Tarragona Historical "More than 2,000 years of stories". (Dramatized by local guide)
The tour lasts 2 hours
Available in Spanish
Description
I am a native of this city, passionate about history and culture, in love with my city and our archaeological culture. I believe that Tarragona is not sufficiently valued and publicized to the rest of Spain, and that is why I want to contribute my bit by doing this free tour with the idea that it will be enjoyable and fun for people of any age and culture.
The tour will begin at the Balcó del Mediterrani. An important local character from the time, a senator from the 1st-century Tarraco, has appeared in our century thanks to a time machine and wants to guide us through the city to tell the story, summarizing it from the arrival of the Roman Empire to the present day.
The route will continue to the Amphitheater, where we will learn about the distractions of the Roman people and their gladiator fights.
The next stop will be the Roman Circus. We will experience an exciting and unique show from the era.
We will go to see the Tower of the Pretorium and its different uses over 2,000 years.
The route will proceed to see a part of the Roman and medieval wall, within whose stones there will be many stories to tell,
We will enter the old town until we reach the modernist-era building, now the offices and rectorate of the Rovira i Virgili University; we will learn about its architecture and its surprising original use. You will guess it.
We will stop on Portal del Carro street to explain the history and martyrdom of our patron Saint Magi.
Next, we will 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 with archaeological remains of the Provincial Forum of the Colony. You will say goodbye to the character and can take photographs.
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 Historic Tarragona. See you soon!”

Guiding since 2026PRO
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 share stories from different eras, cultures, and art that local historians and architects have taught me, and which I've prepared along with my own experience. Both I and the visitors enjoy these tours. It's an educational, interactive, and humorous tour.
