Small Group Day Trips from Barcelona

Explore Catalunya is one of the leading day tour operators in Barcelona, offering a wide range of small group day tours around Catalunya. We have tours leaving every day with guaranteed departures.

As well as visiting some of the most popular destinations, your local guide will go out of their way to introduce you to hidden corners away from the normal tourist routes.

Our highly trained local guides are passionate about what they do, and they truly believe in our philosophy of combining guided visits with lots of free time, meaning you’ll not miss out on anything, but you’ll also have plenty of time to enjoy the day by yourself.

Some of the most popular places we visit on our day trips include: Montserrat Monastery, historic Girona, the mountains of the Pyrenees,Roman Tarragona, the stunning Costa Brava coastline, medieval villages, and even France, and Andorra.

From culture and history, from mountains and coastline, or from food and wine, you will find a day tour for you.

Discover the hidden secrets of Catalonia on one of our Small Group Day Trips and Tours from Barcelona.

On your own, but never alone!

SUSTAINABILITY & ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

 

Explore Catalunya is proud to have been awarded the Biosphere Certification for tour operators. We are fully committed to sustainability tourism, and to bring tourists to our region in a responsible and thoughtful way.

We believe that mass tourism can have a negative impact on both the environment and the many smaller businesses in the area.

At Explore Catalunya we specialise in taking small groups away from the heavily visited tourist attractions, and introducing them to sights and attractions that have escaped the crowds of tourists see on more established routes.

Part of our philosophy is to take introduce our customers to traditional family owned businesses, to put money back into local communities, and to go out of our way to visit like minded companies that share our values and concerns about the environment.

Office Manager

Nothing describes Christel better than fizzy and bubbly – a bit like her favourite drink! After living in London, Christel came back to Barcelona and put her degree in tourism to good use by joining us at Explore Catalunya. The office has never been the same since, from problem solving to customer care, she runs the office like a well oiled machine. Stress isn’t even a word she recognises. Much more than an employee, she is a super important member of the Explore family.
