Welcome to your tour with Europamundo!We’ll travel to northern Catalonia, starting with a visit to Girona. Here, you’ll have time to explore the city’s magnificent historic center, filled with medieval architecture and Roman, Arab, and Hebrew influences. We recommend visiting the Cathedral of Saint Mary, an impressive Gothic structure located in the upper part of the city, as well as the old Jewish quarter, known for its narrow, picturesque streets. Next, we’ll head to the charming medieval town of Besalú. You’ll have time for lunch and to explore its quaint streets, the impressive, fortified stone bridge, the castle, the Jewish baths, and the old pilgrim hospital. After lunch, we’ll continue into French Catalonia, stopping in Collioure, a small coastal town full of charm. You can enjoy its beautiful beach, wander through the port and narrow alleys, and visit the impressive castle, built on an ancient Roman castrum that once housed the court of the kings of Mallorca. If you’re interested, you can also visit the tomb of the poet Antonio Machado. In the evening, we’ll arrive in Carcassonne, considered Europe’s finest fortified city. We suggest taking a nighttime stroll to admire the beautifully lit walls and enjoying dinner at one of the many charming restaurants in the Cité.
