Step by Step

Join this exciting day trip from Madrid to discover the cities of Segovia and Avila. You'll start the day by hopping on an air-conditioned bus which will take you to all the places you need to go during the experience.

Once you arrive in Segovia, your tour guide will take you on a guided walking tour of its streets. You'll marvel at its famous Roman aqueduct, an impressive structure dating back to the 1st century AD. You'll visit the Alcazar, an ancient fortified palace that towers over the city and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area. Afterwards, you'll head to Segovia Cathedral, a magnificent Gothic church that houses numerous works of art and historical treasures.

After exploring Segovia, you'll head to Avila, another medieval World Heritage Site. Here, you can admire the impressive city walls, which are largely intact and surround the old town. You will also visit the basilica of San Vicente, a beautiful example of Romanesque architecture.

In addition to the guided tours, where you will learn about the history and culture of these two cities, such as the kings and queens who ruled, or the legends and traditions of Avila, you will also have some free time. So you can move around on your own and go to the places that interest you most.
