‘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.’
Gwen Goddard, Ramblers’ Association Area Secretary (since retired), Yorkshire West Riding. 2003.
1. Since 2001, we have given over 500 walkers ‘THE CATALAN EXPERIENCE HOLIDAY’ – with TWO alternative offers – GUIDED parties in a Girona Hotel, or SELF-GUIDED, SELF-CATERING in a coastal flat – see below.
The SELF CATERING coastal flat at Llanca is available from 15 September, for bookings of a fortnight or more, for just 1 or 2 people.
* 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.
* SELF-GUIDED, SELF-CATERING - for 1 or 2 people in our modern Llanca coastal flat near France. From only 560 euros per fortnight (flat price). See ‘SELF GUIDED’ holidays on Menu.
2. We lead the R.A.’s ’Rail Rambles’ until emigrating in 2001. We’ve operated 10 months each year, and learnt CATALAN (11th European language). 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 9 years experience of LIVING here.
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).
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.
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.
10. Fly here in 2 hours – LOW COST – from a LOCAL airport. OR – at 200 mph BY TRAIN from London ! See ‘Getting Here’ on the Menu.
11. Discover CATALAN art, music, cuisine, architecture, language, culture, etc.. NOT just ‘another walking holiday’ – but ‘THE CATALAN EXPERIENCE’.
