The Dalí Winter 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 ‘Dali’.

Follow in the footsteps of the man and discover the unforgettable character of the Costa Brava.
We depart from Barcelona and set out for the beautiful coastal village of Cadaques, situated on the bay ‘at the end of the world’. Just a few minutes from the village is Port Lligat where Dalí sought the peace and quiet that truly inspired him. After seeing where Dalí spent some of his most precious moments, we will drive or walk back to the centre of Cadaques, the jewel of the Costa Brava. This typical fishing village is famous for its white Mediterranean houses, its narrow shady streets, and its sandy bay.
There will be time to enjoy the local seafood specialities on one of the numerous terraces facing the Mediterranean, or simply to relax and appreciate why this place inspired so many artists.
After lunch, we will head to Figueres, the birthplace of Dalí and home to the world famous Dalí Museum-Theatre. Here you will be able to explore where he was born on Monturiol Street, just off the popular Rambla, and visit the museum Dalí himself built around the former theatre where his first exhibition was held. Originally created and built in 1961, it was not officially opened until 1974.
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 Dalí’s world of fantasy mixed with architecture mixed with paintings and sculptures. This is a complete surrealistic experience.

You will return to Barcelona for about 7.30pm.
