Itinerary

Enjoy a very entertaining day visiting Avila and Segovia - two cities rich in history. The first stop on our tour will be in Avila, a city that has preserved the most ancient and complete fortified complex in Spain. Its 8,202-foot wall and its 90 fortified towers surround the old city, which houses many of its monumental treasures including a large number of Romanesque style churches, Gothic palaces and a fortified cathedral of the 12th century. We will visit the Convent and Museum of Teresa de Jesus, Avila Cathedral (the outside), the Plaza Mayor and the Basilica of San Vicente. At the end of the tour, we will go to Segovia - famous for its well-preserved roman aqueduct. Home of some of the kings of Castile, this city features some of the most important medieval buildings in Spain. Due to its elegance, the Cathedral of Segovia is considered to be "The Lady of the Cathedrals," and the Alcazar is the most spectacular castle in the country. We will see the Aqueduct, the Cathedral and the Alcazar. (Since April 2020, we will visit the outside part of the Cathedral).
