Activity itinerary

Barcelona (Pass by)

Start this tour directly from your hotel or apartment in Barcelona city. We come to pick you up, so please be sure to let us know exactly where you are staying.

Pont del Diable

Get on the road to head to Tarragona, a beautiful secret of the Mediterranean Coast. Before reaching Tarragona, stop at the Devil’s Bridge, a two-tier Roman aqueduct 217 metres long and 26 metres high, hidden among the pine woods. It carried water to the city for centuries and is still one of the finest examples of Roman engineering in Spain.

Tarragona

Begin your walk through Tarragona, once Tarraco, the capital of one of Rome’s largest provinces in Hispania and today a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its cobbled streets and shady squares were built right on top of the Roman city.

Anfiteatro

1h
Admission ticket included

Get the chance to get inside of the amphitheatre of Tarragona, the 13th UNESCO listed Roman remains. The amphitheatre was cut into the hillside leading up from the beach at the start of the second century AD and used to stage Gladiator contests and public executions.

Murallas de Tarragona

Walk along Tarragona’s Roman walls, among the oldest Roman constructions outside Italy. Some sections date back to the first military camp the Romans set up here.

Catedral Basilica Metropolitana Primada de Tarragona (Pass by)

See the cathedral, built in the 12th to 14th centuries on the site of an ancient Roman temple, where Romanesque and Gothic styles come together.

Monumento a los Castellers (Pass by)

On the Rambla Nova, stop by the bronze monument to the castellers, the human towers that are one of Catalonia’s most famous traditions, recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage.

Mercado Central de Tarragona (Pass by)

This basic but beautiful stop is fundamental to understanding Tarragona. The main market, Mercat Central, is located just off Rambla Nova and is housed in a Modernist hallmark building of 1915. This is where the heartbeat of the city lies and where to find fresh and seasonal products of the nearby rural area.

National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona (Pass by)

Pass in front of the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona, a public museum with elements and remains of its rich past. It promotes the recovery, conservation, research and dissemination of heritage from the Roman city of Tarraco and its area of influence. Listen to your guide to find out interesting stories of the Roman civilisation.

Model of Tarraco (Pass by)

See the large-scale model of Tarraco as it looked at its height in the 2nd century AD, a great way to understand how the Roman city was laid out.

Sitges

Once in Sitges, enjoy a walking tour through the streets and most hidden corners of its historical centre. Discover examples of architectural modernism like Casa Bacardi and get to know about the history of the Bacardi family. If you wish, take the time to sip a refreshing cocktail made by the hand of professional barmen and have a look at the secrets of the art of melting different flavours into colourful and tasty drinks. On sunny days, you can either take the time to relax and take a dip into the clear waters of the San Sebastian beach, known as one of the best urban beaches in Europe.

Church of Sant Bartomeu & Santa Tecla (Pass by)

Admire the 17th-century church standing on its rocky promontory above the sea, the most photographed spot in Sitges.

La Playa de Sitges

Enjoy the view of the Mediterranean and if time allows, take a dip at one of the most famous beaches of Europe.
