On this route, we will see that there really is a Roman city below the old town and an enthusiastic and experienced guide will explain the archaeological work done for its recovery.
We will also walk through beautiful alleys around the Cathedral, full of interesting stories and curiosities, and discover some of the surprising traditions of Tarragona, such as the impressive human towers.
And the tour will end on the impressive Mediterranean balcony, a viewpoint that offers excellent views of the port, the beach and, of course, the Mediterranean Sea.

Missed the best part
Our guide & driver were very nice & lovely. However the last time our guide was in Tarragona was 15 years ago & didn't really know where to go or what to do. As a result the ampi theatre by the ocean ( that we really wanted to see) closed as we walked up to the entrance. Was very disappointed to pay for private tour & not see the best part
Operator response
Perfect, thank you very much!!

A historic day
Tarragona was the third destination of the pack of 4 routes that my husband gave me for Christmas, all with "Living Barcelona" and all with Pedro as guide-driver. Girona and Barcelona we loved and Tarragona was the most "historic" for the Roman ruins that Pedro took us to, including all those of the city, the tower of the Sciiuones, the Arch of Berà and the Mèdol quarry. A historic day and a guide to recommend!!
