Pass By: Explore Catalunya, Carrer Palau de la Musica, 1, 08010 Barcelona Spain

8.15am - You will join your tour at our office, which is right across from the world famous Palau de la Musica. You will meet your guide and have an introduction as to what to expect during the day. Your tour begins at 8.30am, but we always recommend arriving 15 minutes before.

Pass By: Eixample, Eixample, Barcelona, Catalonia

8.30am - You will leave Barcelona though the Example district of town. As you head out of the city, your guide will give you a brief history of Barcelona, before letting you sit back and relax on the 90 minute drive to Figueres.

Stop At: Dali Theatre-Museum, Gala-Salvador Dali Square, 5 Salvador Dali 5, 17600, Figueres Spain

10.00am All Year Long Schedules: You will arrive at the world famous Dalí Museum-Theatre in Figueres, the birthplace of Dalí, where you will be taken straight past the queues inside.
Step inside the surreal world of Salvador Dalí and find a museum like none other. Dalí wanted visitors to see his 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. Inside is a world of fantasy mixed with architecture mixed with paintings and sculptures. It’s a complete surrealistic experience.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Cadaques, Cadaques, Costa Brava, Province of Girona, Catalonia

1.00pm REST OF YEAR SCHEDULE September 1st - June 30th: After a morning discovering the art of Dalí, you will head to the beautiful coastal village of Cadaqués.
Famous for its white washed Mediterranean houses, narrow shady streets, and sandy bay, this is one of the most picturesque villages on the Costa Brava.
But what really stands out for many people is the dramatic drive there, which offers some of the best views in the whole of Catalunya. This is the perfect place for lunch. In the afternoon you will travel just a few minutes up the coast to the even smaller village of Port Lligat.

Duration: 2 hours

Stop At: Salvador Dali House, Portlligat, 17488 Portlligat Spain

3.30pm REST OF YEAR SCHEDULE September 1st - June 30th: Port Lligat is where Dalí sought the peace and quiet that truly inspired him. This stunning little bay is where he first built then enlarged a simple fisherman's cottage into a magnificent and unique home. You will have the chance to visit inside this unusual building. His studio looks as if he has just stepped out for a stroll, and thanks to the careful way it has been maintained, it's easy to image he is still living in the house. Your guide will regale you with stories about his life there and the, share some secrets about his unusual marriage to his beloved Gala.
NOTE: Your tickets will have been pre booked by the office. If you want to take advantage of this, please pay the guide during the day.

Enrica was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide and the driver was very safe. Although it was a very long day, the tour was most enjoyable. I would suggest that they offer bottled water on the tour. My only complaint was that it was a somewhat long walk to the bus from the office and, even worse, they let us off (because of traffic?) early instead of delivering us back to the Plaza Catalunya. We needed GPS to find our hotel.

On the way to Figueres, where Dali museum is located, our tour guide, Berta, provided a background on Dali from his childhood and how his upbringing influenced his work later. Then the tour, through a scenic rout, continued to Cadaqués and the neighboring Portlligat where Dali’s home was. Of course, Cadaqués is tourist attraction by itself. I bought the separate ticket to see inside of Dali’s home in neighboring Portlligat. Dali’s home was deeper and more private reflection of Dali’s thinking and his work.

If you are a fan of Salvador Dalí's work, the opportunity to visit his museum, his birth city, and his home all in one trip is the chance of a lifetime. On the drive from Barcelona, our guide, (Nu), provided us with an astonishingly in-depth retrospective on Dalí's life that provided plenty of context in which to better understand his oeuvre. Seeing the light playing on the water near his home in Port Lligat helped illuminate the inspiration he must have had for many of the seascapes in his paintings. I heartily recommend this tour to fans of Dalí and art history in general. You will not be disappointed!

We had Dali experience with Nou. She is a wounderful guide and the excellent driver. She told us a lot about Salvadore’s life and art. The day with Nou was amazing!
