About This Experience in Madrid

Embark on a full-day small-group tour from Madrid to Segovia and Ávila, two of Spain’s most remarkable UNESCO World Heritage cities. Travel comfortably by private SUV or minivan through the Castilian landscape, discovering a blend of history, architecture, and culture. Start with a guided walk through Segovia, exploring its highlights: the Roman Aqueduct, the Gothic Cathedral, and the Alcázar, a fairytale fortress that inspired Walt Disney. Learn about the city’s Roman roots and medieval splendor, then enjoy free time to taste the famous cochinillo asado or traditional tapas. Continue to Ávila, known as the “City of Stones and Saints,” surrounded by the best-preserved medieval walls in Spain. Walk its cobbled streets, visit its majestic cathedral, and feel the spirit of St. Teresa of Ávila before returning to Madrid after an unforgettable cultural journey.
