A day of Roman ruins, fresh fish and beautiful beaches

WITH
Barbara's TEAM | about the guide

Barcelona is a fascinating city to explore, but there is a lot more to see in Catalonia than Gaudi and Las Ramblas. This tour offers you an unbeatable combination of ancient history, delicious cuisine and stunning views in the city of Tarragona and the small fishing village of L'Ametlla de Mar on the Costa Daurada. Prepare to travel back in time to an era when gladiators battled each other to the death in the Roman amphitheater of Tarragona. During your two-hour walking tour, you will stand on the very spot where chariots raced, walk across the magnificent Roman aqueduct, and stroll around the old quarter with its stunning cathedral as you discover some of the most amazing architectural wonders of Catalonia. The second part of the tour will take you to L'Ametlla de Mar, a traditional Catalan village where fishing continues to be one of the main activities with the largest fleet of tuna fishing boats in Catalonia. After a leisurely lunch, you will discover the beautiful beaches and bays. L’Ametlla de Mar is also known as La Cala ("the bay" or "the beach") because of the multitude of picturesque bays surrounding the village. This is an ideal spot for eating, hiking and enjoying watersports.

I was born and have always lived in Matara, a small city on the north coast of Barcelona. Although I trained as an industrial design engineer, in recent years I have slowly moved into tourism. This change has been influenced by traveling, which is important part of who I am. After completing an around the world trip, I wanted to share hospitality that I enjoyed with others, as well as giving travelers more insight into local Catalan life, so that they can live authentic experiences. I'm a huge fan of Catalan culture and I work on different projects with some of its cultural institutions. My tours focus on the history and traditions of my region through the eyes of a local inhabitant. I am always busy thinking about my next project and how to improve the things that surround us. As well as travel, I also like hiking and swimming in the sea after sunrise. I enjoy teaching whether it is math or languages, for kids or elderly people. I love culture and understanding the history and reasons behind it. I'm currently learning Chinese! Why do I give tours? Because I like sharing my knowledge and culture through real situations and activities. I believe that culture should be lived, rather than just visited.
