Girona & Game of Thrones Tour

Girona & Game of Thrones Tour

Start your excursion by boarding a comfortable air-conditioned coach at 8 am from Barcelona’s Estación del Nord. Head to the historic city of Girona, in the northeast of Catalonia, and get ready to explore the numerous filming locations of the sixth season of Game of Thrones.

Upon arrival, you’ll be led through Girona’s picturesque Old Town (Barri Vell) by a professional English-speaking guide. Discover this two-thousand-year-old town by visiting landmarks like La Força Vella, established by the Romans in the first century B.C. The stairs leading to the Cathedral and its baroque façade were transformed into the Great Sept of Baelor, setting of numerous scenes in the Game of Thrones’ sixth season. Next, explore the Medieval Quarter, constructed between the eleventh and fifteenth century.

And as we explore, we'll find ourselves in front of the Church of Sant Feliu and the Monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants, taken as the library of Antigua in the series. Girona is also home to Call, one of the best preserved Jewish Quarters in Europe, with its typical narrow streets that resemble a labyrinth.

Once you’ve recognized the various parts of the city that have been shot in the Game of Thrones, you’ll have time to continue exploring one of Catalonia’s most beautiful cities at your own pace.

Then you'll climb back on the coach and head back to Barcelona, where you’ll be dropped off at around 2 pm.
