The Cathedral is located in the middle of the old city and in the highest part.
- Esglesia de Sant Feliu - This was the main temple of the city until the construction of the Cathedral. The church is dedicated to Sant Feliu, a martyr who died during the Christian persecution promoted by the roman emperor Diocletian. Inside the church there is the tomb of saint Narcissus.
- Sant Pere de Galligants - Built in Romanesque style actually has the archaeological museum of Girona.
- Girona Jewish Art - Both Jewish quarters from Girona and Besalú are the best preserved in Europe.
- Banys Àrabs - This structure is known under the name of Arabic bath because its architecture has the clear influence from the Muslim architecture.
- Muralles de Girona - From the French gardens we can start the way through the ancient city walls. From there we have great panoramic views of the old city.
- Dali Theatre-Museum - It holds the biggest collection of artwork that represent the artistic evolution of Salvador Dalí, from his origins to his latest works that are considered the top of the Spanish surrealism.
After a small introduction about the history of the museum and Dali’s live and career, you will be given plenty of free time to explore the museum and also Figueres by yourself. At the fixed time we will take the bus back to the centre of Barcelona.

Tour did not disappoint!! - What a day!! I loved how the tour left on time. Sarah was a wonderful tour guide. She was well-versed on the history. She seemed to enjoy talking about the history and shared a lot of information about Game of Thrones and it’s filming in Girona. We purchased the package for Girona, Figueres and the Dali museum. We were given free time in Girona before heading off to the other city. I wish we would have cut that free time short so that we could’ve gotten to the Dali museum and had more time to spend in the museum. We didn’t get through the entire museum, we only had approximately an hour and 20 minutes and there’s so much to see. Nonetheless, I still feel like the tour is a must do.

Go On This Day Trip with Sandra; She's Awesome - I absolutely loved the day trip to Girona and Figueres! Our tour guide, Sandra, was super friendly, knowledgeable, and wonderfully engaging. Sandra shared many interesting stories and anecdotes about Catalonian culture, pointed out many of the spots in Girona where Game of Thrones Season 6 was shot, and gave us as much time as possible to explore the Dalí Theatre and Museum. Because of her, we tried a delicious Catalonian dessert called "xuixo" and her recommendation to get the classic version filled with Catalonian cream was spot on. I could totally see myself gaining 30kg in one month from eating one every day. For anybody who loves Game of Thrones, wants to explore places just outside of Barcelona, or is interested in the artwork of Salvador Dalí, I totally recommend taking a day trip with Sandra.

Great day trip out of Barcelona - So glad we took this tour to the medieval city of Girona and to the Dali museum in Figueres. Our tour guide, Nuria, was engaging and enthusiastic throughout the day. She shared the legends of Girona, the places where Game of Thrones scenes were filmed, and allowed ample time in the Dali museum.

Beautiful but couldn’t see much with time given - Girona was beautiful. Guide Nuria was knowledgeable but spent too much time giving long rambling stories. Did not leave enough time to go in the baths or the cathedral. Very disappointed with time management. Dali museum was very cool.
