Guided Tours in Figueres - A Local’s Insight into the City of Lights
Figueres is located near the border with France. It became famous for the surrealist Salvador Dali, who was born and lived here for many years. Here is his theater-museum - the most visited sight of the city. It was designed and opened in 1939 by Dali himself. Accompanied by a guide you can go through the halls with the artist’s works, but the guide is not allowed to explain the significance of the exhibition, as each visitor should see something on your own.
The fact that Figueres and Dali are inseparable is reminiscent of the artist's face in a surreal style on the central street of Rambla.
As part of a guided tour, you will visit the 18th century Sant Ferran Castle and the 14th century Sant Pere Church. Children will be interested in the Toy Museum with 4.5 thousand exhibits belonging to famous people of Spain, including Salvador Dali.

I can't say enough good things about our Figueres excursion with Foxiepass! The guide was exceptional, providing fascinating insights into Dalí's life and art. We had ample time to explore the museum and the town at our own pace. The small group size made it feel personalized and intimate. A must-do for anyone visiting Catalonia!
