On this walk through the historic center of the town, we'll see the famous Royal Palace of Aranjuez from the outside. What's more, we'll pass by the church of San Antonio, in the central Plaza de Parejas, and visit the gardens of the Island and the Prince, located on the banks of the Tagus River.

On this 11-hour-long excursion, you'll see two of the most popular destinations Spain has to offer. We'll explore the "City of Three Cultures" see the most famous Roman aqueduct in the world and discover why Toledo and Segovia have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
