Montserrat Tour
This is one of the most beautiful Barcelona Sightseeing Tours which combines spirituality, nature and culture at less than 50 kilometers away from Barcelona.
The Benedictine abbey, located in the mountains of Montserrat, hosts the Virgin of Montserrat, known as "La Moreneta", the black virgin. The legend of the Virgin of Montserrat is fascinating. Click here in case you would like to read more about.

Sitges and Tarragona Tour
The City of Sitges was a former medieval fortress and a fishing village located at a few Kilometers from Barcelona, as part of the Costa Dorada Spain Beaches. Nowadays, Sitges is very popular among gays.
This area is also a holiday place for the people of Barcelona, besides being a special place for artists like Rusiñol, Miro, Picasso and Dali. The Modernism influenced Sitges, so that you can appreciate art and culture.
More to the south, we reach Tarragona, the main city of the Costa Dorada Spain Beaches, with an important Roman heritage. You can see the Wall surrounding the old city, the Aqueduct, the Forum and the Amphitheater, among others. They were declared World Heritage by the UNESCO in 2000.
You will have a nice experience during your visit to the Roman ruins of Tarraco, the Museum of Archeology and the gates in the Wall surrounding the old city.

Salvador Dali and Girona
This is a kind of Barcelona Sightseeing Tour that you can not miss. You will visit the town of Figueres. Here is the Dali Museum, which is one of the most visited in Spain.
Dali, the surrealist master, set up his Museum which burned out during the Spanish Civil war. He spent some time in this town before his death. Nice town where you will enjoy its beauty, the buildings and the surrounding nature.
The ancient city of Girona grew from the borders of the original Roman layout, still preserved in the old quarter.
You will appreciate interesting buildings, the Jewry, the fabulous mansions, the famous shopping street called Rambla, the gothic Cathedral, and the streets of the old quarter, among other attractions. It is worth to visit the historical Girona City, walk around, see the sites. You will love it.

This Barcelona Sightseeing Tour is ussually combined with a visit to the city of Girona.
Costa Brava is located in the region of Spain Beaches that begin in Barcelona and extends to the North, to the border with France.
