Quick answer: A private Girona tour from Barcelona comes in two 10-hour versions for up to 6 guests: Medieval Girona and Dali Museum in Figueres at €825 per group, with the Dalí Theatre-Museum ticket included, or Medieval Girona and Costa Brava at €850 per group, with Pals and Calella de Palafrugell instead. Choose Figueres for art and the coast for villages and sea. Split between 6 guests, that is €137.50 or about €141.67 each.
How do the three private Girona trips compare?
Three private day trips from Barcelona include a guided walk through Girona's old town. All three are priced per group of up to 6 guests, with a vehicle and guide reserved for your party alone, and pick-up and drop-off at your hotel or apartment in Barcelona.
What changes is the second half of the day, the length of the day, and whether an entrance ticket is part of the price. Here they are side by side.
| Private tour | Hours | Price per group | Second stop | Ticket included |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Medieval Girona and Dali Museum in Figueres | 10h | €825 | Figueres, Dalí Theatre-Museum | Dalí Theatre-Museum entrance |
| Medieval Girona and Costa Brava | 10h | €850 | Pals, then Calella de Palafrugell | None (not included unless stated) |
| Montserrat, Girona and Costa Brava Private Tour | 11h | €845 | Montserrat before Girona, Costa Brava coast after | None listed (guided monastery visit included) |
Food and drinks are not included on any of the three, and gratuities are optional. Because the price is per group rather than per head, what each person pays depends on how many of you travel.
For a full group of 6, the Figueres day works out at €137.50 each, the coast day at about €141.67 each and the Montserrat combination at about €140.83 each. The three sit close together, so the real decision is about what you want to see, not about cost.
What you see on the Girona and Dalí Museum day
The Medieval Girona and Dali Museum in Figueres trip is the art day. After pick-up in Barcelona, your guide walks you through Girona's medieval old town and into the Call, the old Jewish Quarter, with its narrow stone lanes and stairways.
From there you continue to Girona Cathedral and the Onyar river, where the coloured houses stand right on the water. This part of the day is on foot, so comfortable shoes matter more than anything else you pack.
The afternoon is in Figueres, Dalí's birthplace, for the Dalí Theatre-Museum, a building full of his paintings, sculptures and theatrical rooms. This is the only one of the three private Girona trips with an entrance ticket in the price, so there is no separate museum ticket to arrange or pay for.
What the €825 per group covers:
- Hotel pick-up and drop-off in Barcelona
- Private vehicle and driver for the full day
- Professional private guide
- Guided walking tour through Girona's medieval old town
- Entrance ticket to the Dalí Theatre-Museum
Not included: food and drinks, and gratuities (optional).
This day suits you if Dalí is part of the reason you came to Catalonia, if you want the second half of the day indoors, or if you travel with teenagers who respond better to surreal art than to another cathedral. For 6 guests it comes to €137.50 each, the lowest per-person figure of the three private Girona trips.
What you see on the Girona and Costa Brava day
Medieval Girona and Costa Brava starts the same way: pick-up at your hotel or apartment in Barcelona, then a guided walking tour of Girona's old town and Jewish Quarter, followed by the cathedral and the Onyar river.
The difference is the afternoon, which swaps the museum for a medieval village and the sea. First comes Pals, a small medieval village of narrow stone streets. Then Calella de Palafrugell, a small seaside village on the Costa Brava with fishing boats on the beach and houses facing the water.
What the €850 per group covers:
- Hotel or apartment pick-up and drop-off in Barcelona
- Private vehicle for the whole group
- Dedicated professional local guide
- Guided walking tour of Girona's old town and Jewish Quarter
- A stop in the medieval village of Pals
Not included: food and drinks, entrance tickets unless stated, and gratuities (optional). No entrance ticket is listed for this route, so if you want to go inside a paid site along the way, plan to pay for it yourself.
This is the better choice if you would rather spend the afternoon outdoors than in a museum, if the sea is part of the appeal of your trip, or if someone in your group has already visited the Dalí museum. At 6 guests it comes to about €141.67 each, a little more than the Figueres day even though no ticket is built in. The afternoon has two stops after Girona instead of one.
Can you add Montserrat to a Girona day?
Yes, with the Montserrat, Girona and Costa Brava Private Tour. It runs 11 hours instead of 10 and costs €845 per group, about €140.83 each for 6 guests. The route goes from Montserrat Monastery to Girona's old town and then to the Costa Brava coastline before the return to Barcelona.
Included: a guided visit to Montserrat Monastery and Basilica, a walking tour of Girona's old town and Jewish Quarter, a private vehicle for the full day, a professional private guide, and pick-up and drop-off at your hotel or apartment in Barcelona. Not included: food and drinks, entrance tickets unless stated, personal expenses and gratuities (optional).
The trade-off is time. Three places in one day means shorter visits at each than on either 10-hour trip. It makes sense if Montserrat and Girona are both on your list and you only have one free day for trips out of Barcelona.
If you have two free days, you will likely enjoy each place more by splitting them: one of the 10-hour Girona days, plus a separate Montserrat trip such as Essential Montserrat: Landscape, History and Spirituality (€835 per group, 5h, entrance to Montserrat Monastery included).
Private per group or shared per person?
If the private price feels high for two people, the same Girona pairings also run as shared day trips with hotel pick-up, priced per person and capped at 8 people. On a shared trip you share the guide and the vehicle with other travellers; on a private one both are reserved for your party.
- Medieval Girona and Dali Museum (shared): €175 per person, 10h, max 8 people
- Costa Brava and Medieval Girona (shared): €145 per person, 10h, max 8 people
- Montserrat, Girona and Costa Brava Small Group Tour with hotel pick-up (shared): €155 per person, 11h, max 8 people
The names are close, so check the price line before you book. The shared Medieval Girona and Dali Museum trip is €175 per person; the private Medieval Girona and Dali Museum in Figueres is €825 per group.
Now compare like with like. With 6 guests, the private Figueres day is €137.50 each against €175 per person on the shared Dalí trip, so the private option is cheaper per head as well as being yours alone. The private coast day, at about €141.67 each, is close to the shared €145 per person. The private Montserrat combination, at about €140.83 each, sits below the shared €155 per person.
With two or three travellers the picture changes. The shared trips cost far less in total, because you pay only for your own places. The private trips earn their price when you want the pace set by your group and the guide's attention on your group alone.
Which Girona day fits your group?
- Choose the Figueres day (€825 per group) if Dalí is on your list, you like having the museum ticket already in the price, or you are 5 or 6 people splitting the cost.
- Choose the coast day (€850 per group) if you prefer villages, sea views and an afternoon outdoors, or someone has already seen the Dalí museum.
- Choose the Montserrat combination (€845 per group, 11h) if you have only one free day and want the monastery and Girona in it.
- Choose a shared trip (€145 to €175 per person) if you are two or three and budget matters more than having the guide to yourselves.
On any of the private trips, the vehicle and guide are yours, so the pace and the time at each stop can flex, though the core route stays close to the one listed on the tour page. If you want longer in Girona's old town or more time by the Onyar river, send that request before you book.
You confirm your pick-up address at booking, and the exact pick-up time is agreed before the day. A few days of notice is usually enough, but popular dates in spring and early autumn fill further out, so book at least a week ahead if the date matters.
Plans change, so it helps to know the terms. You can cancel or move to a new date free of charge if you tell us at least 96 hours before the start time. The full terms are in the cancellation policy.
