For most, the rather excellent Salvador Dali Museum in Figueres will be enough to satisfy their cravings for quirky twentieth-century art. But the problem is that, if you're taking a day trip from Barcelona, there's little else to do in Figueres apart from enjoy the scenery and it's difficult to explore without your own transport. If you'd like to fill your day in Figueres, a guided tour that teaches you more about the man and the region may be ideal.
  • Guided Tour of Dalí's Figueres & Jewish Girona (from Barcelona)

    Combine a trip to Figueres, the birthplace of Spanish artist Salvador Dalí with a trip to Girona, which has one of the best preserved Jewish quarters in Europe.

    The Dalí museum in Figueres is a work of art in itself and has to be seen to be believed - the most surreal sight you will see on your trip to Catalonia - well, apart from the Dalí paintings inside the museum!

    After you've taken in Dalí's masterpieces, you'll visit Girona and its well preserved Jewish quarter. You will be free to explore Girona by yourself.
