At Vol De Coloms they offer a wide variety of tours, so it will be a great option for you whether you want to take a romantic getaway or have a memorable experience with your children. Additionally, they offer tours that include a carriage ride through the forest after the flight.
We recommend that you consider our beautiful apartment in Roses. From there it takes approximately an hour by car to reach Vol De Coloms.
Empordà wine region
If you are a wine lover, you will like to know that wine tourism on the Costa Brava is a very popular activity among adults. Empordà wines are surrounded by tradition and history. According to ancient accounts, the wines of this region were recognized and admired throughout the Roman Empire. Numerous unique experiences, such as staged excursions to wineries and vineyards, seaside tastings or the opportunity to learn first-hand about the harvest and traditional wine-making processes, are possible on the Empordà wine routes. Not to mention the wine centers and museums, which are full of creative ways to get closer to wine culture.
Michelin star restaurants
For a special dinner, there are a few Michelin-starred restaurants on the Costa Brava to please any exquisite gastronomic taste. Chef Paco Pérez's Miramar restaurant is located on the Llançà seafront, in front of the town's main beach, so you can enjoy sea views while trying authentic Mediterranean dishes. The Empòrium restaurant is located near the town of Empuriabrava and is in the hands of a generation of chefs. The Michelin-starred Els Brancs restaurant is located in Roses and offers a selection of dishes cooked with fresh local produce.
Private tour to the Salvador Dalí Museum
If you consider yourself a true art lover, you may want to consider booking a private tour of the Salvador Dalí Museum. This museum is one of the most popular and visited places of interest in Catalonia, so having a private guide could be a good option to fully emerge in the creative atmosphere of the place.
Magma Spa
For a relaxing day you can visit the Magma thermal spa, where they offer a selection of thermal pools, spa treatments and have a children's area for those who come with the whole family. At the Magma Spa, medicinal and mineral thermal waters arise at 42ºC with the most modern disinfection and purification systems, making it a perfect place to visit when the weather outside is not so sunny.
To fully enjoy your relaxation experience, we recommend that you consider one of our splendid villas as your holiday home in Empuriabrava that has everything prepared for your comfort.
