Tarragona and Sitges
Fantastic!!! Tour guide was Rodriguez, he was amazing. Obviously loved what he does and the history of Catalonia. Also gave us the freedom to explore on our own. Very comfortable vehicle. Probably the best tour I've been on.

FAQs about Tarragona Tours
What is the best time of year to visit Tarragona for warm weather and fewer crowds?
Visit Tarragona between May and June or September and early October. These months offer warm Mediterranean weather (20-26°C), ideal for beaches and sightseeing, while avoiding peak summer crowds. July and August are hot and busy. The rainy season typically occurs in September-October, but rainfall is brief and rarely disrupts travel plans.
How do I get from Reus Airport (REU) to central Tarragona?
Take the Lleida-Reus Airport shuttle bus to Reus, then connect via regional train (FGC or Renfe) to Tarragona station (30 mins, hourly). Taxis from Reus Airport cost ~€35. Alternatively, pre-book a transfer service for direct drop-off. Public transit is economical (~€8 total); taxis are faster but costlier. Check schedules in advance as service slows on weekends.
Is there a city pass for public transport and attractions in Tarragona?
Tarragona does not have an official city pass. However, the T-16 card (valid 16 trips) from FGC covers trains within the province and is useful for regional travel. For attractions, consider combined tickets at the Tarragona Tourism Office - e.g., Roman Amphitheatre + City Walls. Free entry is offered on the first Sunday of the month for EU residents.
What are the must-see Roman sites in Tarragona and are they accessible for visitors with mobility issues?
Key Roman sites include the Amphitheatre, Roman Circus, and Provincial Forum. The city walls and Museum of History have partial accessibility. The Amphitheatre has gravel paths and elevation changes, limiting wheelchair access. The Balcó del Mediterrani offers easy access with panoramic views. Contact Tarragona’s tourism office in advance for accessibility advice and guided itineraries.
