With this tour, enjoy a guided visit to Girona & take a step into the surreal world of the enigmatic artist Salvador Dalí at the Dalí Museum in Figueres.
Dali Museum of Figueres & Girona Tour
We'll meet in Girona's old quarter, where we'll follow in the footsteps of the ancient Roman and Jewish communities as we explore their cultural and architectural heritage in the so-called "City of the Four Rivers". You'll also see the Cathedral, which has the widest Gothic nave in the world.
Explore the magical neighbourhood known as the "Call", which is one of the best-preserved Jewish Quarters in the world. The guided tour then continues to the old city walls, where you'll admire the historic monuments, churches and buildings of Girona. During the tour, the guide will reveal all the legends and stories that surround this ancient city.
With the tour of Gerona over, we'll head to Figueres, where we'll visit the museum dedicated to the great artist himself. The Dalí Museum takes you on a tour through the career of the celebrated Catalan artist from the first works of his formative youth through to his last, more commercial creations. The museum itself was one of Dalí's creations. The artist converted the old theatre of Figueres into a place to display his ever-increasing collection of work.
During the two hour visit to the museum, your guide will explain all the details and secrets of Dali's life to help you to understand the complicated mind of the artist. You'll find some of his most famous works here, including Port Alguer, Muchacha de Figueres, Galarina, and La Cesta de Pan, among many others. There are also works of art by other artists such as El Greco, Maria Fortuny, and Ernest Meissonier.
Finally, leaving the Dalí museum and Figueres behind, we'll head back to the centre of Gerona.
