Points forts
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.

5Great start to our Girona Stay.
Our original tour with another operator was cancelled due to travel disruption from rain, so we booked on this tour only 2.5hrs before its start time. We got immediate confirmation. Tour lasted about 2 hours and Quim was an excellent guide. He was funny and friendly and the time flew by with interesting facts and stories.

About Girona
Girona, in Catalonia, is a compact medieval city of stone lanes, a Jewish quarter and coloured houses on the Onyar River, inland from the Costa Brava.
Girona rises on a hill above the Onyar River, with tall coloured houses hanging over the water along the bank, a view photographed from the Eiffel Bridge, built by Gustave Eiffel's workshop. Above them, a stairway of ninety steps climbs to the cathedral, whose single Gothic nave is among the widest in the world. The old city walls can be walked for views over the rooftops.
Top-ranked sights in Girona: Girona Cathedral (Catedral de Girona), Girona Jewish Quarter (El Call de Girona), Onyar River (Riu Onyar) .
