Return Details

Plaça de Catalunya, 08002 Barcelona, Spain Depending on the size of the tour and the traffic conditions on the day of the tour, you will return either to our office or Arc de Triomf, which is just an easy 10 minutes walk from the office.

  • Explore Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain
    8.15am - You will start your day at our main office, which is right next to the famous Palau de la Musica. You will meet your guide, have time to use the restrooms, and perhaps even grab a quick coffee before the tour begin. Your guide will explain all about the day ahead and what to expect as you wait for you tour to leave.
  • Eixample, Barcelona, Spain
    8.30am - You will leave Barcelona though the Example district of town. As you head out of the city, your guide will give you a brief history of Barcelona, before letting you sit back and relax on the 90 minute drive to Tarragona.
  • Pont del Diable, Tarragona, Spain
    10.00am - Your first stop of the day is just past Tarragona, where you will discover the impressive Roman Aqueduct (1st century BC) popularly known as 'El Pont del Diable' (The Devil's Bridge) or 'Les Ferreres' Aqueduct. It used to be part of the water supply network of the city and today stands in almost perfect condition. You will be able to walk across the top from one side to another. It's quite an unforgettable moment to be standing on some built almost 2,000 years ago! From the aqueduct you will travel back to Tarragona.
    40 minutes
  • Anfiteatro, Tarragona, Spain
    11.00am - You will arrive in Tarragona quietly entering the old part of the city through a narrow gateway in the ancient walls. Nowadays, the new city overlaps the site of the ancient Acropolis and during your visit you will see firsthand the surprising coexistence of a Roman past and modern life. Starting at the Archaeological walkway, you will admire the surviving stone walls, wander through the historic old quarter - passing the medieval hospital - before stopping at the Cathedral where you can enjoy the Sunday morning antique market. From there, you continue down through the old town to discover the Roman Forum and the nearby Roman Circus hidden amidst the urban design. Walk along the underground passageways that held the Circus' stands and come to one of the most popular squares within the old town, Placa de la Font, situated inside the Roman Circus. If you stand very still and close your eyes, you can almost hear the chariots racing by. On this very spot, thousands of years ago on, perhaps on the very same day of the week, the Roman capital of the Iberian Peninsula came alive in all of its bloody glory. And last, but certainly not least, enjoy the breathtaking seaview over the Roman amphitheater and imagine gladiators battling each other to the death! It's a poignant moment to stand on the same dusty ground that bore witness to countless scenes of sacrifice and passion. Perhaps most fascinating of all is the Christian church built in the middle of the stage out of the very same blocks that were used in their amphitheater. After your immersion in Roman history, you will meet your guide and continue our tour at around 1.00pm.
    120 minutes
  • El Roc de Sant Gaieta, Roda de Bara, Spain
    1.30pm . On your way to Sitges, you will stop briefly at Roc de Sant Gaieta, an intimate little village built on the rocky shoreline. Stroll between its tiny white houses and let your imagination take you away to Ibiza fishing villages built with a touch of Roman-Greco flair.
    20 minutes
  • La Playa de Sitges, Sitges, Spain
    2.30pm - Your final stop of the day is in Sitges. This once quiet fishing village today boasts a long and sandy beach, groovy boutiques, and a handful of interesting sights. Sitges has been fashionable since the 1890s. Get lost in its shady side streets and enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere with its old whitewashed fisherman's houses. After leaving this charming labyrinth, you suddenly find yourself on the seafront. Make a stop in one of the numerous cosmopolitan cafes and restaurants and imagine yourself in St. Tropez. Sitges has dining options to suit every taste and budget. After a leisurely lunch, you might want to head off to one of the 17 beaches the town has to offer for a quick dip in the Med, or browse the many shops and cafes. You will leave Sitges around 5.30pm.

Our guide, Stephen, was friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed the day learning about the Roman Empire and the visit to Sitges with the others in our small group.
