Full description

Enjoy a very entertaining day visiting Ávila and Segovia, two cities rich in history!

The first stop in your tour will be in Ávila, a city that preserves the most ancient and complete fortified complex in Spain (XI century). Its 2500 m wall and its 90 fortified towers surround the old city, which houses a great part of its monumental treasure including many Romanesque style churches, gothic palaces and a fortified cathedral of the XII century.

We will go up to the walls of Ávila, visit the outside of the Basilica of St. Vincent, built outside the walls of the town offers you a notable Gothic architecture. The basilica sits on the site where three Christian martyrs were killed after their refusal to worship pagan gods. Pay attention to history that our guide will tell you!

Then we will visit the outside of the Cathedral of Ávila. You will be in love with the oldest Spanish Gothic Cathedral! It stands on the remains of an original building in the Romanesque style that after adopted the Gothic! 

At the end of the Ávila tour, we will go to Segovia, famous for its well-preserved Roman aqueduct, which is 16 km long, is home to some of the kings of Castile! This city preserves one of the most important medieval group of buildings in Spain.

In Segovia, you'll enjoy a traditional lunch (if you choose this option) or have some time on your own to taste the local food!

After lunch, join the group and meet your guide in front of the Cathedral for an exterior visit and a mix of military and residential architecture. Locals and visitors alike say this castle is so magical that it was a source of inspiration for Walt Disney!

Avila and Segovia tour
This tour was excellent! Our guide was very knowledgable and accommodating. The pace was just right and lunch was great. I will do this tour again with my family.

woth my money
Both cities were really cool and worth a visit. We had a great bus trip. We ordered the tour with a traditional dish which was delicious. The alcazar was the highlight of the tour, because our guide explained a little more. These two cities are worth visiting
Nicholas Pelzer
unforgettable
Excellent activity after a rather chaotic start at the time of getting everyone together, however the activities and the trip were very well planned. The guide managed the group well and combined the humor with his magnificent view of Spanish culture. We also understand why Segovia and Avila are classified as world heritage by UNESCO. I recommend.
Beau Ciantar
quick visit to both cities
The Guide is very attentive and knows everything about cities. Of course it is all too fast to see so many beautiful things. But you can quickly get to know the ramparts (part outside and main entrance), Avila Cathedral, Segovia Aqueduct (quickly) and some other attractions). There was also time for tourists to enter souvenir shops around the city. But ideally one ride at a time.
