Toledo and Segovia from Madrid Full Day Tour

About this experience

This expertly managed full-day excursion from Madrid visits two of Spain's most historically significant and visually extraordinary medieval cities — Toledo and Segovia — combining the multicultural imperial heritage of the former Castilian capital with the Roman engineering marvel and fairy-tale castle architecture of one of Old Castile's most beloved destinations. Toledo's UNESCO World Heritage old city rises dramatically above a bend in the Tagus River in a dense and atmospheric layering of Gothic, Moorish, Jewish, and Renaissance architecture that reflects its extraordinary history as a city where Christian, Muslim, and Jewish cultures coexisted and created together during the golden centuries of the medieval period.

Segovia provides the perfect complement to Toledo's medieval urban richness — its magnificent Roman aqueduct, built in the first or second century AD and still standing in remarkable completeness across the city's historic centre without a drop of mortar binding its 20,000 granite blocks, representing one of the most astonishing feats of ancient engineering surviving anywhere in Europe. The Alcázar de Segovia — its distinctive prow-shaped silhouette and fairy-tale turrets rising above the confluence of two rivers — provides the day's most romantically cinematic architectural encounter before the return journey to Madrid.
