Toledo & Segovia (11 Hours)
On this 11-hour-long excursion, you'll see two of the most popular destinations Spain has to offer.

This tour takes us to discover two monument-packed cities: over a 9-hour tour we'll visit Ávilla to admire the oldest walled town in the country and be amazed by the medieval buildings and Roman Aqueduct in Segovia. The recommended itinerary is similar to that of the Avilla and Segovia group tour.
El Escorial & Valley of the Fallen (5 Hours)
We'll surround ourselves with Spanish history over 5 hours visiting two of Madrid's most important monuments. Having seen the El Escorial Royal Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we'll visit the Valley of the Fallen, and the basilica that pays homage to those who died during the Spanish Civil War. The recommended itinerary is the same as the group excursion to El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen. On Mondays, it's not possible to take the tour due to the closure of the monuments.
Full-Day Toledo Tour (7 Hours)
We'll spend the whole day in Toledo, going back to the origins of 'The City of Three Cultures', where once Christians, Muslims and Jews lived together in harmony. The recommended itinerary is similar to that of the group full-day Toledo tour and lasts 7 hours.
Salamanca & Ávila (11 Hours)
On this 11-hour excursion, we'll visit Salamanca, the Spanish renaissance city par excellence, and Ávilla, the largest and best conserved medieval walled city in Spain. The recommended itinerary is the same as that of the group excursion to Salamanca and Ávila.
Segovia & La Granja (9 Hours)
On this trip we'll see some of the unmissable sights in the province of Segovia, discover why La Granja de San Ildefonso is known as the 'Spanish Versailles', and travel back in time to see the Roman and Medieval eras of Segovia. The recommended itinerary is the same as the group Excursion to Segovia and La Granja and lasts 9 hours.
Salamanca (8 Hours)
In this excursion of approximately 8 hours, we'll depart from Madrid to the province of Salamanca. There we'll visit an Iberian ham factory, where we'll learn about the optimal curing time and other key aspects of the production process. The guided tour of the factory will end with a delicious tasting of 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham. The tasting includes a glass of wine from the Sierra de Salamanca and three Iberian elaborations that are sure to make your mouth water.
At the end of the tasting, we'll go to the capital of the province to go on a guided tour of the historic center of Salamanca. This city, one of the 15 Spanish cities declared World Heritage Sites, will captivate you from beginning to end.
Wineries in La Rioja and Ribera del Duero (14 Hours)
On this option, we'll explore the renowned wine regions of La Rioja and Ribera del Duero. At the first stop in Bodegas Portia, we'll learn about the winemaking tradition of the region and gain a deeper insight into the production process, from cultivation to bottling, before enjoying a delicious wine tasting at the iconic winery designed by Norman Foster.
After some free time and some lunch, we'll head over to La Rioja, enjoying the gorgeous scenery en route! At the Marqués de Cáceres winery, which has over 150 years of history, we'll delve into the world of Riojan wines and enjoy another wine tasting, accompanied by some delicious regional appetizers. We'll then return to Madrid, experts in wine!
