Costa Brava dagtour met boottocht vanuit Barcelona
Beschrijving
Tijdens deze tour gaan we de kust van Girona bezoeken, 100 jaar geleden gedoopt als de Costa Brava. De naam is te danken aan de unieke rotsachtige, ruige en gesneden vorm kustlijn, samengesteld uit kleine baaien omgeven door dennenbossen en omhuld door kristalhelder water. De bekendheid van de Costa Brava is ook te danken aan de dorpen. Kleine vissersstadjes, met witgekalkte muren en smalle kronkelende straatjes, behouden vandaag nog steeds hun charme. We ontdekken het zuidelijke deel van de Costa Brava en bezoeken twee dorpen die de essentie van die kust vertegenwoordigen. Ze zijn tegengesteld aan elkaar, maar tegelijkertijd complementair, en na een paar uur na het verlaten van Barcelona, zullen we teruggaan met een compleet idee van wat de Costa Brava is.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
We nemen de snelweg en na 1u15m zijn we bij Lloret DE Mar, het belangrijkste toeristische dorp van de Costa Brava. We hebben ongeveer een uur om dit kleurrijke en dynamische dorp met een sterke persoonlijkheid te verkennen. Langs de unieke strandboulevard kunnen we genieten van een prachtig uitzicht op de stranden. Wandelend door de smalle straatjes, die nog herinneren aan zijn recente maritieme verleden, vinden we tal van winkels voor elk wat wils: van de nieuwste merken tot de typische strandbazaars. In het midden van de beroemdste winkel straat zullen we ook in staat zijn om architectonische juwelen van grote waarde te bewonderen, zoals Saint Roma kerk. Om ongeveer 11:30 uur gaan we aan boord van DOFIJETS, die ons naar het naburige dorp Tossa DE Mar zal leiden.Tijdens de zeiltocht zullen we kunnen genieten van het unieke en karakteristieke landschap van de Costa Brava : een processie van verschillende enorme kliffen die in de loop der eeuwen in fantasierijke vormen zijn gevormd door de kracht van zee en wind.
Om ongeveer 12:15 uur komen we aan in het karakteristieke dorpje Tossa DE Mar, dat wordt beschouwd als “de parel van de Costa Brava” omdat we in dit kleine gebied al die landschappelijke en historische elementen kunnen vinden die het zo’n welverdiende bekendheid hebben gegeven. De geschiedenis heeft zijn sporen nagelaten, van de Romeinen tot de emblematische versterkte Vila Vella of de oude binnenstad van Tossa, die in 1931 op de lijst van artistiek-historische monumenten werd geplaatst. Eenmaal aangekomen in Tossa DE Mar, beginnen we aan een wandeltocht vanaf het strand, langs de versterkte perimeter tot aan de vuurtoren op de top, voor degenen die geïnteresseerd zijn. Daar kunt u genieten van een prachtig uitzicht vanaf de kustlijn. Bij de afdaling gaan we door de smalle straatjes en stenen huizen van Vila Vella tot we bij de visserswijk komen. Van daaruit heb je vrije tijd om te lunchen. Dit dorp heeft het grootste gastronomische aanbod van de hele Costa Brava. Om 16.00 uur is de tour klaar en gaan we met de bus terug naar Barcelona. Aankomst om 17u30.

My partner and I travel to Barcelona on Tuesday, June 23 our first time very excited for this trip particularly this tour to Costa bravo and had booked a tour for 8:30 AM on June 24 we were promptly up at 6 AM taxi to a bus station, which was somewhat of a surprise as we were expecting a Marina and doubt it if we were in the correct location I called the tour operator at 8 AM as departure was at 8:30 AM and we were to be at the meeting place at 8:15 AM. They confirmed we were in the right location and to meet at platform 23. We waited until 8:40 AM and tried calling the tour operator back only to learn they had left without us. I attempted to have the tour refunded, but was told that given they had provided details in the app of the meeting place a refund would not be possible despite explaining that we did not see the details and that is why we had called the tour guide knew we were there and failed to make a courtesy call to ensure we boarded the bus. Needless to say this was extremely upsetting and disappointing. we found ourselves in Barcelona on a holiday with nothing opened and no Plant tour fortunately, we were able to find an alternate tour departing in 11 AM. This operator is not interested in the experience of their customers. I got the impression they are in it for money only and have no empathy or regard for tourist visiting Barcelona. I would like to say to book through a different tour operator however this is the only tour that goes to Costa bravo, needless to say we will not be rebooking or would not recommend this tour to anyone.
My college-aged daughter and I were glad we booked this during our time in Barcelona. Fun to get outside of the city, rub elbows with people from around the world, and enjoy some luxurious scenery. The boat ride between towns was a highlight of the day. Guides were attentive and made everything super easy. Only regret was not coming equipped to swim in the warm waters of Tossa Del Mar! Not sure what we were thinking!
Great family experience. The tour is a fantastic way to see some beautiful coastal towns and enjoy some very clean and crystal clear beaches. The tour was awesome, great transportation from meeting point to initial beach, initial beach to second coastal town via a boat (large boat), and back to our initial meeting point. I tend to believe the first beach was more enjoyable but the second beach had more options for food and shopping. My only semi-negative comment, by the time you get to the second beach, it is full and there aren't any chairs or umbrellas for rent. So be prepared.
I had a fantastic experience on the Costa Brava. Everything was well planned from start to finish, making the day relaxing and enjoyable. The transportation was comfortable and punctual, and the guide was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the region. The boat ride was definitely a highlight of the trip, offering spectacular views of the coast that you simply cannot appreciate from land. It was the perfect way to experience the natural beauty of the area. I also appreciated the free time to explore, take photos, and enjoy the local atmosphere. The balance between guided activities and personal time was excellent. Overall, this tour exceeded my expectations and provided great value for money. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Barcelona who wants to discover the beauty of Costa Brava in a comfortable and memorable way. A truly unforgettable day!
Be sure to be on time exactly the time they give you to meet up after each free time as the time for meet up is the time they head out to either the boat or back to the bus no room for being just a minute or two late, Very friendly knowledgeable folks. And very helpful as well. I only mention the above because most tour groups when they say meet back at a certain time ,you still hang around for a little while while the group gets organized, however this group the meeting time they give you means the time they are taking off and if you’re not there, you will be left behind. As they have a very tight schedule for boat and bus time with all the other tour groups being in line waiting their turn.
It was a good tour. The guides were great. There was plenty of time to explore. The ride on the boat was nice as well.
Great experience. The guides were wonderful and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this company and tour.
This tour is a really great way to explore the costal region of Catalonia. You have a lot of time to explore the two nice towns by yourself.
For the money I padu it was ok. The Guides were great
Great day in the Coasta Brava. We had a perfect amount of time with guide (bus, boat, walking tour) and free time to explore on our own. Mimi was our guide. She was very friendly and knowledgeable - proudly sharing the history of Catalonia! I recommend this tour!
