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, located next to the Church of San Andrés. Here, we'll get our private tour of Ponferrada started to explore the most fascinating places in the provincial capital of El Bierzo.

The first visit will be to the castle, where we will learn about this extraordinary fortress, previously owned by the Order of the Knights Templar. We'll also climb to the top of its defensive towers for views of Ponferrada and surrounding mountains.

Next, we'll stop at the foot of the Moclín Tower before heading to the iconic Casa de los Escudos. After learning about its history, we'll go to the Virgen de la Encina Square, from which the beautiful Reloj Street starts.

In Reloj Street, we'll also see the Museum of Bierzo, which includes an old prison from the 16th century. We will learn about the town's defensive history by observing the ancient remains of the wall of Ponferrada.

After 2 hours of sightseeing, our private tour of Ponferrada will conclude as we return to the starting point.
