Let’s travel to Spain together in March 2025! From March 17-25, 2025, our group of 16 travelers will indulge in luxury during a most memorable experience exploring hidden and not-so-hidden gems in Barcelona, the Priorat region, and Costa Brava. Having traveled several times to this iconic country, it was an easy decision to help plan this decadent trip featuring stunning hotels (breathtaking views and relaxing spas, anyone?) and premium experiences highlighting regional art, music, architecture, history, food and of course, wine.

Our trip begins in Barcelona, the cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s Catalonia region. We will stay at the beautiful and timeless 5-star Hotel El Palace Barcelona and have 1 full and 1 half day to explore this vibrant city full of art and beautiful architecture. City highlights include a private guided tour of Barcelona with an exclusive visit to the Sagrada Familia Basilica. (This is so stunning, we can’t go enough times in our lifetime-I can’t wait to return!) We’ll take a walk in the old quarter with a local guide, visit the bustling Boqueria Food Market, have a private paella lunch and cooking class with wine, and indulge in specialty shopping with local artisans in the Gracia district. We’ll have stops in Penedes (Cava, anyone?) and Montserrat.
From there, we move on to Spain’s wine country and check into the Mas d’en Bruno, a luxury boutique hotel on a historic estate in the heart of Priorat. In this dream hotel, guests will enjoy a wonderful experience in a unique destination renowned for producing some of the world’s best wines, most notably Garnacha, or Grenache as it’s known elsewhere. Visits to multiple wineries with incredible views and exceptional offerings are also included.
After leaving Priorat, we’ll head to northern Catalonia and visit Costa Brava. Our hotel is the Parador de Aiguablava, perched on the bluffs overlooking the sea. Here, we’ll visit an olive estate, see medieval cities, visit the Dali Museum, Dali’s home and so much more. The trip will finish with a private country home visit with a cooking class before returning to Barcelona for our departure home.
Space is limited to 14 guests so that we can have a private, exclusive experience. For more information, click HERE.
