Tarragona Historic "More than 2,000 years of stories"

I am a native guide from Tarragona and one day I thought I should create a tour that was somewhat different from the rest, more original and interactive so that walkers of any age or intellect could understand the historical richness of this city.

We start the tour at the Mediterranean Balcony. A postcard image, where we will navigate to the beginning of the history of Tarraco.


We will continue to the Amphitheater, where we will learn about the distractions of the Roman people and their gladiator fights.

Our next stop will be the Roman Circus. We will experience an exciting and unique show of the era. We will go to see the Tower of the Pretorians and its different uses over 2,000 years.

We will proceed to see a part of the Roman and medieval wall, within whose stones there will be many stories to tell.

We will move into the old town until we reach the building from the modernist era and the current offices and rectorate of the Rovira i Virgili University; we will learn about its architecture and its original use.

We continue our little journey to observe two buildings: the old Seminary and the Archbishop's Palace.

Next, we approach the facade of the cathedral, with Romanesque and Gothic art, to explain the details of its facade, but also stories and fables from its interior.

Our little journey comes to an end at the Forum square, a social place for discussions and ancient conspiracies.

I would like us all to learn together on this tour, for it to be educational, joyful, and interactive, with surprises and notes of humor. See you in Historical Tarragona. See you soon!”

Tours since 2026
I'm a family-oriented person with a good sense of humor who loves to travel. Years ago, I was a guide inside Tarragona Cathedral, and although I now work in a different field, I enjoy leading free walking tours through the historic center some afternoons. I want to share stories from different eras, cultures, and art that local historians and architects have taught me, and now, with the preparation I've done, I have a tour ready to start next April. I want it to be educational, interactive, and humorous.
