Excellent! - In March 2025 we toured Avila and Salamanca with the guide Ignacio, and the experience was excellent. Ignacio has a thorough knowledge of the history of both cities, which allowed us to have a fascinating insight into their past in a short time. I definitely recommend this experience, especially with Ignacio as a guide.
