Think the length of the tour is about right. Very informative about the history of the city. Beautiful views! There are quite a few steps if you aren’t very mobile. The guide Carolina was very friendly, excellent english! We were a small group of 4 with 2 other English speaking people. Was relaxed and enjoyable

It is well worth doing the walking tour gives great insight into the history of Girona. It shows you places you might not discover yourself.
Jeanette_S, Apr 2026
I have been on many walking tours over the years but the tour of Girona with Carolina was by far the best I have ever done. She has an exceptional capacity to communicate not only the fascinating history of the city but also her passion and love of the place. Her knowledge was extensive and her manner was delightful. I will undoubtedly return to Girona and will definitely take another tour with Carolina. I highly recommend this tour.
Max_L, Mar 2026
Very interesting and engaging. We discovered so many things about Girona we never would have known about on our own. A great experience.
Kimberly_G, Mar 2026
Carolina was AMAZING!
She made our time in Girona truly unforgettable. She was kind, patient, and absolutely wonderful with our children—making the experience both fun and engaging for all of us. Her knowledge of the city brought Girona to life in such a special way, and you can feel how much she genuinely cares. We left with such a deep love for this beautiful place, all thanks to her. Highly recommend!

Ona was a wonderful guide. We really enjoyed learning some history and current events. It was a very manageable walking tour, and I think most people would be able to do it without any problem.

Leonardo_V, Dec 2025
Our travel guide, Pau, was very knowledgeable and personable. We enjoyed walking the beautiful streets of Girona while learning about its history. I would highly recommend the tour.
Claude_C, Nov 2025
Plenty of steps to climb. But well worth it with stupendous views over the town. Girona has an extremely interesting history which you will learn about on this tour
Victoria_R, Oct 2025
A good overview of the city of Girona with a walking tour that hits all the highlights with suggestions for more things to explore on your own later. Paula was charming and knowledgeable and I’d recommend this tour for any first time visitors to Girona.
Amarjeet_G, Oct 2025
Good. If you insist this next time I will not give you review. This is last time I am sending this message
Jia_L, Oct 2025
I would give a 10 star!
First, I must say if you are a bug fan of history, you must visit Girona. If you are a fan of Game of Thrones, more reason for you to see the place yourself.
Carolina is super knowledgeable and explained the history very interestingly. She answered of our questions. This is definitely the best tour we had in Spain. If you only have one day out of Barcelona, don’t do Costa Brava, try Girona.
Denyse_L, Oct 2025
Carolina was a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. We really appreciated this tour. The small group size made it feel like a private tour. We would not hesitate to recommend this tour.
Karim_Z, Oct 2025
Could have been done in half the time, not very enlightening, however, the tour guide is very nice . Personally I would do a tour without a group. Girona is very nice to visit.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Hi Karim,
Thanks to let us know your opinion. Our guides are locals and very knowleage about our History. May be you would enjoy more doing another kind of tour to entertain yourself with other subject, not History.
But we think is not possible to understand the city of Girona without understand its History and monuments.
Susan_L, Oct 2025
It was great to have a local Catalan guide to give us their perspective of the town and the history and local hints
sue_c, Oct 2025
kimuu (Quim) was an awesome guide. He knows so much history about Girona as well as the legends. He is personable, shared some details about his life, answered all questions and never seemed hurried or rushed! He is a native of Girona and spoke about changes in the city throughout his life. Listening to his stories, the time went so fast and we even forgot to notice all the step climbing !t was a very enjoyable time and I highly recommend Kimuu.!!!
Nick_F, Sep 2025
Great way to see the old town of Girona and hear about its history. Kimuu was a brilliant guide and was able to answer the many questions the group asked.
The tour is advertised as 3 hours but is only 2 hours long
Janeen_O, Sep 2025
Excellent tour. Even though I had been walking around Girona a few days before, Onah provided the context for everything. She was interesting and easy to understand. Definitely recommend.
Kevin_C, Sep 2025

1. Bring Water and small hand fans on hot days
2. Be prepared for a lot of stairs to climb and a lot of walking
3. Bring. Camera for great pics
4. Ask for (I think her name is ) Una. She was a great tour guide. Our thanks.
arthur_g, Aug 2025
Excellent tour! Pau met us in the town square of Girona. However, soon after we began our tour, the skies opened up. It was a cloudburst. Luckily, we had umbrella. However, poor Pau soldiered on with an incredible tour of Girona., It is a beautiful town with great history, beautiful architecture, and great food (Pau pointed a few great restaurants out to us as well).

Our tour was in depth with a very knowledgeable guide. It lasted two and a half hours. Not much space for questions but they were answered. Recommend.
