Trip from Barcelona description

Join us in Barcelona for a 7 days tour. Visit Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, is a cosmopolitan city that we’ll be able to discover during 4 days, and then we’ll trip around Barcelona for a 3 days tour to visit Catalonia and one the most beautiful and fascinating nature areas of the Mediterranean landscapes that inspired Dali’s arts work. In this amazing tour you’ll enjoy many outdoor activities inside Natural Parks.
Our rich gastronomy offer, cultural & historical heritage and small charming villages get you a genuine taste of the Mediterranean way of life.
Cap de Creus Natural Park is surely Catalonia’s cream of the crop. The amazing ghostly geological formations of this Park touch a clear transparency of pristine sea waters to build the most beautiful coves in the Catalan country, while the white fisherman’s towns of Cadaqués and “El Port de la Selva” stand without discussion at the top of the most charming villages in Catalonia.
The Natural Park of the “Aiguamolls de l’Empordà” protects the most important remaining wetlands on the northern Costa Brava coast, and it was declared as a protected area after a long and intense defense campaign begun in 1976, intended to avoid the unsustainable development of the area. It contains a large quantity of birds´ nests. Vital as a staging area for a wide variety of water birds, this network of freshwater also holds good numbers of breeding and wintering birds.
Montgrí Medes Natural Park comprises the Medes Islands, the Montgrí mountain range (an impressive thirteenth-century castle on the summit) and the surrounding coast and the Baix Ter. It encompasses a range of diverse landscapes and Mediterranean coastal eco-systems, among which are the islands and coastal cliffs several nesting seabird species, and extensive limestone plateaus of semiesteparis Montgrí.
