Spain – Costa Brava & Barcelona

Experience one of Europe’s most well-known and pretty holiday coastlines. Enjoy sunning yourself on the endless beaches or exploring the rich beauties of the Catalonian cities, towns and villages.

Situated in the beautiful north-east corner of Spain, discover the Costa Brava with its seaside towns, mountain scenery and sparkling waters. With a wonderful climate, stunning coastline and great cuisine including delicious seafood, fresh vegetables, olives, rice and pasta, you can see why the Costa Brava remains so popular.

Our holiday base is the sunny beachside resort town of Roses, a charming old fishing village overlooking the Bay of Roses and perfectly positioned for an excellent value summer tour by the Mediterranean Sea. The resort is relaxed and friendly and has retained an historic ‘old town’ – picturesque by day, atmospheric during the evenings.

Spend your days in the sun, around the hotel pool or on the beach, take a stroll along the delightful palm-lined promenade, or sit back in a café and take in the atmosphere… simply lovely…!! You can have lots of time to relax and explore on your own whilst having the opportunity to join us on our included excursions to see more of this wonderful region. These include a full day visit to the bustling city of Barcelona, the Catalan capital and home to amazing architecture and spectacular shopping opportunities.

Overnight hotels on the outward and return journey will be conveniently located on our route on a bed and breakfast basis.

This is an ideal choice for:

– Sun seekers & coastal lovers
– Couples and friends looking for a European adventure
– Enjoying the scenic splendor of Spain and the Costa Brava
