"Dramatized" Historic Tarragona: More Than Two Thousand Years of Stories
Overview
We’ll continue on to the Amphitheater, where we’ll learn about the entertainment of the Roman people and their gladiator fights.
The next stop will be the circus. We’ll experience a thrilling and unique show.
We’ll visit the Praetorian Tower and learn about its various uses over the past 2,000 years.
The tour will continue to see a section of the Roman and medieval city walls, their construction during the Roman Empire, and their subsequent use.
We’ll head into the Old Town until we reach a Modernist-era building; we’ll explore its architecture and its surprising original use. Can you guess what it was?
We’ll stop in front of the cathedral’s façade to explain its details and say goodbye. We’ll hold a little quiz on everything covered during the tour and see who becomes our champion—who will be a consul of Tarraco in their city.
I’ll be waiting for you.

On arrival
The Balcón del Mediterráneo is a seaside viewpoint located at the end of Rambla Nova Street. You can easily get there on foot since it’s in the city center. And if you’re coming by car, there’s the same underground parking garage on Rambla Nova, just 100 meters away, or blue-zone parking; there’s also another underground parking garage at Plaza de la Font, next to City Hall, about 300 meters away. I’ll be standing next to the telescope at the viewpoint, holding a blue folder.
Things to note
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing, bringing a sun hat and a bottle of water, and arriving 5 to 10 minutes early to check in and organize the tour.
