About us – we are different!

Sue and Ross on the cliffs at Llanca ‘We came to walk – but GIRONA starred!  Ask Sue and Ross who have immersed themselves in Catalonia and all things Catalan. Congratulations on your energy, efficiency and excellence.’

1. Since 2001, we have given 600 walkers ‘THE CATALAN EXPERIENCE HOLIDAY’ !

GUIDED – B&B in a good GIRONA hotel for 12 to 24 – from 399 euros per person, per week. See ‘GUIDED holidays’ on the Menu.

 

Living Room at the Flat

SELF-GUIDED, SELF-CATERING - for up to 5 in our modern Llanca coastal flat near France.  See ‘SELF GUIDED’ holidays on Menu. 

 

 

2. We lead R.A. ’Rail Rambles’ until emigrating here in 2001. We’ve operated 10 months each year, and learnt  CATALAN (11th European language).  SO, WE ARE EXPERIENCED.  See ‘What Visitors Said about Us’ on Menu. 

3. We have ‘reccied’ DOZENS of walks -  inland, coastal, wooded,open, hilly, flatter. We match them to wind, weather and YOU.

4.You’ll benefit from our intimate knowledge of Catalonia – so different from the rest of Spain – from years of experience of LIVING here.

The QUIET Costa Brava near France 5. A ‘Costa Brava’ you never imagined ? Paisley Ramblers are discovering the PEACEFUL NORTHERN Costa Brava here on the right, near Llanca. (France on the horizon).

 

The Salvador Dali Museum, Figueres 6. ‘So much to see’ -  like Dali’s Art Museum in Figueres - 4th most visited in Spain. We give visitors information on Girona, Figueres, Barcelona, etc.. See this section on the Menu.

 

 7. So we don’t make GUIDED parties walk every day – you get time to explore and relax.

A North West party await their train in Girona   8. WE ARE ‘GREEN’ - based near coaches and trains.  WE DON’T MAKE YOU HIRE CARS – as other companies do.  Come ‘greenly’ by HIGH SPEED RAIL if you like.  Here is a party at Girona Station (only 300 metres from their hotel). 

 

9. PRIVATE parties – of FRIENDS.  We don’t push you in with with total strangers – as other operators do.
