Costa Brava Tours & Trips
Picture Spain's rugged northeastern coast where medieval villages meet Mediterranean beaches. Costa Brava runs from Barcelona to the French border, exploring Lloret de Mar's historic sites, charming coastal villages, and Barcelona's Gothic Quarter. Gaudí's Park Güell and Sagrada Familia provide architectural jaw-droppers, while Port Vell and Barceloneta beach offer beaches. Camp Nou for football fans, Montjuïc for views.

The whole trip was well organised and the accommodation was great. The buffet at the hotel always had lots of good options. The Après was amazing every night. Tess was the best tour guide we could have asked for and make the tour the best it could’ve possibly been. She was always positive, friendly and making sure everyone was happy.

Andreas • traveled in May
I did not know much about Andorra before this trip. I expected some nice days in the mountains, but this trp was much more. Already the last part of the transfer from Toulouse was very scenic. Our hotel Roc de St Miquel was located high in the mountains and offered stunning views - and thankfully it was not as hot as in the lowlands there. Also positive that the hotel was our base for the whole week, so we had not pack/unpack the whole time. The rooms there were better than I expected for a two star hotel. Excellent room keeping every day, clean and good beds. The owners of the hotels were our guides at the same time - and also they were excellent. We felt very welcome from the beginning and often sat around the chimney at night. We got usually breakfast and dinner at the hotel - and we never went to bed hungry. Packed lunch was available on order. Our days tours started not before 9:30, so no alarm clock was needed. The tours were no problem for people with normal fitness - even if the hikes included some steep passages. For me rafting was the most scary part, but also much fun. The seven days went by very quickly, which is perhaps the best compliment I can make. All of us were sad to leave, but we made all new friends and will probably return (in my case for more hiking in the wonderful mountain scenery).

Best tour companies for Costa Brava tours
Based on what our travelers tell us, ExperiencePlus has really nailed their cycling tours - we keep hearing great things about their guides and how smoothly everything runs. The hotels they pick are top-quality and their routes are well thought out. Explore's getting solid reviews for their tours too, particularly when it comes to their guides. Bert gets mentioned quite a bit by name, which says something nice about the personal touch they bring. They mix up activities nicely to keep things interesting but there's a bit of a hiccup with their flight bookings - some travelers have had mixed results there. For folks looking to hit the slopes without breaking the bank, Stoke Travel's Andorra weekends fit the bill. The après-ski scene is lively and the overall package is good value. We should mention though that one customer wasn't happy with how they handled a Covid cancellation - there were some issues with their refund process and customer service during that time.

Best time to visit Costa Brava
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter in Costa Brava brings a different energy, especially up in Andorra where the ski season kicks into high gear. The mountain adventures run from Barcelona, with morning departures that get you to the slopes by midday. Our TourRadar customers love how these tours include gear rental and lift passes, plus the guides help first-timers find their snow legs while experienced skiers can tackle more challenging runs. After skiing, you'll find lively aprés-ski scenes in places like Sort and Soldeu. Some tours mix skiing with cultural stops in medieval villages and also wine regions, which works particularly well for groups where not everyone wants to ski every day.
- February 2026 popular 16 tours
- Spring 2026
Spring tours really shine in Costa Brava, when temperatures are perfect for cycling and hiking. The bicycle routes from Girona follow old railway paths called Carrilets, which our customers say are ideal for getting comfortable on two wheels. You'll pedal through fields of early wildflowers to spots like Sant Feliu de Guixols, Palamos and also Calella de Palafrugell. The Pyrenees multi-activity tours are excellent in spring too - the Noguera River runs strong from snowmelt, making it prime time for whitewater rafting near Sort. Walking tours around Aigues Tortes National Park let you spot wildlife waking up from winter, with guides who know just where to find rare birds and mountain flowers.

- Summer 2026
Summer brings perfect conditions for combining coastal and mountain activities. The family adventure tours based in Sort mix morning hiking in cooler mountain air with afternoon swimming and kayaking on the Noguera River. Our TourRadar customers particularly enjoy how the guides adjust activities to different ages and abilities - kids can try easier versions of canyoning while parents tackle more challenging routes. The cultural tours from Barcelona work well in summer too, starting early to explore Gothic Quarter streets before the heat kicks in, then heading to beaches like Barceloneta for afternoon swims and sunset catamaran cruises along the coast.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall offers rich experiences in Costa Brava as crowds thin out and temperatures stay pleasant. Art-focused tours really shine this season - you'll explore Dali's birthplace in Figueres and the whitewashed artist haven of Cadaques without summer crowds. The wine tours through Penedes take on special meaning during harvest, when you can actually see the grape picking in action. Our travelers particularly enjoy walking tours through medieval towns like Besalu and Pals this time of year, when morning mists add atmosphere to ancient stone streets and you can linger over long lunches of traditional Catalan dishes in uncrowded restaurants.

What Makes Costa Brava So Special?
You'll find something truly unique along Costa Brava's coastline it's actually called the "Wild Coast" and when you see those dramatic cliffs and hidden coves you'll understand why. It's really different from Spain's southern beaches the landscape here is just incredible especially around Cap de Creus Natural Park which sits at the very eastern tip of Spain's mainland.
Where Can You Find Natural Areas and How Do You Get There?
Cap de Creus Natural Park is absolutely worth exploring and you can cycle there from Cadaques or join a guided hike. If you're up for something really special check out Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park the guided walks are fantastic and they'll take you in Land Rovers to reach gorgeous spots like Sant Maurici Lake that you wouldn't easily get to otherwise.
