Welcome to the Alcalá World Heritage Sightseeing Tour!
This sightseeing tour will give you the perfect introduction to understanding a city with more than 2,000 years of history. We'll discover the ins and outs of the world's first university city designed by Cardinal Cisneros, the coexistence in Alcalá of the “3 Cultures”, and, of course, the birthplace of Miguel de Cervantes, the genius behind Don Quixote.
We'll start at Plaza de las Bernardas, a quiet spot that will allow us to gradually explore the Historic Quarter from the basics to the more complex. We save the highlight, the University, for last… like the climax of a good novel! All spiced up with fun facts, entertaining explanations, and a final game.
