I offer very enjoyable tours of Segovia and the surroundings. I'd love to show you my city, Segovia. Just one hour away from Madrid, this is one of the most incredible World Heritage Sites in Spain. Visit with me the best preserved Roman Aqueduct in the world, our Alcázar (the fairy tale type castle) and many, many other amazing places. Hi, I am Leticia, a full time professional tourist guide from Segovia. I've been guiding in this city and it's surroundings for more than ten years. After I finished College I started working in the tourism industry and soon I decided I wanted to become a profesional guide. That was my vocation. So I worked hard to pass the exams of my region, Castilla y León. This accreditation gave me the opportunity to start working in something I really, really love. I feel very lucky to live in such a picturesque place and be able to show the heritage, the history, our customs and traditions to people from all over the world. For me, every tour is as important as the previous one and I work every day with the same illusion as the first day. I like delivering funny and informative tours, and something I love about my job, among many other things, is that apart from explaining the people what I know, I also learn curious things from my clients and from their own traditions. You never stop learning… Being a local guide you have to adapt your tours to all kind of travelers. Whatever your interests and situation may be, whether if you are traveling alone, or you are a family, a group of friends, history lovers, food and wine lovers, a very active traveler, a photographer or ANY OTHER interest or situation I will make your visit worthwhile. Nothing like a real expert local to guide you and know where to stop and what to do in any case. Look at my proposed itineraries and if you are interested in something different I can always customize it for you. Waiting to meet you. Official guide license number 0736 accredited by my Community Castilla y León. I am member of the WFTGA (World Federation of Tourist Guides Association). I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle / public transport or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. No more restrictions.

Overview of your Segovia tour

Visit with me two of the most beautiful and picturesque medieval cities in Spain, both protected by UNESCO. Segovia, known as the "Light of Castilla"; Avila, city of "Cantos y Santos" ("Stones and Saints"). I love to deliver this tour because you can get a global idea of the history of this part of Spain, apart from learning about our culture and customs. We start the visit in Segovia, which is my hometown. In addition to visiting the main monuments of the city, we will end the tour of this city with a spectacular panoramic view of the castle that was the inspiration for Walt Disney's Snow White. Once in Avila, we will walk next to one of the best preserved medieval walls in Europe. Strolling through its cobbled streets we will remember the extraordinary life of Saint Teresa of Jesus, a reforming nun and doctor of the universal church.
