culTOURa specializes in private tours, day trips and overnight excursions based on the culture, history, gastronomy and traditions of Catalonia, as well as Spain. All our trips have one thing in common: you experience local life as a local person, not a tourist. This means going where local people go, doing what they do and eating what they eat.

The culTOURa team is made up of energetic, imaginative and bright spirited people. We define ourselves as professional, creative and friendly. culTOURa is part of Moyano Agencia de Viajes (Moyano Travel Agency), GC561 with CIF B-60545795. C/ Periodista Grane, 149, Terassa, Barcelona, 08226.

CATALAN FESTIVALS

we specialize in personalized and private tours to Catalan festivals, to discover the sometimes strange, but always stunning, traditions of the Catalan people. Every year, local festivals transform the towns of Catalonia into fantastical and folkloric worlds of giants, dragons, devils and human castles. For just one day we want you to experience life as a local person, and form part of a magical and unique cultural history.

Our private festival tours aim to represent the wide range of cultural traditions that take place throughout Catalonia. From carrying burning logs down the Pyrenees Mountains for scaring away evil spirits to dancing round a pine tree festooned with animal horns to welcome Spring; from treading grapes for making wine to blessing animals for ensuring a good Harvest – we want you to experience these real life rituals as a local Catalan person does.

As food is such an important part of Mediterranean culture, we recommend that you try a traditional meal in a Catalan restaurant. When you are given a piece of toast with a garlic clove, ripe tomato and jug of olive oil what should you do? When wine is brought to you in a glass container with a long spout how do you drink? When you come on a festival day trip, you will be able to speak with local people about their experiences. What do these traditions mean? Why is the same festival celebrated year after year? Why are these traditions Catalan but not Castilian, Basque or Andalusia?
