About this tour
A private nine-to-eleven-hour exploration from Barcelona through medieval Catalonia, combining Game of Thrones filming spots in Girona's atmospheric old town with the stone-built village of Pals and the coastal fishing settlement of Calella de Palafrugell. Your own vehicle and guide take you across Sant Pere de Galligants monastery, the cathedral, and Girona's Jewish quarter before heading inland to rice-growing country, then finishing on the Costa Brava shoreline where swimming and coastal walks are possible.
Highlights
- Girona's narrow lanes where GOT scenes were filmed
- Sant Pere de Galligants monastery and cathedral interiors
- Medieval Pals with its Romanesque stone architecture
- Calella de Palafrugell's working fishing harbour
- Swim or walk the Costa Brava coves
- Private transport throughout from Barcelona
What to expect
Expect a full day of movement across three distinct settings. Barcelona to Girona is roughly ninety minutes each way. You'll spend the morning on foot through Girona's maze-like streets, discovering architectural landmarks and learning their filming history. Lunchtime sees you in Pals—walking its compact centre takes an hour or so—where local rice dishes feature prominently. The afternoon brings you to Calella de Palafrugell's pebbly beach and harbour. Depending on your pace and swimming inclination, you'll have one to two hours here before the return journey to Barcelona.
Good to know
Lunch isn't included, though Pals has good local restaurants. Bring swimwear if you want to use Calella's waters. The day involves steady walking on uneven medieval stone; moderate fitness is essential. Poor cardiovascular health, spinal injuries, and pregnancy are contraindications.
