Hello! My name is David, I have a degree in Tourism and I'm an official tour guide. I'm from Ávila, and being able to explore my city (cathedral, palaces, churches, neighborhoods, and of course, the city walls) with other people and share the history, culture, and legends of Ávila is my hobby. That's why being a guide is my passion, and I thoroughly enjoy every tour. Meeting new people every day and learning from the visitors makes each day a gift. Ávila and I await you with open arms and open walls!

Tour description

Hello! Welcome to Ávila. My name is David, I am an Official Guide and a Tourism Graduate, and I will be your guide through this magnificent city, steeped in history, mystery, and legends that extend to the present day.

I love my city and being a guide is my hobby, so I can't be happier than walking the streets of Ávila with people who are interested.

The tour has a maximum of 15 people; the idea is to explore the city in the most intimate way possible and try to provide the best experience.

I know how important a tour and its guide can be in giving you the best experience of the city, so my goal is to make your visit an unforgettable day talking about history, heritage, legends and of course the gastronomy of Ávila.

We will learn about the different stages of the city from its beginnings to the present day, its towns, its cultures and of course its great figures such as Saint Teresa of Jesus or Adolfo Suarez.

To do this, we will explore the intricate alleyways of the city to learn about its legends, immerse ourselves in its heritage (walls, cathedral, churches, squares...) to learn its history in depth and in a fun way, and have fun making surprises along the way.

ÁVILA AWAITS YOU WITH OPEN ARMS!
