Our take
A good companion to the classic Girona walking tour: you pass through the same corners of the Barri Vell, but through stories you will not find in guidebooks. Cheap, short and in small groups, it fits nicely into a free evening.

Meeting point
Plaça de Sant Feliu, 17004 Girona.
The tour starts in Plaça de Sant Feliu in the Barri Vell, next to the church of the same name.
The experience
What you will see
- The narrow lanes and squares of the Barri Vell under the street lamps.
- The places where the city's myths and legends were born.
- Medieval corners near the city walls and the Jewish Quarter.
How it works
You meet in Plaça de Sant Feliu and spend an hour and a half walking through the old town with a local guide, who stops at each spot to tell the story or mystery linked to it. The tales come from research and from accounts passed down through generations. There is no entry to monuments.
Who I recommend it for
- Anyone who has seen Girona by day and wants another angle on the city.
- Couples, friends and families curious about history.
Who I don't recommend it for
- Anyone wanting to go inside places like the cathedral or the Arab Baths.
- Anyone expecting a horror show with jump scares.
