Join us for a day of culture and fun in the golden cities of Salamanca & Ávila! Ávila has been a popular destination and World Heritage site since 1985. With its iconic orange granite walls still encompassing and protecting the city since its construction in the medieval era. Salamanca is home to one of the oldest universities in the world and was once the center of education in Spain’s early history. The university and its cathedral are made from the famous golden sandstone that has generously gifted the city its nickname of “the golden city”.
