Join a 10-hour trip discovering the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Tarragona, then relax on the beaches in Stiges.
Join a 10-hour tour discovering the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Tarragona and spend a relaxing afternoon sunbathing on one of the 17 beaches in Stiges.
In Tarragona, retrace the footsteps of Roman gladiators and stand where chariots raced by. See the 2,000-year-old Roman aqueduct, known locally as ‘El Pont del Diable’ (The Devil’s Bridge). Over 200 metres long and nearly 30 metres high, it is one of the hidden jewels of the area.
From there, you'll continue down through the old town to discover the Roman Forum and the nearby Roman Circus hidden amidst the urban design. Walk along the underground passageways that hold the Circus’s stands and come to one of the most popular squares within the old town: Plaça de la Font.
Last, enjoy the sea views over the Roman amphitheatre and imagine gladiators battling each other to the death.
At 12:30 pm, leave Tarragona for Sitges. En route, stop briefly at Roc de Sant Gaieta, a little village built on the rocky shoreline. Stroll between its tiny white houses of the fishing villages built with a touch of Roman-Greco flair.
Arrive in Sitges at 2:00 pm and enjoy free time to have lunch on your own. This once quiet fishing village today boasts a long and sandy beach, groovy boutiques, and a handful of interesting sights. Sitges has been fashionable since the 1890s, when it became an avant-garde art-world hangout. Head off to one of the seventeen beaches in the town to relax on the coastline and take a swim in the turquoise waters.
