Tour description

The tour is an experience to have fun while you discover and get to know Ávila as a unique city. We visit its most incredible places, telling secrets and seeing unknown details that make you touch History with your hands and feel art, history and culture in a different way. We will begin our visit next to the main attraction of the city: the wall. From there we will take a trip back in time passing by the cathedral, the Plaza del Mercado Grande and the Plaza del Mercado Chico, the Basilica of San Vicente, the Paseo del Rastro, as well as convents, churches, palaces and alleys that bring us closer to medieval legends and stories first hand. We end the tour at the Puerta del Carmen, with one of the most incredible panoramic views of the city. What do you think of the plan?
