City is amazing, but this is just a transfer service
Disclaimer: This is about the Girona full day tour. Not about any upgraded tour or about Girona itself. While Girona is a breathtaking city of everything just beautiful, my low rating is about the tour itself. Paying €44 for just a transportation and cathedral entry is way too much. We were dropped there and told we aren't entitled for a guided tour of Girona, unless we upgrade to include additional city (Figueres). My tour includes (Guide - English), but apparently nothing but the English spoken in the bus. You can't joing their guided tour in Girona itself unless you upgrade to go to another city! For such value of eventually doing it yourself, I could simply take the easily accessed bus or train and saved more than 50% of the price

Girona is fantastic. Helpful caring guides.
Girona was great. Fascinating city to explore. I loved walking along the fortified wall surrounding the old quarter. The guide was friendly, caring and interesting.

Poor experience
Terrible experience - I was on a full day Girona tour. The description says guide is included but it is not and I learnt this at the start. Secondly it says tickets to Cathedral and Basilica included but no one sent me the tickets. The bus driver told me to contact Julia Travel but no one picks up or if they do, not helpful as they are not able to understand it. Recommend booking directly and not via third party sites like Trip Advisor
Response from the operator: Dear customer, We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. Please note that this excursion is not a guided tour in Girona. The activity includes transportation and free time to explore the city at your own pace, as indicated in the tour description. Regarding the Cathedral tickets, these should have been provided as part of the service. We would recommend contacting the agency through which you made the booking with your reservation details so that the matter can be reviewed and clarified. Thank you for sharing your feedback. Best regards,

Girona and Figueres
Our guide, Sandra, was amazing! Very informative and even when we got lost going back to the meeting point she waited and found us to take us back to the bus! Girona, was a beautiful city and so happy to have seen the Dali museum in Figueres.

We chose the guided tour...
We chose the guided tour option. The 2 hour guided tour after considering that the guide spoke alternately in English and Spanish seemed more like a 1 hour tour. We regret not having taken the self guided option which included admission to the Cathedral. It was not included in the guided option.

Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Barcelona.
How much does Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona cost?
+
Prices start at €36 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Barcelona usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Barcelona is not rushed.
Is Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 282 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Barcelona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona?
+
Around 99 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Barcelona can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Barcelona and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Barcelona within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Barcelona?
+
Barcelona's Gaudí sites are capacity-limited and the official timed tickets go first, so most of the market is resellers with a guide attached. We weight those heavily on whether the guide is an architecture specialist. Beyond Gaudí, the tapas crawls in Gràcia and the Montserrat day trips carry the highest rankings in the city. On Outty we rank every Barcelona experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona, Gràcia Tapas and Vermouth Crawl, Girona & Dali Museum Small Group Tour with Pick-up from Barcelona. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Barcelona?
+
May, June, September and October. Sagrada Família light is best mid-morning. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Barcelona?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona?
+
Included: Transportation on an air-conditioned coach; Guided tour of Girona (if option selected); and Entrance to the Cathedral and Basilica of Sant Feliu. Not included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Food and beverages, unless specified. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona?
+
Find the Julia Travel Office in Barcelona Nord Station, ground floor, platform 19. Please check in at the counter. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Girona Full Day Tour from Barcelona?
+
