We are a young team that left Spain in 2009 and we are in London to create this beautiful project. At the request of our "walkers" we grew up in Paris, Dublin, Budapest, Cordoba, Cadiz, Porto, Lisbon, Segovia, Salamanca, Rome and Athens teaching these cities to thousands of Spanish speakers. We are professional guides and we are madly in love with every corner of the cities we teach.

Tour description

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

We will delve into the history and peculiarities of the city with a unique walk through its squares and streets. We will walk through the Plaza de las Agustinas Recoletas or the Calle Compañía, and observe how the monumental ensembles in its surroundings certify that we are in two locations of great relevance in the past.

What are the differences between the Escuelas Menores and the Escuelas Mayores of the University of Salamanca? We will discover every detail of this almost millennial institution and understand why the city is famous for its vibrant university atmosphere.

If you are able to locate the famous frog on the University facade, we will continue to observe the majestic Cathedral of Salamanca... or should we say cathedrals? We will learn the details of the Old Cathedral and the New Cathedral before ending our visit in the cozy Plaza de Anaya.
