Dalí's Surreal Spain: Art & Coast Adventure from Barcelona

I definitely recommend the Dali Museum and Dali house. Furthermore, I recommend you leave the logistics and driving to the tour guides! Sergi was our driver/tour guide; we absolutely couldn’t have experienced these sites without him.

If you are a fan of Dali, this tour is a must. Having the opportunity to pair his work with where he lived and painted was a special opportunity to complete the story of a genius.

Nuria or guide was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable about Dalí, providing his personal history on the drive to the sites. Also a very nice person.

Very nice day— we saw the museum & the house. It does take a full day of travel, though. Very dependent on traffic in & out of Barcelona. Nuria was a very good guide.

Fabulous tour. Be prepared for long comfortable van rides there and back,but our guide,Steven, was well prepared. We had a lively give and take on the drive talking about Dali and the different regions of Spain and their influences. First up was the best. It was the Dali museum at figueras. We had 2 hours there. I could have easily done three but so amazing and incredible creations in both painting sculpture and other art media that all were distinctively Salvador Dali. He started the ground floor. You can work your way below which takes you to the actual tomb of Dolly and as you work your way up, you'll go through several rooms that take you through all of his influences and there's a room or several rooms that take you chronologically through his life as well. The further up you go the more recent his works are. Absolutely stunning both inside and out. Highly rated. Then we had about a 30-minute drive through very whining mountain roads to get us out towards the easternmost point of Spain, the town of Cadaques. This was a town where Dolly spent much of his childhood and being off-season and a Tuesday. Not a lot of the restaurants were open but I found a great little bakery, had a slice of pizza and a fruit tart which was more than sufficient and delicious. We continued on mountain roads for about another 30 minutes to go to Dali's home that he built by buying up fisherman shacks right on the water and again the house expressed Dolly's tastes spectacular home, use their garden, their pool area. Then about a 2 and 1/2 hour drive home in traffic. We left around 4:00. Got home around 7:00. That's a huge Salvador Dali fan. I love the trip. It is a long day so be sure that you're well rested before you start because this trip starts early and ends late. Again five stars for me

Once in a life time experience. I post my photos in facebook and received many thanks from all over the world.

Sergi was informative but needs to slow down for those of us with walking limitations. I understand the time constraint though. The museum and house were both beautiful. I would recommend doing the tour of the house!

Everything was perfect. The road trip was pleasant, comfortable and safe and all the spots were wonderful. It’s worth the money and the amount of hours involved in this 11h tour. Nuria, our guide, is really well prepared to talk about Dali, his personal story and his work. Plus, she is really nice and kind. So don’t miss it if you are a Salvador Dali’s fan.

Really enjoyed this tour. A long way to go, but the museum was really incredible. And the the tour of Dali's house was really great, too! A step back in time. The area was beautiful, too! Our side, Sergio, clearly has a passion for Dali.

There's a lot to see in Barcelona, but it's worth getting out of town to seek out some of Catalunya's other well-known sites. Salvador Dali and the scenic seaside fishing town of Cadaques are two such gems not to be missed. Rod was our guide and a certified Dali expert, balancing a brief introduction to the museum in Figueres with ample time to explore the exhibits on our own. Cadaques for lunch was a stop too short and worth a longer stay some day. This experience was an economical and easy way to extend your visit beyond Barcelona's city limits.
