Description

Imagine arriving in a city where the streets whisper words from the Golden Age, where the walls breathe history and every corner gives you a wink...

It is not a dream: it is Alcalá de Henares, and you are about to discover it as never before, with a guide who not only knows it, but lives it. From the first step you will feel that you are not on just another tour: you are entering a narrative journey, a story that is built as we move through walls, squares, cloisters and alleys. With the right pace and a guide who loves this city, you will discover what books don't tell, what maps don't point out and what photos don't capture: the essence of Alcalá.

Puerta de Madrid and Medieval Walls
Plaza de las Bernardas and the Cathedral-Magistral
Archbishop's Palace and Palace Square
Rectorate of the University and Colegio Mayor de San Ildefonso
Main Street and its Jewish history
Cervantes' Birthplace
And more corners that only the curious eyes will know how to appreciate...

We end in the Plaza de San Diego, the beating heart of the city, where the past and the present come together in front of the imposing facade of the University founded by Cisneros.
