Meet your guide in Barcelona, then set off in an air-conditioned minivan to Girona. Learn about the city's links to the Games of Thrones and the cyclist Lance Armstrong from your guide.

While in Girona, take a leisurely stroll through the heart of the old town. Savour a light breakfast of coffee (cost not included) with a local speciality, a xuixo pastry.

After breakfast, hop back in the minivan towards France. Cross the border without hassle before arriving in in Collioure, a village on the southern French coast with a population of about 2000 people.

Explore the village briefly with your guide, then enjoy free time to have lunch and relax in front of the Mediterranean Sea. Later on, reconvene with your guide and return to Barcelona.

GOOD TO KNOW: Our itinerary is to visit Girona followed by Colliure, however, we may reverse this order depending on traffic conditions at the French border.
