    (Translated by Google) I really liked the tour. Quim has shown us the most emblematic places of Girona with their respective history and with a touch of humor. Highly recommended (Original) Me gusto mucho el tour. Quim nos ha enseñado los lugares más emblemáticos de Girona con su respectiva historia y con un toque de humor. Muy recomendable

    Lovely & Professional tour provided by Quim. I signed up for a tour on the Christmas Day and loved that Quim is so dedicated and passionate about what he is doing. Silly me thought the tour will be conducted in English and it turned out to be a Spanish tour, but I’ve decided to tagged along, throughout the 2 hours tour Quim was trying to explain to me in English (he speaks perfect English, which is kinda rare in Spain) on some of the key historical topics, really appreciated that he goes extra miles to make sure that the only non-Spanish speaking me don’t feel neglected. So if you are reading this and deciding should you sign this up, look no further, give it a try and you won’t regret it.

    My partner and I went on a free walking tour with Joan Marc and he was great! His English was nice and clear, his knowledge about the very beautiful city of Girona was insightful and he kept the tour interesting for 2 hours. Despite the rain at times, Joan Marc kept it positive and made sure we were okay with the rain. Make sure you do a free walking tour with Girona Free Tour when in Girona. Highly recommended!

    chose this tour for English @ 11am. We took the train from Barcelona to Girona. Easy trip and walked from the station to the meeting place. Juan was great. Learned a lot of history and it was an easy walk. Great suggestion for lunch afterwards! would definitely recommend.

    Joan-Marc is a fantastic guide and spokesperson for Girona. He is funny, informative, friendly and professional and provides great insights into the history and culture of the city and region. I would highly recommend taking this tour of the city and looking into other tours offered by his company.

  • 5/5 Joe M. 5 months ago on Google • 11 reviews
    Juan Marc was excellent. Highly recommend you do this for history, architecture and foodies alike. You’ll get recommendations from a local who happens to have a great sense of humour and love for his home town.

    Wonderful tour! Our guide Juan Marc (John) was great. He was entertaining, informative and provided great local tips. Take this tour on your first day in Girona and you'll be set up well for a great visit.

  • 5/5 Allan J S. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great tour with Quim. He share insights in an engaging way, sharing history, from ancient to very recent. We emerged with a deeper appreciation of the enchanting city of Girona.

  • 5/5 Chris e. 1 year ago on Google
    Joan took us on the tour. It’s was brilliant. His knowledge was fantastic but great personality so great laughs thrown in. Girona is a magical place and this made it all the better. Lots of new knowledge learned. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Dan M. 1 year ago on Google
    Joan was an excellent guide and kept us entertained as he explained history and architecture of the area. He was adept at engaging all members of the tour group and made great shopping and restaurant recommendations as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 hour tour.

    I just had the best tour with John! We were lucky to have a beautiful day, however John was so knowledgable at every spot and give us extra local info on the best places to eat, drink and other adventures! As a women solo traveller, I felt safe, welcomed and loved every minute! Thank you John!

  • 5/5 Caroline F. 1 year ago on Google
    Our guide was well-informed, friendly, and eager to give us an interesting and amusing tour. I liked that he gave us some brief personal and political comments .

  • 5/5 Lauren M. 10 months ago on Google
    Kimi was a great tour guide, full of stories and anecdotes about the history of Girona and Girona today. He also gave us background about Girona football and other sports teams and you could tell he’s passionate about the local teams!. His English was very good. The tour proceeded at a moderate pace. We were never rushed and he gave us time for photos. He was always smiling and was very good at keeping us together and directing us on narrow streets. I enjoyed the tour very much and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the background of Girona.

  • 5/5 Rihana M. 11 months ago on Google
    We had a great experience on this Girona walking tour. Our guide Jon Marc was very friendly, funny, and informative. He taught us a lot about the history of Girona and provided some recommendations about sites to see while we are in town. The local xuixo was a delicious treat that should not be missed! Would highly recommend this tour.

  • 5/5 Jennifer H. 10 months ago on Google
    A really good introduction to Girona from a passionate local. Juan Marcos was excellent, sharing history and many highlights. We will explore the city now with a much better sense of the culture, food and the stories it has to tell.

  • 5/5 Lincoln C. 1 year ago on Google
    A wonderful way to see and learn about the beautiful city that is Girona. Our guide John (Juan) was knowledgeable, funny and personable. Can’t recommend highly enough. Although it is a free guided tour, a tip is a must and Juan deserved every dollar of our €40 tip (for our family of 3).

  • 5/5 Marc C. 2 years ago on Google
    Fun tour of the city, stopping in almost every point of interest. We covered a lot of places in the 2h it lasts! Quim is a fun guide, which added to the experience. It was good to book the morning slot, finishing in time for lunch :)

  • 5/5 Andreea D. 3 years ago on Google
    Nice, informative tour of this beautiful city 😊 I took the tour in Spanish, with Dani and I was pleasantly surprised to discover some history and fun facts about Girona, having lived here a long time already. It's never too late to learn something new! Highly recommended tour 👍

  • 5/5 Emilie B. 3 years ago on Google
    Very interesting tour, great guides. Quim is very friendly and knows a lot of fun and quirky facts and stories about his city. I higly recommend!

  • 5/5 Massimo Perego M. 2 years ago on Google
    Muy interesante este free tour! La capacidad del guía de contarnos la historia de Girona, con sus hechos y anécdotas, te sabe despertar mucha curiosidad hacia esta ciudad. Hemos descubierto muchas cosas nuevas y conocido la ciudad como nunca hubiéramos hecho sin un guía tan experto e interesante :-)

  • 5/5 cristina espinosa del r. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Great idea to get to know the most important areas and the history behind them of this beautiful city. Dani, our guide, very friendly and with great charm and willingness to tell us everything and bring us the best experience. Without a doubt, it will be necessary to visit some of the points of the tour carefully once the tour is finished, for example, walking the wall (Original) Gran idea para poder conocer las zonas más importantes y la historia detrás de ellas de esta hermosa ciudad. Dani, nuestro guía, muy amable y con un gran encanto y disposición para contarnos todo y llevarnos la mejor experiencia. Sin duda será necesario visitar algunos de los puntos del recorrido con detenimiento una vez terminado el recorrido, por ejemplo, caminar la muralla

    (Translated by Google) Excellent visit and Dani, the guide, knows very well what he explains and is a great connoisseur of his city, as well as very pleasant. Recommended 100% (Original) Visita excelente y Dani, el guía, sabe muy bien lo que explica y es gran conocedor de su ciudad, además de muy agradable. Recomendable 100%

  • 5/5 Ulugbek A. 1 year ago on Google
    I enjoyed this tour a lot! It brings a special spark to usual things that we have in town. As if you traveled back in time and saw how Girona was built. Totally recommended!!

  • 5/5 Carlos S. 2 years ago on Google
    A tour full og history and covering the most hidden details of Girona. I'm glad that I started my visit with this tour.

  • 5/5 Sharon C. 2 years ago on Google
    Great tour of Girona, a must for anyone visiting for the first time!

  • 1/5 Rick B. 1 year ago on Google
    We have enjoyed quite a few “free tours” in the past – Toledo, Madrid etc – and have always tipped generously at the end, as you should. So we were delighted to see a free English language walking tour was available for Girona as we were staying nearby. So we signed up and looked forward to the day! The guide for the day was Ricardo. He started his tour at the meeting place where he recounted, in excessive detail, the origins of the city and its location. He continued in the same vein for the next two stops. By the time we had reached the Eiffel Bridge we could take no more and quietly slipped away. Why? The guide spoke quickly in a monotone voice and provided far more detail than was necessary or needed. He did not engage with his group nor did he interact with them. I have never seen someone less suited to a job. Previous tour guides in other cities have been outward going, humorous, engaging, likeable people who delivered just the right amount of information to inform the visitor yet maintain interest. How sad that this promising tour turned out to be such a disappointment!

  • 5/5 Jill G. 1 year ago on Google
    We did the Historic, Legends and Food tour. I usually have no interest in food tours but it was great. Food was a tasty pastry along the way which served as a nice little stop. Ricky was an excellent guide. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly.

  • 5/5 Isabella B. 1 year ago on Google
    Our guide Quimi was an excellent tour guide very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us the best experience possible. 10/10 would book again

    Excellent walking tour around Girona. Despite a large group, Joan Mark managed the group effectively, finding shade and space to deliver his speech ensuring others could pass by. Learnt lots of new information about Girona. Totally recommend this tour group.

    Really enjoyed the tour & meeting people from different countries. Special mention for our Guide Dani - who was great - he facilitated me individually ( in English ) when I signed up to tour en espana!🥲 I would def. recommend the tour. Conor, Dublin 🇮🇪
