We are a young team that left Spain in 2009 and are now based in London to create this wonderful project. At the request of our "walkers," we have expanded our reach to Paris, Dublin, Budapest, Córdoba, Cádiz, Porto, Lisbon, Segovia, Salamanca, Rome, and Athens, showing these cities to thousands of Spanish speakers. We are professional guides and are absolutely passionate about every corner of the cities we explore.

Tour description

Enjoy with us an essential tour of Salamanca to learn all the details of its main corners, such as the iconic Plaza Mayor , its renowned and ancient University or the Casa de las Conchas , while we explore the historic center of the city and learn why the city is known as Little Rome or the Golden City .

We'll delve into the history and unique character of the city with a stroll through its squares and streets. We'll walk through the Plaza de las Agustinas Recoletas and along Calle Compañía , observing how the surrounding monumental complexes attest to the historical significance of these two locations.

What are the differences between the Minor Schools and the Major Schools of the University of Salamanca? We will discover every detail of this almost thousand-year-old institution and understand why the city is famous for its vibrant university atmosphere.

If you can spot the famous frog on the University's facade, we'll continue on to see the majestic Salamanca Cathedral ... or should we say cathedrals? We'll learn about the Old Cathedral and the New Cathedral before ending our visit in the charming Plaza de Anaya .


At the end of the activity , you can enjoy a free and exclusive tasting and special discounts on local gourmet products . A fabulous opportunity to savor Salamanca and take home a delicious souvenir!
