TOUR DESCRIPTION & ITINERARYIf walking sun-kissed rocky coastlines with crystal clear blue waters and unforgettable views if your thing, then you've found paradise hiking Costa Brava. We will pick you up at your hotel to drive north to the Costa Brava. Upon arrival, we will stop for a coffee overlooking the coast before starting our hike along paths that hug the Mediterranean, where you'll discover some of the most unique and picturesque spots of the Costa Brava.
The Costa Brava coastal trails are a series of paths, built by fishermen and the police force who patrolled the coast on the lookout for smugglers. Several parts have been lovingly restored, providing visitors a unique means to explore and hike the coast, its little coves and quaint fishing villages. You will hike one of the most scenic sections of the trail near Calella de Palafrugell and Llafranc. You’ll pass gorgeous pine groves, flowering shrubs, small fishing villages, stately villas, historic watchtowers, secluded coves and pristine beaches – you’re never far away from a fabulous vista of the rugged coastline and the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. The route you will enjoy connects the different villages along the Costa Brava. Starting in a typical white washed coastal village, enjoying more of our hike we will pass through another village and end at a cove where we can take a dip in the crystal clear waters. Don't worry, we have your back when it comes to snorkelling gear! We know it is not the easiest thing to make room for in your luggage. In between hiking & swimming, you can enjoy a wonderful gourmet picnic of local goods with the sea literally lapping at your feet! WHAT'S INCLUDED

"Awesome tour!"
My wife and I booked the sights tour with a private car. The driver picked us up in a very nice Mercedes and Nancy proceeded to show us around this large city - without having to walk for hours! The knowledge she has of Barcelona and the Gaudi sites is unreal! She really brought the Sagrada Familia to life and showed many, many small and interesting details. The last hour walking tour through Barri Gotic was very cool as well - without her experience we would have never noticed dozens of interesting sites.

"Making Barcelona Special"
Nancy added tremendously to the success of this trip. Not only was her pre-trip advice about how to go about seeing things, getting tickets, and restaurant advice indispensable, the knowledge, history, and anecdotes she shared during the outings captivated the attention of everyone. Personally, I really appreciate the value added by a great tour guide over trying to read a tour book on the fly. Enchanting Barcelona Tours can make a big difference to how much you get out of a trip to Barcelona.
