Overview
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 a 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.
You will know:
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.
Birthplace of Cervantes.
And more corners that only the curious eyes will know how to appreciate.
We finish in the Plaza de Cervantes, the beating heart of the city, where the past and the present go hand in hand.
Explore, feel, and discover.
Live history with us.
