursion made our family of 5’s favorite list from our European trip. It was so nice to see the seaside beach towns, get out on the beautiful water in the boat, and spend some time seeing the shops and restaurants while also getting beach time! We loved the free time we could spend doing what we wanted. We just wish it could’ve lasted longer and come back later in the evening. Tossa de Mar was so charming and we could’ve easily stayed longer. Thanks to Monika for being so friendly as our guide.
