Excursions and visits
Costa Brava Coastal Tour (optional, included on Silver Service). First, to Tossa de Mar, a typical Catalan coastal town with narrow cobbled streets, medieval walls, a 14th-century church and plenty of bars. Then it’s on to Lloret de Mar, the liveliest resort on the Costa Brava, and finally historic Blanes, once famous for its lace-making.
Barcelona (included); Guided Sightseeing (optional). Enjoy the delightful relaxed atmosphere, particularly along Las Ramblas. Our optional guided Barcelona sightseeing tour takes in many of the city’s sights, such as Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia, a spectacular church begun in 1882 and still under construction, the impressive 1992 Olympic Stadium and the bustling Las Ramblas, with free time to explore the bars, cafés and shops.
Girona and Besalu (included). Behind Girona’s charming colourful houses lining the River Onyar lies the Old  Town, with its imposing Gothic cathedral, maze of narrow streets and ‘Rambla de la Libertat’. We then make our way to the charming medieval town of Besalu.   
Catalan Country Tour (optional). We head to the cool of the wooded hills with our local guide, our first stop  being the delightful spa-town of Sant Hilari Sacalm. Enjoy a delicious Catalan lunch, before returning to the coast.
Montserrat (optional). Known locally as the ‘serrated mountain’. We travel through the mountains to the site of the 9th-century Benedictine monastery. Its beautiful Basilica and turbulent history make this a fascinating place to visit.
