Free Tour Essential Mérida

Haven't you visited Mérida yet? Join our free tour and follow the footsteps of the past that turned this important city into the capital of Extremadura. Can you imagine the great splendor experienced by Augusta Emerita, the capital of Roman Lusitania? Centuries and centuries of events await to be unveiled through impressive temples and stone monuments that tell stories of distant times. Did you know that Mérida was the origin of the famous Vía de la Plata, which connected the west of Hispania from south to north? Thanks to the valuable remains that we can still appreciate today, the city's archaeological ensemble was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

We invite you to explore Mérida, the heart of Extremadura. In the center of the region and on the banks of two watercourses (the Guadiana River and the Albarregas stream), this ancient city has witnessed significant events over the centuries and has enjoyed periods of great wealth.
