Description
Segovia is not just the aqueduct and the picture-postcard photo. This city was built on a hill between two rivers, designed to withstand sieges and project power over all of Castile. The result is a city that reads as a fortress, not a backdrop — and that goes unnoticed if you don't know what you're looking at.
The problem is that most visitors arrive by coach with fifty strangers, take a photo of the aqueduct, eat suckling pig in a hurry, and return to Madrid without understanding why this city exists right here. We do something different.
We pick up travelers in Madrid in our van (maximum 8 people) and go to discover the city. First, the Roman Aqueduct, standing for almost 2,000 years without a drop of mortar; the Jewish Quarter, with its own history of coexistence and expulsion, different from that of Toledo but just as real; the Cathedral, the last Gothic cathedral built in Spain, known as the 'Lady of the Cathedrals'; and the Alcázar, where Isabella the Catholic was proclaimed Queen of Castile — it's not just a fairytale castle.
We finish at the Mirador de la Pradera de San Marcos, the vantage point from which you can see the Alcázar perched on the rock, with the Sierra de Guadarrama behind it.
You set the pace. If you want to stay longer somewhere, we'll stay. If there's something specific you want to learn about Segovia, let us know before departure and we'll include it.
