The Dalí Summer Tour

In just one day, get to know Dalí, an incomparable artist in an incomparable land. Follow the tracks of the surrealist genius in the north of Catalunya, the land that inspired the man.
Not only will you discover ‘L’Emporada’, an area of Catalunya that is rich in both history and stunning landscapes along its ‘Costa Brava’, but you’ll also come face to face with what inspired and created the amazing ‘Dalí’.
Follow in the footsteps of the man and discover the unforgettable character of the Costa Brava.
Depart from Barcelona and travel to Figueres, the birthplace of Dalí and home to the world famous Dalí Museum-Theatre.
Those wanting to visit the museum will find a museum like none other. Dalí wanted visitors to see this massive collection as a ‘whole’ work, and for this reason he wanted no catalogues and refused to have his works placed in chronological or subject order. Step inside Dali’s world of fantasy mixed with architecture mixed with paintings and sculptures. This is a complete surrealistic experience.
From Figueres the tour travels to the village of Pubol, where you will have ample opportunities to eat in a traditional Catalan restaurant.
In mid afternoon your tour will continue to Palamos on the coast in one of those rare hidden corners you can still find on the Costa Brava. Dalí visited this region several times in the 1930s. This place was famous for its artistic gatherings and parties, which were attended by Dalí.
Even today, the Costa Brava, with its transparent waters and pine forests, is not so different from the 1930s. This rocky coastline has been saved from high buildings and large scale tourism projects and still preserves that ‘wild aspect’ that gave the name to Costa Brava.

There is no better homage to Dalí and no better way to finish the day than to enjoy the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean.

You will be back in Barcelona by 8pm.
