About this tour
A private eight-hour circuit through two Catalan coastal towns with a local guide. Begin in Tarragona, where Roman amphitheatres and forums anchor the Old Town beneath a Gothic cathedral. Then head south to Sitges, a seaside retreat lined with galleries, independent shops, and beach bars. Transport and guidance included; you choose where to eat.
Highlights
- Walk through Tarragona's Roman amphitheatre overlooking the sea
- Cathedral blends Romanesque and Gothic architecture
- Sitges' bohemian vibe: galleries, vintage shops, coastal promenade
- Local guide shares stories of both towns' pasts
- Flexible downtime to eat and explore at your own pace
- Private car transport between locations
What to expect
Your guide collects you from Barcelona and drives you south to Tarragona, arriving within the hour. Spend the morning wandering the Old Town's narrow streets, stopping at the amphitheatre and cathedral—both merit unhurried exploration. You'll get a feel for how Roman engineering shaped the place. After lunch (on your dime), head to Sitges, a 40-minute drive away. Here, the pace is gentler: meander the seafront, duck into art galleries, browse independent boutiques. Sitges rewards aimless wandering more than rigid sightseeing.
Good to know
Wear comfortable shoes; both towns involve substantial walking on cobbles and uneven ground. Food and drinks aren't included, so budget for lunch and coffee stops. Infant car seats available on request. Bring sun protection for the coastal stretches. Guide speaks English and Catalan.
