A Fabulous Experience - Our tour guide was Carolina, and she was brilliant. She was very knowledgeable and interesting. Every place we stopped, she told us interesting snippets of information or a legend that added colour to the subject. We loved learning about Girona's history.

Great walking tour! - It was a rainy day, but our guide Carolina made the most and the best of it. Her knowledge of the town and its history showed us what were beyond the walls and churches in Girona, making the tour even better and more interesting. I wish i had spent a night in Girona.

Great tour and interesting facts - Ona was awesome! What better way to be shown around a town than by someone who was born and raised there? Best thing is she gets some of her fun facts from her Grandmother. Ona knows her cities historical background (has been doing tour 5 years) . We did tour on day 2 in Girona so we had already walked the town, but walked right past (or missed) everything she showed us and talked about, so it was really fun. We tried all 4 of her local food/drink recommendations and she was right! We had not found the best Xuixo until she told us where to go! Great tour, interesting and hit all the highlights-we did the wall walk in the morning on our own and then took her 3pm tour-finishing up just in time to get drinks (at her favorite place) and a cheese board before heading to dinner.

A local guide showing her city full of history and legends - A Tour Rich in History and Legends from a local guide! We recently moved to Girona and wanted to learn more about its history. Ona is very knowledgeable and an history passionate and shared very interesting information about the city during different historical times. The tour is done at a low pace, you have the time to rest if needed while you walk into many different parts of the old town! 3 hours went by so quickly. Ona also gave very good recommendations on places to visit and restaurants to go to and open to any question you might have. Thank you!
