Toledo and Segovia full-day tour

Tick off two Unesco World Heritage Sites in one day with this comprehensive guided tour of Toledo and Segovia.

Your tour begins in Toledo, where narrow lanes and cobbled alleyways wind past ancient synagogues and churches. There’s a formidable fortress on top of the hill as well as a huge, ornate gothic cathedral. Your guide will take you on a journey through the historic streets, where you’ll visit attractions including the well-preserved 15th-century Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes and enjoy panoramic views of the Bridge of San Martín with its soaring arches. Don’t miss the chance to pick up some of Toledo’s famously sweet marzipan while you’re there – it’s delicious!

Have a go at counting the arches of Segovia’s incredible Roman Aqueduct. Built around 2,000 years ago to transport water from the Rio Frio river, it’s one of the best-preserved of its kind in the world. The tour passes through the grand Plaza del Azoguejo, where the aqueduct is at its highest, and onwards to Segovia Cathedral, an absolutely enormous Gothic confection and the last to be built in this style in Spain, way back in the mid-16th Century.

Explore the atmospheric streets of the old town and grab some Instagram-ready snaps as you pass through the colorful Canonjías neighborhood en route to what is arguably the tour highlight: the Alcázar of Segovia. Shaped like the bow of a ship, this imposing medieval fortress rises proudly out of a rocky crag near the Guadarrama mountains. If this fairytale castle looks familiar, that’s because the Alcázar was one of a number of European castles that inspired Walt Disney in the creation of his iconic Cinderella Castle logo.
