Overview

  • Discover the medieval heart of Catalonia on this small-group day trip from Barcelona for up to eight travellers, with a local guide and hotel pick-up and drop-off.

    Begin in Vic, where a 2nd-century Roman temple hides among the streets around one of Catalonia’s grandest main squares, with free time to try the town’s famous cured sausages.

    Then head into the volcanic landscapes of La Garrotxa: stop to photograph Castellfollit de la Roca, perched on the edge of a basalt cliff, and stroll through the stone lanes of Santa Pau. End the day in Besalú: cross its iconic medieval bridge over the Fluvià River, admire Romanesque churches such as Sant Pere, and hear from your guide about the Jewish community that once thrived in its narrow streets.

    • Small group of maximum 8 travellers
    • Four medieval towns in a single day
    • Cross the fortified bridge of Besalú
    • Photo stop at the cliff-top village of Castellfollit

Activity itinerary

Barcelona

  • 30m
Start this tour directly from your hotel or apartment in Barcelona city. We come to pick you up, so please be sure to let us know exactly where you are staying.

Placa Major

  • 3h
Start in Vic, a historic market town at the heart of central Catalonia. Its arcaded Plaça Major, one of the largest squares in the region, has hosted markets since the Middle Ages and still comes alive every Tuesday and Saturday. Enjoy free time to taste the local gastronomy, especially Vic’s famous cured sausages, with tips from your guide on where to eat.

Catedral de Sant Pere de Vic (Pass by)

See the Cathedral of Sant Pere, where an 11th-century Romanesque bell tower stands beside a neoclassical church. Inside, the walls are covered with dramatic murals by the Catalan painter Josep Maria Sert.

Templo Romano de Vic (Pass by)

Discover a 2nd-century Roman temple that lay hidden for centuries inside the walls of a medieval castle, until it was rediscovered in 1882 during the castle’s demolition.

Castellfollit de la Roca

  • 30m
Stop for photos of one of Catalonia’s most striking views: a village built on the edge of a basalt cliff around 50 metres high, formed by ancient lava flows between two rivers.

Santa Pau

  • 2h
Enter the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park to reach Santa Pau, a small medieval village of stone houses gathered around its baronial castle and porticoed square. Walk through its quiet lanes with your guide and discover a village that has barely changed in centuries.

Besalu

  • 3h
End the day in Besalú, one of the best-preserved medieval towns in Catalonia. Cross its 11th-century fortified bridge over the Fluvià River, with its gate tower in the middle, and step into a maze of cobbled streets and Romanesque churches such as the monastery church of Sant Pere. Your guide will tell you about the Jewish community that lived here in the Middle Ages, one of the most important in the region.
