Description
This Signature Private Tour takes you to the beautiful French seaside village Collioure in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine district, in a private group with 2 guides and Barcelona hotel pickup & dropoff
Your guides pick you up early at your hotel or apartment in Barcelona. We drive north from Barcelona and cross the border into France. After a short breakfast stop on the way, we arrive at the beautiful French seaside village Collioure in the Languedoc-Roussillon district which is famous for its scenery and wines.
Collioure has its own wine AOC - Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée and many small boutiques in Collioure offer wine tastings of local wines. The beauty of Colliure has always attracted and inspired artists, among them Matisse, Picasso, Dufy, Derain, Rennie McIntosh and Maillol.
You can see reproductions of Matisse and Derain's works at the actual locations where they were painted and the village has many small galleries with contemporary artists who still flock to Collioure.
In the summer guests can have a dip in the clear warm Mediterranean waters. From Collioure we travel back towards the Spanish border following the coastal wine route with panoramic views of the south of France and Catalan Costa Brava coastline.
We either have lunch (not included in tour price) in Collioure or one of the quaint seaside villages on the coastal wine road.
This is where France meets Spain and where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean sea and the steep terraced vineyards can only be worked entirely by hand. After the tour through the wine country we head inland and back to Barcelona.
Enjoy a top-rated experience, with two knowledgeable guides ensuring an unforgettable day of exploration.
