Your private guide will pick you up at your hotel in his car and drive you through time.
You will visit Rupit, considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. It is almost a postcard, its stone houses of the XVI-XVIII centuries, its cobbled streets of old layout, the flowers on the balconies, its medieval hanging bridge, its shops with rural atmosphere, and that aroma of bread. Without a doubt, Rupit is one of the most picturesque rural centres in Spain, located just over 100 kilometres from Barcelona and transports the traveller to the middle ages, as if time had remained frozen. This curious pedestrian village, where cars cannot circulate, is made up of rustic houses, some of which are more than 400 years old. Now it is one of the tourist places with history of the province of Barcelona and all Catalonia.
Admire the fantastic nature of Catalonia, while you are on your way to the next destination: Besalu. There are many things that will surprise you about this town: the Medieval Bridge, an 11th century construction, refurbished many times throughout history. The walls were built to protect the city and the castle. In the centre of the city the Plaza Mayor stands out, in which you can observe important buildings such as the Town Hall, the Tourist Office and the Royal Curia, construction of beautiful Gothic windows and of invaluable artistic richness.
Are you hungry? you will enjoy a delicious catalan lunch at one restaurant in front of the lake of Banyoles.
Next stop: Girona. This medieval city has a lot of history. Meet the Cathedral, the Basilica of Sant Feliu and tour the Jewish Quarter, one of the best preserved in Europe, with narrow streets full of mystery, the walls of the ninth century, are an unmissable point to visit.
Immerse yourself in the medieval history and the fascinating landscapes of Catalonia, you won't regret it!!!

An experience to savour
This was a private full day tour with a tour guide taking us to the beautiful and serene medieval towns of Rupit, Besalu and Girona (the old part of town). Rupit was like a picturesque postcard from heaven. Besalu and Girona were larger but equally scenic and had the old world charm in their own way. In between all this we stopped for lunch at a lovely restaurant.
