    Cozy hike and delicious food

    We arrived as the only two at the meeting point, the rest had cancelled due to a bad weather forecast. This simply allowed the guide to be more flexible with our needs, e.g. we hadn't had breakfast yet, so we went to get some. The weather turned out great, the hike was nice and cozy, good distance while not too tough, which was good as it was my wife's first hike. We arrived at a beautiful site with an old medieval structure, where the guide took us to a local restaurent that served us delicious food. The guide was very friendly, and told us about the local agriculture during the drive, and about the various plants along the hike. All in all a great experience.

    Response from the operator: Hi Mathias, I am really pleased you have enjoy our trip to Costa Brava. It was lovely to meet you both. All the best, Stepan

    Amazing tour and guide!

    Amazing tour. Stepan was a great guide. He was very knowledgeable and personable. We hiked along the coastline around St. Pal and then explored the medieval town of Tossa Del Mar. Lunch was included and was delicious. I would highly recommend this tour!

    Beautiful Hike and a Day We’ll Never Forget

    We did the hiking tour to Costa Brava and Tossa de Mar, and it was a wonderful experience. Stepan was super friendly, very easy to talk to. He picked us up right in the center of Barcelona and later dropped us off also there, although he was willing to drop us off in a location that were convenient for us, which we really appreciated. During the hike, he shared lots of interesting facts about the local nature and rock formations, and created a really enjoyable atmosphere throughout the day. He offered to take pictures of us (that was so sweet!). Landscapes are breathtaking. He also took us to a great restaurant, which was a nice touch. Funny enough, the tour happened on the day of the national blackout in Spain (April 28, 2025) — but instead of ruining anything, it actually made the day even more memorable. We ended up being part of a historic moment, and had a good laugh about it! I definitely recommend this tour if you want to see Costa Brava from a more natural and relaxed perspective. Thank you so much, Stepan! We hope to see you again for another great tour time when we are back to Barcelona.

    Costa Brava

    High winds were on course for the day, so Stepan chose an area that was protected from the winds. He molded the day to what we wanted to do. We did a lot of walking and he pointed out many local facts and fauna. Lunch was amazing and authentic and after another hiking tour with much history of the area. I would highly recommend this tour if you like to get exercise while learning about the area from someone who is knowledgeable.

    Response from the operator: Hi Jennifer, thank you so much for sharing your experience from Costa Brava. We would love to have you and your family back in the future. All the best, Stepan

    An absolutely perfect day.

    This was the most amazing day of our trip. Our guide Fivros was absolutely wonderful. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, wildlife, plants and the sea. He took the time to answer all of our questions, made sure we were safe and having a good time. We hiked for about 90 minutes then had a swim break at a beautiful beach with a bar. Another 90 minutes hike and we arrived at Tossa de Mar, a heavenly little town with lots of shops, restaurants and two beach areas to choose from. While we had an hour or so of free time Fivros hiked back to the van and picked us up in the town. This was a very well planned tour with the most amazing sea views.

    Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Barcelona.

    How much does Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar cost?

    +

    Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Barcelona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar take?

    +

    Plan for about 9.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Barcelona is not rushed.

    Is Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Barcelona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Barcelona can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Barcelona and add a light layer if any part of the 9.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Barcelona within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Barcelona?

    +

    Barcelona's Gaudí sites are capacity-limited and the official timed tickets go first, so most of the market is resellers with a guide attached. We weight those heavily on whether the guide is an architecture specialist. Beyond Gaudí, the tapas crawls in Gràcia and the Montserrat day trips carry the highest rankings in the city. On Outty we rank every Barcelona experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona, Gràcia Tapas and Vermouth Crawl, Girona & Dali Museum Small Group Tour with Pick-up from Barcelona. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Barcelona?

    +

    May, June, September and October. Sagrada Família light is best mid-morning. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Barcelona?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar?

    +

    Included: Accident and liability insurance for the activity; Certified and experienced mountain leader; Bottled water; Lunch; and Hiking poles (on request). Not included: Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar?

    +

    We will meet right in front of the big grey building with the Banco de España sign at the Pl. de Catalunya 17. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Czech, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Discovering Costa Brava Coastline Tour in Tossa de Mar if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
