Our first stop will take us to the heart of Catalonia. We will explore the hidden gems of Barcelona’s historic streets and culture while including a few of the city’s must-dos in an alternative way. We will participate in a wide range of activities beyond the tourist track while dining locally and digging deeper into its multicultural history. We will eat, dance, and bike our way through the city and find out how the city itself is like a mosaic, similar to those found in Gaudi’s mystical Park Güell. If you love food, culture and community, these days will fill your cup.

Today we will head to the picturesque Costa Brava, where we will explore the rugged coastline that make this region what it is. As Costa Brava is a region that would take weeks to properly traverse, this will be a delightful tease for a future trip to this area. We will be sure to indulge in the local delicacies and hidden coves of this vibrant coast before heading back to Barcelona to continue our adventure.

Arriving in Mallorca, we will slow our pace to fully enjoy this island’s idyllic landscapes. Here we will learn about the land, its history, and its present directly from locals and spend two nights in a rural agroturismo. We will explore the relationship between land and food and talk to those responsible for bringing our meals from the field to our forks. From incredible hiking and secluded beaches to the highlights of Mallorcan cuisine and bodegas, the days we spend here will restore and recharge us.

After our exploration of Mallorca, we will return to Barcelona for one epic day before flying out on Sunday. We will get up close and personal with La Sagrada Família, grab last minute keepsakes, and dance our way into the evening. With sun-kissed skin and memories in tow, we will say our goodbyes.
