Walk the Thrones: Girona Game of Thrones Walking Tour

Girona's Game of Thrones Tour: Walk where dragons once loomed across sun-warmed stone. Free Tour Tour Joc de Trons guides fans through 2 hours of cinematic stops in Girona, Catalunya, Spain — from the narrow alleys that stood in for Braavos to the broad steps of the Cathedral that doubled as the Great Sept of Baelor. The tour meets at Pl. de la Independència, a central square framed by 19th-century arcades and cafés, and moves along the Passeig Arqueològic, past the Monestir de Sant Pere de Galligants and across the streets that became King’s Landing. In 2015 HBO chose Girona for its mix of preserved medieval fabric and dramatic elevation changes; locals still recall casting calls and film crews rewriting the city for a season. Gran Septe de Baelor, Catedral, Braavos, Oldtown and the Desembarcament del Rei are visited in sequence, each stop keyed to behind-the-scenes anecdotes that explain why a particular stair, archway or façade worked on screen. The Cathedral’s soaring Gothic nave and massive façade provide one of the most photogenic set pieces; the Passeig Arqueològic’s stone walkways and defensive walls offer rooftop-feel perspectives. The Monestir de Sant Pere de Galligants introduces Romanesque stonework and a quieter chapter of Girona’s architectural story. This walking route succeeds because it layers film lore onto authentic history: you’re not on a movie backlot, you’re moving through urban fabric that evolved across centuries. Guides point out how narrow alleys, irregular paving and local stone — the yellow-beige and gray of Girona masonry — created the textures seen on screen. The tour’s two-hour format keeps energy high and makes it an excellent first-day activity for travelers arriving in the nearby city center. Practical notes: wear grippy shoes for cobbles and stairs; bring a charged phone for photos and follow the guide for access details. The experience is family-friendly and low-impact, but remember these are living streets—respect residents and café terraces. For fans, history buffs and photographers alike, Free Tour Tour Joc de Trons links pop-culture spectacle to real-world place, turning iconic frames into routes you can walk, touch and photograph. It’s a compact, urban adventure that reframes Girona as a cinematic stage where stone, light and local stories still hold the scenes together. On busy summer days book early: mornings and late afternoons split crowds and light, and weekday tours are quieter. Guides add color with local anecdotes about medieval guilds and postwar restoration, so bring questions. After the tour wander the Passeig Arqueològic or the Onyar riverbank to line up shots from different angles, then refill at a nearby café to compare the locations to on-screen stills. This rhythm—walk, photograph, linger—keeps visits respectful and beneficial to local shops, and preserves neighborhood character, too.
