You now head inland to Girona, a resolutely Catalan city that is ideal for strolling in its gorgeous and compact medieval centre.

The balance of the day is yours to stroll the medieval walls, walk along the hanging houses by the river and visit the cathedral or the Jewish History Museum. As another hub of Catalan culture, you will notice the striped red and yellow flags of the region adorning many façades.

Your boutique hotel is in the very heart of the city, on a peaceful street, with a small swimming pool in which to refresh yourself. A perfect base for exploration.

Dinner tonight is at leisure in town. Choose from one of the many lively restaurants in the old town or treat yourself to a meal at Can Roca, often cited as the best restaurant in the world, if you can get a table!
