About this trip

I hope you will join us on this (rescheduled from 2020) Women, Walking & Wine small group adventure. The Catalonia region of Spain offers a truly immersive, out of the ordinary adventure that showcases the region's natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and culinary excellence.  


We will begin our adventure in Barcelona at La Mercè "an annual festival of street arts" 

Then we continue with a combination of hiking, wine, and food to create an unforgettable experience.  We will be trekking from village to village on guided hikes on local trails, sipping Priorat wines (primarily reds made from Garnacha and Cariñena grapes), enjoy an olive oil tasting, a historical train ride, picnic lunches and other delicious meals that fuse Mediterranean and Spanish flavors, incorporating fresh seafood, locally sourced meats, and seasonal produce.  


Space is Limited to 12  - Sign up soon!  Don't delay, NOW is Someday!!

My husband and I spent two weeks Vienna and stayed at the Hotel Kaiserhof. We loved this hotel and highly recommend it. Our room was spacious (a superior king room), comfortable, quiet, clean. Kaiserhof provided lots of amenities—complimentary drinks, a clothesline in the shower (helpful for our longer stay), umbrella, and more. We could even request extra pillows to fit our sleeping habits! We loved that it was “green” and that it provided glass bottles in the room to fill with the great Vienna tap water: no plastic water bottles needed on this trip. Breakfast was amazing—suiting all sorts of preferences—and we could order Viennese specialty coffees every morning. The staff was extremely professional and helpful. We loved the location, just a couple of streets outside the Innere Stadt (the busy tourist center). That meant that the hotel was very quiet (situated on a side street) but still very central. We could walk almost everywhere, including to our evening music events. For longer trips, a main subway station (Karlsplatz) was just 5 minutes away. And lots of restaurant options nearby. Should we ever return to Vienna, we would definitely stay again at the Kaiserhof. Nancy Dorrans of Adventure Marketplace handled arrangements for our trip—hotel, airline tickets, airport transfer. As always, Nancy identified the best air travel option, with a direct flight from Boston to Vienna, and figured out what we would need to add to our fare. She made the hotel reservations and recommended booking the hotel for the night before we arrived so we could check in in the early morning. We would not have thought to do this and Nancy’s suggestion made our first day much more relaxing and pleasant. Nancy made payment for the hotel easy and also organized our airport transfer. We loved working with Nancy, who is an excellent, experienced travel agent and consultant. And we look forward to working with her on our next adventure.

I had a great time, the accommodations were wonderful, guides were flexible knowledgeable and friendly. My only recommendation would be to provide more explanations/information in the original itinerary, I thought we would hike maybe three days and would have more other activities the other days, the train ride was great.

Thank you Cindy O for joining me and for your review of our adventure in Catalonia. Yours is the one and only review that was received. I truly appreciate your recommendations and in the future, I will work to include more details of the itinerary before hand and send it out several times so that everyone understands the activity level of the adventure before they decide if this is the right trip for them. PS - Where else would you like to go?

We had a wonderful time. The Daffodil Parade was great. We visited a lot of different places, and were kept busy. Accommodations were were very good. The bus was clean and comfortable, and the bus driver a hoot! Nancy was very friendly and knowledgeable. Definetely would go on another trip with her.

We thought we'd try a bus trip to see if we liked it. The trip was sold out. The bus was comfortable and the driver was amazing especially navigating side streets on the journey. Nancy did a great job setting up the trip. The hotel was in a state of construction but the rooms were very nice. It was nice to visit Nantucket again. It was crowded because of the festival but we enjoyed the island. In the future we may take another bus trip.
