A complete tour from Palamós: medieval history in Girona and Hostalric, local lunch, luxury shopping at La Roca Village and return to your cruise ship surrounded by culture, scenery and style.
We will start our trip at the agreed time from the cruise terminal in Palamós.
Our first stop will be Girona, known as the "city of the four rivers". We will start the tour at the Stone Bridge (Pont de Pedra), one of the most iconic points of the city, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the Onyar River and the famous colorful houses that line its banks. From there, we will head to the Barri Vell, Girona's old town, a labyrinth of narrow cobblestone streets full of history. In this picturesque neighborhood, we will visit Girona Cathedral, famous for its impressive Baroque façade and for housing the widest Gothic nave in the world. The cathedral is also a prominent setting for the popular "Game of Thrones" series.
We will culminate our tour of Girona with a walk along the ancient city walls. This tour will offer spectacular views of both the city and the surrounding area, allowing you to appreciate how Girona was defended in medieval times. The walls are accessible from various points in the old town and provide a unique perspective of the city.
Next, we will stop for lunch at a local restaurant, where you can enjoy the gastronomy of the region.
Then we will head to Hostalric Castle, where you will enjoy a guided tour by accredited local guides who will accompany you in the discovery of this imposing fortress, which has played an important role in different episodes of the history of Catalonia. The guided tour, lasting approximately 1h30, will allow you to understand the evolution of this medieval castle into a modern fortress. You will learn about the reasons behind its transformation, the construction system used and the defensive elements typical of this fortification. During the tour, you will have access to the most noble room of the castle, the knight, a space of the old Cabrera castle, where the most surprising details of the history of the building will be explained to you. The visit culminates in the parade ground, where you can enjoy an excellent panoramic view of the area, overlooking the Montseny massif, Montsoriu Castle and the Montengre Corredor mountain range.
