Had a great tour with Mike. He was personable and extremely knowledgeable. Our three hour tour went by quickly and was packed with history, stories and some fun. Fortunately everyone in our group was fairly fit so we could all go the same pace. Lots of stairs and moderate climbing on this walk. Take your camera and some water.

Our tour guide was Mike, and he was a wealth of knowledge, and so much fun. Half way through the tour we stopped for lunch. Mike’s suggestions for restaurants was excellent. Regarding the tour itself, learning about the 1,000 year history and extensive contributions of the Jewish people in Girona and Besalu was eye-opening. It was disturbing to learn of the persecution and ghettoization of the Jewish people through the centuries, in spite of the fact that they were financial advisors and physicians to the elite of Spanish society. Particularly moving was the beauty of these two Medieval cities. Walking the narrow, winding streets was like being in a Time Machine. Our guide filled us in on the religious history of the cities, both Christian and Jewish. We saw where the synagogues used to be, and at the end of the tour, we visited the Jewish History museum of Girona. Fascinating! Our guide’s breadth of information was breathtaking. Suggestions: Bring good walking shoes!

Peter was our tour guide and Alex our driver, we were lucky enough to have the tour to ourselves, Peter was so informative and knowledgeable and we learnt so much during the course of the day. All delivered with interest and good humour. We couldn’t recommend more highly. Alex was also a superb driver throughout the day. Book now!

Our guide, Ona, was terrific. The tour included much of the Old City in addition to the Jewish Quarter. I had wondered, in advance, why we would want a tour guide to take us through the Jewish Museum when we could read the explanations accompanying the exhibits on our own. I was wrong. Ona’s extensive knowledge of Jewish history and the stories behind the exhibits made the experience far more interesting and informative than it would have been without her. Similarly, her stories about the Jewish Quarter brought it to life in a way we couldn’t have experienced on our own.

A great experience visiting the small picturesque medieval towns - Besalu, Santa Pau, Castellfollit De La Roca - hiking up a volcano and having a 4 course lunch, and to finish off, a short stroll along the Banyoles lake. The towns were what I was most looking forward to and they surely did not disappoint! What a stunning part of the country steeped in so much history! Our guide Pete did not stutter in telling us all about the history here, he was perfect, charismatic, funny, and very passionate about the historical and present day Catalonia! If ever we are back in Girona this company will be first choice for exploring! Save the Castle! Thanks for a great day Pete! Ailsa & Christian

A thoroughly enjoyable tour! Pete our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and great company. We learned so much about Dalí and his works but also the region and its economy. Carme was also lovely patiently driving us around. The tour was professional and efficiently organized.

Miguel gave our family including 2 teens and an 11 year old) a private tour of the Jewish history in Girona. Miguel was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging-and extremely passionate about the topic. We are pretty well informed about Jewish history and we learned a ton. Even our children were engaged. Thank you Miguel for an amazing tour!

We had an exceptional experience on this tour, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Mike, our guide, possesses an impressive depth of knowledge about the Jewish history of Girona. His passion and expertise truly brought the rich history of the area to life. My son and I were captivated by the stories and insights he shared, which made the history accessible and engaging for both of us. Mike’s ability to weave historical facts with compelling narratives made the tour not only educational but also genuinely enjoyable. We walked away with a much deeper understanding and appreciation of Girona’s Jewish heritage, and the experience was a highlight of our visit. If you’re looking to delve into the Jewish history of this beautiful city, Mike is the perfect guide to take you on that journey.

The tour was fantastic and fun! Our guide Miguel was very good and knowledgeable. He provided a lot of great information about the history of Girona and showed some very interesting spots.

We had an awesome experience with our guide Ona It was a small group..Ona was fun & informative with great recommendations Highly recommended

We were met by our guide Pere and driver Alex at our hotel and taken on an extraordinary journey through the Catalan countryside to Port Lligat, the home of Salvador Dali and his wife, Gala. Then we drove to nearby Cadaqués, a picturesque fishing village. Dali’s home is a must if you want an insight into this extraordinary but flawed man. We then drove to Figueres for lunch and a visit to the Dali museum which is a tour de force of the beautiful and outrageous creations of Dali and should not be missed by any art enthusiast. Pere guided us with such tremendous enthusiasm and amazing knowledge and was able to point out fascinating details of Dali’s art work that without his input, would have passed us by. We learnt a great deal about Dali, the man, his art and his importance to the Surrealist movement. Highly recommend this tour and if you’re lucky, Pere will be your guide.

Pere, our guide, took us on a magical journey through the twisting alleyways and cobbled streets of Girona’s Jewish Quarter - giving us a unique and fascinating insight into the community’s history and culture. Pere’s amazing enthusiasm and knowledge managed to ‘transport’ us back to the 14th, 15th centuries and beyond. Would highly recommend this tour - you’ll come away far more enlightened about this important era of Catalonia’s history.

Our tour guide Carmen was amazing! She knows a lot about the history of these villages. We were supposed to go to two more places but we didn’t make it to them. We did eat lunch at a local restaurant that was good as well.

Eduardo was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and passionate about the city and it's history. The best way to see Girona!

Eduardo did a wonderful job and we had a great time in Girona! The half day tour was just long enough to see a lot, without feeling too long. Plus time for lunch after. Eduardo was very sweet with our 3 year old, and was great at finding shady spots to keep us comfortable. We loved it!
