Our tour guide Julio was fantastic, helpful and very knowledgeable. The scenery was beautiful. The visit of the 2 medieval towns and the beach on Costa Brava was very much appreciated. The bike ride was easy and the bikes in good condition. I really recommend this tour and if you are as lucky as we were, you’ll have Julio as guide. Merci Julio

Itinerary
We will leave the city by driving through the eixample
This area of Catalonia is rich in water in the subsoil which makes it perfect for a variety of crops. We will cover a distance of about 25km which will take us to discover some of the best-preserved medieval villages in all of Spain. The peace and silence we will enjoy will make you forget about the hustle and bustle of Barcelona. We will make several stops along the way so you can explore the villages.
Calella de Palafrugell is the heart of the Costa Brava. An ancient fishing village protected by several coves a summer holiday destination for Catalans and not only. Here we will leave you about 2 hours of free time to have lunch and enjoy a swim in the crystal clear waters of the Costa Brava.
Back to Barcelona at the same meeting point

The countryside was beautiful! The towns were old and fantastic to look at. Guilio was a great guide that has a lot of information about the area and towns. The bikes could be updated but the ride was fun!
Riding through amazing sites, quiet Countryside, through to Medieval villages. Meeting some wonderful people. Tour guide friendly and knowledgeable
What an experience… beautiful Countryside in the quiet and fresh air and being on e- bikes allows you to see so much more. Giulio was a fabulous and knowledgeable guide. Lovely to chat to. Medieval villages are a must to visit Also met lovely people on the tour . I would certainly recommend
On May 16th, 2024, we enjoyed an excellent tour with Giulio, (A.K.A Bob) originating in Barcelona and traveling to Girona, Peratallada and then Costa Brava. Our group consisted of seven tourist and 1 Guide which provide for an excellent opportunity for interaction with Giulio Giulio requested we meet about 20 minutes earlier in Barcelona then originally scheduled due to the flower festival in Girona. This slight change allowed us to miss most of the crowds in Girona. As the crowds were arriving, we were moving on to Peratallada. Giulio discussion of the city was wonderful, and he was able to show a location in which a scene from Game of Thrones was shot, he even provided a video of the scene from season six with Arya falling down the stairs while we were in front of the same stairs. Awesome for the GOT fans. On to Peratallada, this was a medieval village of about 20 people, and it seemed that they all knew Giulio as a personal friend. He was able to point out interesting facts and provided detailed insights to life in this village. The Coast Brava town by the sea was a place to consider revisiting, we had time for lunch and to enjoy the seaside Then back to Barcelona after a fantastic excursion. As side note, Giulio provided exceptional recommendation for local restaurants and gelato. Should we travel back to Barcelona, we will look for other tours operated by Be Outdoors Barcelona. Booking with Giulio again, maybe the Barcelona Vespa or Costa Brava E-Bike tour Paul and Beth
Exploring Barcelona's countryside on two wheels is a LOT of fun! Everything about the trip: the sun, the terrific bike guide, the photos, the food; all first class. Giulio is the most passionate tour guide you'll ever meet and the chance to rattle around on two wheels will also make you feel a little more independent and free. This is my third tour with Giulio, and it won't be my last!
Easy itinerary, very enjoyable bike ride thought the Catalan countryside, Giulio is a great guide, friendly and very passionate about his job. Highly recommend.
The most amazing tour when you need a break from the city! Nature, sightseeing, good food, relax, sun and good vibes, what else would you need? Thank you so much Giulio, I enjoyed it a lot!
We’ve booked the tour for 2 people and it was amazing! A well needed break from the city! Giulio has been very kind and I really suggest booking a tour with them! 100% recommended!
We’ve done this tour together with some friends and i have to say most beautiful adventure i’ve ever lived in the Barcelona countryside!!
Giulio was an amazing guide and host! I loved his energy and passion for life. He was attentive, fun, and kind. The tour itself was AMAZING! I highly recommend it if you enjoy the outdoors and want to get a taste of what it’s like right outside Barcelona. I had a blast riding the e-bikes, wind blowing my hair, and basking in the beautiful scenery. Thank you for the awesome experience!
Julio was awesome! He took us out of the outskirts of Barcelona and to the countryside of Spain. We went through more than 3 towns which were full of history and stories, (which he knew everything about) then finished the day at Costa Brava! Feels like he showed us everything worth seeing. And not to mention, the car rides went by quickly as we exchanged music!
This was the highlight of our trip- experiencing the beautiful countryside, stopping in these little Medieval villages along the small path, and just having the chance to really do something as a family. View of the Mediterranean from the fishing village is also something we will never forget. Just amazing. Activity level was easy enough for all ages, even my husband who has respiratory issues found it enjoyable. Thank you for offering this tour. We really loved it!
Great tour! Our guide was so nice and taught us all about the villages on our tour. Bikes were easy to use, fast, and fun. Great views, and wonderfully scenic trails. By the end of the tour our guide felt more like a close friend than a guide. Would recommend, 10/10
The organization was perfect! We didn't need to prepare anything in advance, everything worked like a clock. The guys explained us on the area and the local culture! Definitely travel with them again!
Trip was Amazing with full of beauty of nature and too great of experience with knowledge shared by our tour guide Daniel
This was a great trip for my teenage son and me. Giulio was knowledgeable, kind, and fun. He has contacts in the charming hill towns you e-bike through. The countryside is also beautiful.
A beautiful day in nature exploring the province of Girona with its medieval villages by ebike, ending with a dream barbecue!
Wonderful tour in the Catalan nature with a fantastic guide; We will definitely repeat in the future with friends and family!
