Escorted tour operator Newmarket Holidays has unveiled a new eight-day tour of Madrid, Toledo and Salamanca in the heart of Spain.
Highlights include guided city tours of Madrid, ancient Toledo – known as the city of three cultures – and historic Salamanca, famed for its golden sandstone architecture.
There are also visits to the lesser-known cities of Segovia and Avila, both with a Roman influence, plus entry to the El Escorial Monastery, a symbol of the Spanish Golden Age and former home to the medieval kings of Spain.
Furthermore, the tour visits the city of Alcalá de Henares, with guests staying in a 17th-century parador ahead of their return transfer to Madrid airport.
Hayley Morris, head of trade sales and partnerships, said: “Given the success of our existing Spain and Portugal tours, it was an obvious next step to develop an exciting itinerary that takes us to central Spain for the first time.
“This excellent tour offers a well-balanced mix of guided sightseeing and free time that gives travel agents a fantastic opportunity to sell a well-rounded, culturally rich tour with broad appeal.”
Madrid, Toledo & Salamanca has three departures from September to October, departing Edinburgh, Gatwick, Stansted and Manchester.
Prices start from £1,530 and include hotels, seven breakfasts, one dinner, tours and transfers.
