Girona and Figueres Full-Day Tour with Hotel Pick Up

1. Girona and Figueres Full-Day Tour with Hotel Pick Up

Escape the hustle and bustle of Barcelona for the day on a full-day trip to Girona and Figueres, two of the most scenic towns of the Costa Brava. First, visit the historic town of Girona to see Roman remains and medieval buildings. Lose yourself in a labyrinth of narrow streets, and travel through the best-preserved Jewish Quarter in Europe. Marvel at Girona Cathedral and the widest Gothic nave in the world. Then, see the colorful houses along the River Onyar. Go to the top of Girona’s medieval walls for panoramic views. Next, transfer to Figueres near the border with France, and experience one of the main destinations of the so-called “Dalí Triangle.” Explore the birthplace of Salvador Dalí, and enter some of the places he frequented as an adult. Go to the Dalí Museum, designed by Dalí himself on the ruins of an old municipal theater. Journey into the artist's mind as you explore the vast collection of his work, including some of the strangest artifacts imaginable.

2. Girona: Museum of Cinema Entry Ticket

The Tomàs Mallol Cinema-Collection Museum is a permanent, non-profit institution, open to the public as a space for scientific, cultural and recreational participation of citizens, and at the service of society and its development. Its origin is found in the acquisition of the Tomás Mallol Collection of cinematographic and pre cinematographic objects by the City of Girona on January 28, 1994; and is located in the former headquarters of the city's water company, a building from the late nineteenth century known as "House of Waters." It aims to become a center of revitalization of the world of cinema and visual shows, thanks to a continuous programming of activities and services that allow interaction with the visitor, aimed at a very wide audience, local, national and international. Its mission is to promote the understanding and knowledge of the history of the moving image and of the cinema through the conservation, investigation, interpretation and exhibition of various collections, whose objects explain how the images were represented before the cinema and what was the technical process that led to the invention of the cinematograph in 1895.

This was definitely worth the day trip with the family. My two teens and 11 year old equally enjoyed the Dali museum and Girona. Our tour guide, Omid, had wonderful stories to share about the town and region. The Museum was more enjoyable having him explain its history and the work exhibited there. I highly recommend this tour.

Fabulous tour with pick-up hotel. Gaspar is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable on Dali’s life and his unique art work. He explained extensively Girona’s history. He kept the tour very interesting since start to finish.

An excellent day from start to finish. Miguel was a very well organised and good guide. He was very informative about everything allowing us time for coffee and lunch and taking photos of us for our memories.

We had a great experience with Luis! He was very knowledgeable and helpful. There was a lot of history I wasn’t aware of and he taught us quite abit! I would definitely recommend him for any tour in future.

Very nice guide Miquel. All day was perfect. I suggest this tour to everyone.
