Castilla y León is one of the oldest regions in Spain. The region has 11 World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

And with my expertise in Castilla y León, I will show you not only the famous spots but also local jewels off-the-beaten-track places. I have lived in several countries, such as Italy, France, Ireland, England… These experiences have allowed me to have a multicultural view.

Overview of your Salamanca tour
Salamanca is a city full of important sights to the history of Spain. It hosts the oldest University in Spain, and the monastery where Christopher Colombus found support to start his voyage. The whole city is constructed with the sandstone of Villamayor, which gives the city a "golden" color. This tour is the perfect introduction to Salamanca. I will give you an in-depth view of how and why Salamanca came to be the center of wisdom in Spain. We will explore the vibrant downtown area at your pace - including the religious heart and the medieval University campus - adjusting our itinerary to your needs and preferences. Take this "journey back in time" and discover the oldest University in Spain, the palaces of noble medieval families, and get to know why Salamanca has two Cathedrals, and a good-luck frog! Discover all the must-see places in Salamanca with me, and enjoy visiting the city with the view and recommendations of a "friend". I can customize this tour according to your needs.
