You will see the sea from many different places! We will leave Barcelona by van for only 7 participants at 6: 15h to arrive in Tossa de Mar at 7:30h. The first stop will be at a spectacular viewpoint and then we will walk along a coastal path with spectacular views of the Costa Brava to finish visiting the old part of Tossa de Mar, with medieval walls.
