Barcelona: Besalú Dali and wine tour

We leave from Barcelona to visit the village of Besalú.

Besalú is considered one of the most beautiful in Spain by National Geographic magazine, and of course one of the most photogenic, especially the old bridge of Besalú.

We walked across the Old Bridge of Besalú; it is believed to have been built in the 11th century over a Roman bridge, but was rebuilt in the 14th century. After the destruction it suffered in the civil war it was rebuilt again. It consists of two angled spans and in the center is the tower with a small arch. We visited the center of the city, flooded with streets and facades as part of its medieval heritage. During the tour we visit the ecclesiastical monuments found in the town, such as the churches of Sant Pere, Santa Maria and Sant Vicenç, which alternate Romanesque and Gothic elements. For its part, the old Jewish quarter is one of the best preserved in the peninsula.

After this medieval walk, we will stop at the DALI Museum in Figueres, where the surrealist world awaits you. This museum, designed by Dalí himself, is a work of art in itself, with its extravagant facade and unique installations that capture the essence of the famous artist.

At the museum, we will spend time admiring some of Dalí's most famous works, including paintings, sculptures and various installations that challenge the mind. For those who are not museum lovers, we can assure you that the Dali Museum exceeds all expectations, not only for his paintings, but for his way of understanding the world of art.

It is time to take some time for lunch. Depending on the gastronomic expectations of each client, we offer various culinary options, such as a restaurant with an authentic Mediterranean flavor in a village 15 minutes from Figueres, or a typical Spanish tapas restaurant.

In the afternoon, more relaxed, we will visit a winery in l'Emporda, famous for its wines with Denomination of Origin. The region with more than 50 wineries will allow us to immerse ourselves in the wine landscape that combines tradition and modernity.

Upon arrival at the winery, we will participate in a guided tour, where you will learn about the winemaking process from the vineyard to the bottle. They will explain how the climate and terrain affect the character of the wines produced. Finally we will have a tasting of the different varieties produced in the winery.

Finally, we will close this adventurous day by returning to Barcelona.
