What you can expect

Visit the historic Spanish cities of Salamanca and Ávila on a guided tour that reveals the legends of these magnificent locales. In Salamanca, you can explore the impressive Plaza Mayor and the enormous New Cathedral, while in Ávila you can wander down the charming avenues of this walled city.

Depart from Madrid and head to Salamanca, where your tour starts in the centre of the city as you listen to your guide tell stories about the past. Make your way to the Plaza Mayor, which is a large public square characterised by its impressive baroque buildings that line all sides. This popular gathering area boasts many restaurants, ice cream parlours, shops, and jewellery stores to check out. Next, head to the New Cathedral, a beautiful church that masterfully combines Gothic and Baroque architecture. This gorgeous cathedral dominates the Salamanca skyline.

After spending a few hours walking around Salamanca, head to Ávila, where you can explore the ramparts of this medieval walled city. Learn about the history of this unique city as you stroll down ancient alleys and pass by stunning Romanesque churches like the Cathedral of Ávila and the Basílica de San Vicente. Return to your coach and head back to Madrid, enjoying views of the countryside along the route.
