Tip-based free walking tours in Valladolid

The two free tours in Valladolid are 1 h 45 min walks with official guides, tip-based and in Spanish: one through monumental Valladolid and another, at dusk, of legends and mysteries. Both start at the Plaza de la Universidad, next to the Cervantes sculpture, and stay outdoors with no tickets to pay.

What you see on each

The monumental tour covers what was the Castilian capital of the Empire: the Cathedral and the Collegiate Church of Santa María la Mayor, the Plaza Mayor, the Vera Cruz and the Royal Sites, with the Royal Palace, San Pablo, the Pimentel Palace and the Colegio de San Gregorio, home of the National Sculpture Museum. It ends at Santa María la Antigua, next to its Romanesque bell tower.

The legends and mysteries tour tells the crimes, ghosts and miracles hidden in the monuments: the Bronze Christ, Zorrilla's House, the Plaza del Viejo Coso and the Devil's Chair, ending at the Plaza Mayor, the setting of the Inquisition's autos de fe.
