Overview

Discover Besalú, one of the best preserved medieval villages in Catalonia, on a small group guided tour accompanied by a local guide. An experience that combines medieval heritage, Jewish heritage and local cuisine in a unique setting.

We will begin by exploring the iconic Romanesque bridge of the 12th century, one of the most emblematic images of the region. Next, we will enter the Jewish quarter, where you will learn about its history, cultural legacy and its importance in the Middle Ages.

We will continue to tour the historic centre of Besalú, with its cobblestone streets and perfectly preserved medieval architecture.

During the tour you will enjoy a small tasting of handmade sausages of the Garrotxa, accompanied by the traditional ratafía.

To finish the experience, we will stop at the viewpoint to enjoy the panoramic views of the bridge, before heading to a local winery where you can taste a glass of DO Empordà wine.
