Discover a beautiful Spanish city in a more personal way on our Ponferrada Private Tour. You'll explore the charms of El Bierzo's historic capital accompanied by an exclusive guide just for you!
Description
At your chosen time, we'll meet at the entrance ramp to the Templar Castle, next to the Church of San Andrés. The private tour of Ponferrada will begin by exploring the significant sites in the provincial capital of El Bierzo.
The first visit will be to the castle, where we will learn about this extraordinary fortress, once owned by the powerful Order of the Knights Templar. We'll climb to the top of its defensive towers for views of Ponferrada and the surrounding mountains.
Next, we'll stop at the foot of the Moclín Tower before proceeding to the iconic Casa de los Escudos. After discussing its history, we'll visit the Virgen de la Encina Square, the start of the beautiful Reloj Street.
Along this street, we'll pass the Museum of Bierzo, which features an old prison from the 16th century. We will also observe the ancient remains of the wall of Ponferrada to learn about the town's defensive history.
After 2 hours of sightseeing, our private tour of Ponferrada will conclude as we return to the starting point.
