Overview

Discover the ancient Roman and Medieval history of Girona on a guided tour of the city's highlights! Visit the Jewish Quarter, pass by the cathedral and meander the streets of the Old Town.

Learn about the Cathedral from your local expert guide — one of the most important symbols of the city, together with the Basilica of Sant Feliu.

Cross some of the most emblematic bridges, enjoying unique views of the colourful houses of the Onyar river. And get lost in the labyrinth of streets of the Old Town, discovering unique spots, corners, squares and streets while hearing some of the strangest legends and stories.

Try, right in the heart of the Jewish Quarter, our two most famous delicacies: the xuixo, a pastry made of baked dough filled with custard, and ratafia, our most famous liquor made of 40 different herbs and green nut. So good!

All of this, and a lot more, in this fantastic trip to the past, present and future of our city. Don’t miss it!

Very informative. Our guide was an energetic presenter who made it interesting. We took up his advice and found the Roman walls And walked on them after the tour. A lot packed into two hours and this was perfect.

Excellent guide, highly recommend Jon Mark. Very informative, and passionate about his home town. The small stop at the halfway mark to eat a local pastry and taste a local drink was also excellent.

John mark was excellent, he told us all about different buildings and the stories that go along with them. We felt that he brought history to life. He has lots of knowledge and a great personality. We stopped for pastry and a drink that was a pleasant surprise for me. Thank you for a wonderful morning/ afternoon on our first day in Girona.
