Itinerary
We will go to Segovia, which is in the nearby autonomous community of Castilla y León, for this half-day excursion. We will get the chance to see breathtaking locations like the Cathedral of Segovia, the majestic Alcazar with its pointed turrets, and the Roman aqueduct.
We will leave Madrid in the afternoon and go to Segovia, a tiny city that will take us by surprise as soon as we step off the bus.
The Alcazar of Segovia, one of the most well-known and intact mediaeval castles in the world, will be the starting point of the walking tour. Because the Alcazar's external architecture served as inspiration for several of Walt Disney's films, including Cinderella's Castle and the Queen's Castle in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, you may recognise certain Disney castles.
Following our visit to the Alcazar, we will ascend to the Plaza Mayor, where we will see several impressive landmarks, including the Town Hall, the Juan Bravo Theatre, and the Cathedral of Segovia, the interior of which will be fully escorted. You will have some free time to explore Segovia at your own pace following your tour to the Cathedral.
We will reconvene at the Plaza Mayor at the designated hour. We will explore some of the city's monuments, such the Torreón de Lozoya and the Church of San Martín, which was constructed in 1.117, or the Casa de los Picos, whose façade features 617 granite peaks.
One of Spain's oldest landmarks, the Aqueduct, is where we will conclude the guided trip. It was constructed more than 2,000 years ago and is more over 16 kilometres long. We will learn how it was constructed without the use of cement and the path the water took to get to Segovia during the visit.
Main Attractions:
- A UNESCO World Heritage Site: Admire this extraordinary engineering feat, built nearly 2,000 years ago, with its perfectly preserved arches.
- The “Lady of Cathedrals”: Explore this late Gothic masterpiece, located in the Plaza Mayor.
- A Fairytale Castle: Visit this medieval fortress, rumored to have inspired Disney’s Cinderella Castle.
