Looking at booking the 3 day trip soon with Catalan Sports Tours.

Can anyone give a review on these tours and spending money needed and rough prices of grub and drink etc.

Thanks in advance.

Catalans Sports Tours are of course fantastic people, whose advertising helps keep this place running – and for the Cas mob, numbers of whom like to stay in Lloret del Mar over the border for some reason, organised coaches to and from the game from Spain.

But I'd recommend staying in Perpignan itself or, if you want, one of the nearby coastal resorts like Argeles sur Mer or Collioure (frequent local train service to Perps)

All sounds great other than the £6.50 a pint in Perpignan.

Anyone find any cheap places?

youll probably end up in the irish bar! get yourself to one of the super markets and stock up!

What are prices like in the Irish bar?

At the moment I'm thinking of a week in northern Spain or 3 days in Perpignan.

As expensive as everywhere else, the exchange rate will make it a very expensive trip this year, especially if you're a heavy drinker, they're taking us for a ride now over there

I do like a drop yes.

I think them prices may change me into a reformed character for that weekend though.

Will it be cheaper to have a weekend on the vino rather than lager?

I was thinking of that earlier.

I think it's due to the fact the frogs don't drink as much as us.

By us you mean Brits

got a place over there, came back last thurs, very expensive for food and drink. better stopping in spain and getting coach to the match. 4 euros for a coffee in perps 2 for 5 euros in gerona.wine bit cheaper than beer or coke.

Of course, you English can get drunk and make idiots of yourselves along with the best of us Welsh.

id use catalan sports tours if i were to stay in perpignan,they seem to be reliable and get you to the game and town safely on time.

it was my first visit to perpignan at the weekend although i was based in lloret with my lad,i dont think i could afford to stay in perpignan been on a budget,the first bar we went to cost me 9.50 euros for a lager and a half a coke and the food was no cheaper.

it all depends what you want to go for if its the local culture then perpignan is ok but if its for a boozy weekend then re-mortgage the house before you go.

Where the Barcelona plans for wire fans

Right I think I've been swayed towards Spain.

Is there any other option that anybody has used to get across to Perpignan for the game other than renting your own car or using Catalan Sports Tour transfers?

Why the f*ck would you want to go in an Irish Bar when abroad? It baffles me. Try something a bit different, embrace another culture.

Nah swerve that GT, we should all be being 'british abroad mate, you know being shirtless, and displaying our union jack/bulldog tatoos. Oh and not to mention ing in fountains and walking around singing rule britannia.

Where the feck were you drinking coffee? I never paid more than €2.90 for a "café, verre d'eau"

On wine, you can usually get a carafe ("un demi" half a litre) of house red for €4 and change

Sounds like not being able to go to Toulouse will be a good decision then

that was the price for a pint of fosters in the irish bar, the reason we walked straight back out

fly to Girona, stay there and then catch the train up to perpignan.

Spain - but Lloret's a s[size=9.[/sizehithole.

we stayed in lloret last weeked, transfers with cst to perpignan, everything went smoothly. i agree perpignan is very expensive, we were paying on average £5 a pint, despite the prices we had a fantastic weekend, the result helped of course. i dont think there is anything wrong with lloret, certainly cheaper than perpignan, our hotel was £70 for three nights, all inclusive.

not going this time, however last time i was there i was in an irish bar, 5 euros a pint, had to argue to get the bloke behind the bar to put superleague on.

And fell out an open window onto the street.



damn sliding window frames.
