You will learn the history of the Catalan Jews that lived in Girona from 898 until 1492. The Girona Jewish quarter is a labyrinth of little streets and old courtyards, one of the most well-preserved in Europe from the medieval period. If you have been a few days in Barcelona and you are tired of the tourist crowds, the ancient city of Girona is the perfect place to visit to escape the bustle of Barcelona. Girona is only 36 minutes taking the speed train and by car it is only 100 km. Tour is very flexible if there is something that you want to change during the tour is also possible. If you want to visit the Girona Jewish museum, let me know during the tour, and we can finish the tour there. To visit the museum calculate at least 30 minutes.

Visit the Archaeological Gardens near Montjuïc Mountain, known as the Jewish Mountain.
