Day trip to charming Girona
Day trip to charming Girona

What you'll do

Just a 38-minute train ride outside of Barcelona is the charming, historic city of Girona. Although small (you could explore it in a day, hooray!) don't underestimate just how much of a punch this charming little place can pack.

Join one of our local Barcelona hosts on a personalized experience of the city, discovering its rich tapestry of cultures, ancient fortifications, and delicious Catalan cuisine.

It'll feel like you stepped back 2000 years in time as you wander old paved stone streets and up winding staircases, discovering the old Jewish Quarter, marveling at ancient and Gothic churches, or visiting the Girona History Museum.

Stroll along the River Onyar with your host, see the city’s iconic colorful houses and discover the ancient Roman and Moorish architecture which is still standing today. Or perhaps you would like to take a (well-deserved) timeout at the Arabic baths? From Old Town to newer quarters, Girona is full of treasures waiting to be discovered.
