In the morning, we will depart from the Julià Travel office, direction to Segovia. We will park very close to the Aqueduct, which will be the first monument we will find in the city. Formed by 167 arches, it is considered one of the best preserved in the world.
We will have the opportunity to take a walking tour of the city, which will take us first of all to the Plaza Mayor. There are several monuments in this place, such as the Town Hall of Segovia or the Juan Bravo Theatre, although the main protagonist is the Cathedral. We will enter inside the Cathedral, where we will have a complete guided tour.
At the end of the visit inside the Cathedral, we will have a short free time. The next stop will be the Alcázar, one of the best preserved and most famous medieval castles in the world. It is even said to have inspired Walt Disney for some of his films, such as Cinderella's Castle or the Queen's Castle in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
After visiting the Alcázar, it will be time to return to Madrid, where we will have approximately one hour for lunch.
In the afternoon, we will leave Madrid to go to the city of the three cultures, Toledo. We will walk through the streets of a city that has been declared a World Heritage Site since 1986. During our visit we will have the opportunity to walk through the cloisters of the courtyard and the royal coats of arms in the Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes. We will discover the Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca which, although originally a synagogue, 211 years after its construction was expropriated and converted into a church.
We can admire the world-famous painting by El Greco, The Burial of the Count of Orgaz, which can be found in the Church of Santo Tomé. Did you know that El Greco himself lived in this wonderful city?
After visiting these three monuments, we will have a short free time in the city, which you can use for shopping or having a coffee. After this time, it will be time to return to Madrid.
