Girona is a city with a great cultural heritage. With more than 2000 years old, already in Roman times it became an important point in the peninsula. Strategically located at the foot of the Pyrenees, it was occupied by many civilizations throughout history.

Protected by imposing walls, it managed to perfectly preserve its medieval urban section to this day, as well as the Jewish Quarter, considered one of the most important in Europe. Enjoy this 2-hour tour and soak up the lifestyle of the past and now.

We will walk by the Cathedral, one of the most important symbols of the city, and the Basilica of Sant Feliu. We will cross some of the most emblematic bridges, from where we will enjoy privileged views of the colorful houses of the Onyar river. And we will get lost in the labyrinth of streets of the Old Town, discovering unique spots, corners and streets.

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

*The Free Tour Girona doesn’t run on the 1st & 6th of January and 25th and 26th of December.

How long is the tour?

The Free Tour Girona lasts for approximately two hours, but it can be a little longer depending on the rhythm of the group.

Where does the tour end?

The Free Tour Girona is a circular tour. It finishes where it starts: in Plaça Independència.

Does the tour operate if it rains?

Yes! Raincoat, umbrella and off we go. Only in very extreme cases can the tour be canceled. If that happens, you will be notified via WhatsApp or email as far in advance as possible.

How do I find you?

Once at the meeting point you will see our guides, dressed with our turquoise blue or emerald green colors.

Is it suitable for people with reduced mobility or babies in a stroller?

Yes! For the most part of it, the Free Tour Girona runs through flat places. The climb up to the Cathedral area is slow and not very steep. There is only one place where it is essential to go up and down stairs, although you can take a longer way and avoid them.

We're a big group. Can we still join?

We always try not to leave anyone out but, sometimes with large groups, it is difficult to organize the tour and the guides. We always ask that, if you are a group of more than 6 people, you contact us by mail or WhatsApp and we will see how we can solve it.

Interested in a Private Tour?

If you want more flexibility and a dedicated guide for you and your group, you can book this tour as a private tour totally in English.

This way we can start at the day and time that suits you and have a much more personal experience. This is also a good option for groups of more than 6 people who cannot join our Free Tours together. Send us a WhatsApp or an email and we will answer you right away.
