The ancient walled city of Girona stands on a fortress-like hill, high above the confluence of the Onyar and Ter rivers. As the provincial capital it has a long and distinguished history. Founded by Iberians, the Romans later named it Gerunda and established it as an important stopping point on the Via Augusta, linking Iberia with Rome. The huge 15th century cathedral, boasting the widest unsupported gothic arch in the world, dominates the skyline, yet much of the city's attraction lies in exploring the mediaeval streets, especially around the charming Jewish quarter.

You will be able to cross the Onyar River through the bridge built by Gustave Eiffel " Pont de les Peixeteries Velles" one of the most populat monuments of the city.

This extensive visit (about 3 hours) will show you the most important monuments of Girona, its history, its Jewish heritage and also its Legends.

Our guides are local guides who know all the secrets of the city.

    Excellent tour! Pau met us in the town square of Girona. However, soon after we began our tour, the skies opened up. It was a cloudburst. Luckily, we had umbrella. However, poor Pau soldiered on with an incredible tour of Girona., It is a beautiful town with great history, beautiful architecture, and great food (Pau pointed a few great restaurants out to us as well).

  • Guided walk tour is best
