Carbon Neutral Trip
Spin your way through volcanic hills, Pyrenean peaks and Dalí’s surreal dreams. Cruise the Costa Brava, pedal through postcard-perfect villages, and savour flavours fresh from Figueres farms. Top it off with Spain’s ultimate Dalí whisperer at his whimsical theatre-museum. By trip’s end, you'll melt like one of Salvador’s clocks—blissfully, beautifully.


Explore the region’s rich culinary heritage through diverse experiences, from sheep's cheese and honey made on site accompanied by our favourite boutique producer's red and whites.

Journey into the captivating world of Salvador Dali’s world, exploring his birthplace in Figueres and seeing his work in the iconic surrealist museum, the Dalí Theatre-Museum.

Langauge
While Spanish is widely spoken, Catalan is also an official language in Catalonia, with 65% of the population using it, especially in areas like the Costa Brava.
