TRIPADVISOR "2022 TRAVELERS CHOICE" AWARD FOR CONSISTENT EXCELLENT SERVICE.


Cradle of the greatest figure in Spanish literature, Miguel de Cervantes, the monumental town of Alcalá de Henares has held the title of World Heritage City by UNESCO since December 2, 1998, being among the cities with the largest number of assets of cultural interest throughout Spain .
Despite this and in a very unfair way, it remains a great unknown for many of the visitors who have come to Madrid and who want to know their surroundings as well as the capital. Our tour, which lasts approximately 1.5 hours, proposes a journey through time through its medieval layout, Roman remains, baroque palaces and churches and its prestigious university, founded more than five centuries ago, so that in your notebook trip from Alcalá de Henares becomes an essential.

Cervantes Square

Me ha gustado mucho tener a Trini como guía de Alcalá de Henares. Mas que el contenido (obviamente no he podido entender todo por ser extranjera), lo que me gustó más era la pasión que ha mostrado ella con su trabajo. 🥰
