    About this experience

    You will be surprised to see how many sites this city has to offer. You may recognize parts of Girona, even though you’ve never been here before and that’s because parts of season six of Game of Thrones were filmed here. Girona doubled up as Braavos, Old Town, and even some parts of King’s Landing. You will probably be able to identify the steps in the Jewish Quarter where the blind Ayra Stark sits begging, and the steps to the Cathedral where Jamie Lannister rides up on horseback. All you need is one day and our guide to see the best of Girona! Your guide will pick you up at your hotel or at your cruise ship in the port. You will take a speed train to Girona to see the famous Jewish Quarter, the Cathedral, Medieval Walls, the bridge made by Eifel, and much more. After all, you will take a train back.

    7 Day MSC Cruise to the Mediterranean.

    We left Phoenix May 18 and traveled via Air Canada to Lisbon. There we spent 3 wonderful days exploring the city before we boarded a flight to Barcelona. We had one day to spend in Barcelona before boarding a 7 day Mediterranean cruise on the MSC Splendida. Our itinerary took us to Marseille (Provence), France, Livorno (Florence), Italy, Cagliari (Sardinia), Palermo Italy, La Valletta Malta and back to Barcelona. Of the above sites we could easily have bypassed Marseille and Palermo. Palmero was the worst stop. Garbage was everywhere, traffic jams and horns blaring filled the air. It was complete waste of time. The MSC cruise ship/experience was very similar to the Royal Caribbean cruise we took out of Venice last year. The difference came down to three items: 1. MSC stopped water service after breakfast. If you wanted a glass of water you had to pay for it! 2. The smell of smoke was everywhere on the MSC ship. It was supposed to be limited to specific sections but we regularly saw people walking on all decks both smoking cigarettes and vaping while crew members ignored it. 3. There was no adult pool on the MSC ship. You always had children to contend with wherever you laid out. The crew and entertainment were first rate. The food was what you expect to get on a cruise. If you want something "special" you book a reservation at a specialty restaurant and pay extra, which we did one night. One final note; there were probably under 20 Americans on this cruise and we were delighted to spend time with so many people from Europe. We never had a bad experience and if MSC would make just a couple of changes we might book with them again.

    Barging with Croisi Europe around the stunning Belgium waterways.

    My husband & I embarked on the French vessel MS Raymonde one evening in October 2025. This comfortable, well-appointed barge would take us cruising along the waterways of Belgium for 7 days and 6 nights. MS Raymonde is part of the fleet owned by the French company, Croisi Europe. After settling into our cabins, we were greeted by the friendly English-speaking crew with a welcome cocktail, followed by our first on-board French cuisine dinner, prepared by the very talented and creative French chef. This was a promising start to a friendly and comfortable cruise along the amazing network of Belgian canals and the excellent excursions to heritage Belgian cities and the thrill of passing through numerous locks, one in particular - the Strépy-Thieu boat lift. Construction of this lift began in 1982 and was completed in 2002 to replace a system of two locks and four 16 metre lifts dating from 1888 to 1900 at an estimated cost of €160 million. I must admit, when going through the locks, I found it difficult to tell if our barge was going up or down! I wasn’t the only one!!! On board, the cabins are small but adequate, well-equipped and bright with a full-size en-suite. There is a Lovely sitting area with a bar and a hot spa on the lower deck, plus a large sun deck for sun-seekers. All meals and drinks are included with free WiFi on board. Headsets are included for excursions and guided tours. Guided tours included the beautiful cities of Ghent, Bruges, Mons, Halle, and, of course, the capital of Belgium, Brussels, where we marvelled at the Grand-Place with its magnificent, richly decorated facade and tower of City Hall, one of the most beautiful buildings in the country. Cruising is gentle, and it is relaxing to watch the scenery as we sail by. I would highly recommend this relaxing Croisi Europe Barge Cruise to discover the best of Belgium's waterways and historic cities. Jeanette Savage

    Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Barcelona.

    How much does Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona cost?

    +

    Prices start at $309 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 Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 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 Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Barcelona, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona?

    +

    Around 1 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour: Get into one of the oldest medieval cities in Europe – Girona 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 Gràcia Tapas and Vermouth Crawl, Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel & Cliff Jump from Barcelona, Costa Brava Tour: Kayak, Snorkel, Cliff Jump & lunch Small Group. 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.
