## Itinéraire du groupe

##

Fly into Nice and you will be met for the transfer to your hotel, so the first thing you have to do is relax. In the evening your Soca Islands Host brings everyone together for a welcome dinner of regional dishes and local wine, the first chance to get to know the group.

##

Your morning starts in the maze of Vieux Nice, where market stalls, pastel buildings and sea glimpses at the end of every lane give you a sense of the city's long history.

Next comes a hands-on food session: taste local specialties, pour a glass of wine and share lunch around the table. By late afternoon you are free to walk the Promenade des Anglais, look around the boutiques or find a spot to watch the light fade over the water.

##

Today you leave the city for Èze, a medieval village perched high on a rocky hilltop. Its cobbled lanes wind up to views that stretch far along the coast.

Monaco follows. Spend your time as you like: peek into the Monte Carlo Casino, sit by the yacht-filled harbor or head to the beach. It is a small place with a big personality.

##

You leave France behind for Barcelona. Check in, then join a local chef for a paella class, glass of cava in hand, and learn how the rice, stock and timing come together. Dinner is the paella you have just made, shared with the group.

##

The best way to understand Barcelona is to walk it. Today covers the Gothic Quarter, the big squares and neighborhoods lined with tapas bars, plus a stop at the Sagrada Família, Gaudí's basilica that has been under construction since the 1880s.

The afternoon is open: browse a market, head to the beach or go looking for a flamenco bar.

##

A catamaran takes you out onto the Mediterranean this morning, with the city skyline spread out behind you and time to enjoy the sun and breeze. Afterward, the day is free.

Tonight the group eats tapas at a spot favored by locals: patatas bravas, pan con tomate, garlic prawns. After dinner, carry on at a vermouth bar or a live-music venue if the mood takes you.

##

A short drive out of Barcelona brings you to Penedès, one of Spain's best-known wine regions. At a family-owned winery you learn how they farm sustainably, then sample their wines over an unhurried lunch.

Back in the city, the group gathers for a final dinner of Catalan favorites such as jamón ibérico and croquetas, with sangria to toast the week.

##

After breakfast the trip wraps up. Barcelona's airport and rail links make it easy to head home or carry on traveling in Europe.

## FAQ du voyage

##

Fly into Nice (NCE), Fly out of Barcelona (BCN).

##

Yes. If you arrive on Day 1 of your adventure or book pre-tour accommodation with us, your airport arrival transfer is included. If you choose alternative pre-tour accommodation or arrive by another mode of transport, you’ll need to arrange your own arrival transfer.

Our arrival transfers are private to Soca Islands and are organised in groups based on flight times. Sometimes this means a short wait at the airport until other flights arrive.

##

There are no scheduled activities on the final day, so feel free to book your departure at your own convenience.

##

We recommend arriving before 3 pm on Day 1 to make it in time for the welcome event. But don’t worry no matter when you land, we’ll have an airport transfer ready for you.

  

##

Please Refer to your government’s travel advice or consult your local consulate. Remember, passport and visa requirements can change, so make sure to stay updated.

  

##

Excluding alcohol, we suggest budgeting around USD $40.00 per day for extras.

##

While we’re not medical professionals, we want to help you prepare for a safe and healthy adventure. Here are some tips:

1. **Consult with a healthcare professional:** Schedule an appointment with your travel nurse or doctor at least eight weeks before your adventure to get any necessary vaccines or medications.
2. **Up-to-date medical advice:**
   - **US residents:** Check the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website.
   - **UK residents:** Visit the NHS Fit For Travel website.
   - **Australian residents:** Refer to the Smart Traveler Health website.

3\. **Government travel advice:**

- **US residents:** Consult the US Department of State Travel Advice.
- **UK residents:** Check the FCDO Travel Advice.
- **Australian residents:** Visit the Smart Traveler website.

4\. **Medication tips:** If you take prescription medication, bring enough to last the entire trip, plus a few extra days in case of delays. Carry a copy of your prescription in case you need to visit a clinic abroad.

We hope this helps you prepare for a safe and enjoyable adventure.

##

Please keep in mind that our itinerary, activities, and hotels might change. These adjustments could happen with little notice due to factors like availability, weather conditions, seasonal shifts, or other circumstances beyond our control. Rest assured, we always aim to minimise any impact on your experience. Occasionally, we may tweak the itinerary to try out fresh ideas and keep the adventure exciting.

  

##

We believe solo travelers shouldn’t have to pay extra to explore the world. That’s why our group trips are designed around shared accommodation and do not include a single supplement. Solo travelers joining our group trips are paired in twin or multi-share rooms with another traveler of the same sex for the duration of the trip.

Some of our Independent trips are structured differently. For these itineraries, solo travelers will need to book at the single occupancy rate.

##

Tips are not included in the cost of this tour. Remember, tipping is entirely at your discretion and based on what you feel comfortable with.
