Itinerary
Check in at our office in the centre of Barcelona at least 15 minutes before the tour departure time. From there, you will board a comfortable air-conditioned bus, where you can relax and enjoy the journey. The trip to Girona takes approximately an hour and a half, the perfect amount of time to disconnect and let yourself be carried away by the excitement of what is to come. When you arrive to Girona, you will immerse yourself in one of the most fascinating cities in Catalonia, famous for its history, medieval streets and magical atmosphere. Follow your guide on a two-hour walking tour through the heart of Girona. You will discover the richness of its historic centre, walk through its cobbled streets and see the remains of its ancient walls. Your guide will teach you about the city's Roman origins and share its myths and legends with you. Once the guided tour is over, you will have an hour of free time to explore the city at your own pace.
Reunite with your guide to head to the Dalí Theatre-Museum. When you arrive in Figueres, you will enter the Dalí Museum, the building that now houses the collection, a reconstruction of the original, as the first one was burned down during the Spanish Civil War. Enter the museum and marvel at the extensive collection of the artist's works. Observe the artist's artistic evolution over the years and admire some of his most important works. The museum is a perfect representation of the great historical and artistic value of his work. Once the tour of the Museum is over, we will get back on the bus to return to Barcelona. We will finish in the same place where we started the tour.

Traveler reviews
Horrible. I would not...
Horrible. I would not recommend. Was not treated well. Could not attend and was not refunded or given credit
Dali!!
Carlos, the guide, was very informative and explained everything very well. We had time to see what we liked. The recommendations in Girona were beautiful. The driver and Carlos made for one of the best days of my vacation.
Highly Recommend
Sandra and Jessica were lovely, helpful and made the excursion fun. Wasn't expecting to enjoy Girona, Dali museum was my goal. I was very pleasantly surprised. If you are a Game of Thrones fan, a must! Sorry I missed the flower festival. Loved the Dali Museum
Disappointing
Very little time in Figueres, barely 1 hour, badly organized, for the price that has cost little time in both places
Poor communication for Dali.
This trip was cancelled by Julia travel. I was never notified so wasted Cab fare traveling to and from meeting point. Waiting to hear from trip advisor about my refund $100+. I stayed extra time to visit this museum and without being notified of cancellation I was unable to book something else exceptable. I received my tickets the day before by message. Julia Travel said trip advisor should have notified me about cancellation as they had all my information.
