Madrid: Private Tour Cuenca and its Hanging Houses

Madrid: Private Tour Cuenca and its Hanging Houses

Embark on a Private Tour and discover the magic of Cuenca, a World Heritage City that looks like something out of a dream. Its famous "hanging houses" defy gravity, floating above the void as if they were brushstrokes of surrealism on a natural canvas. Cuenca is more than history; it is a corner of wonder where ancient and modern intertwine in a symphony of cobblestone streets and breathtaking panoramas. We will begin our adventure crossing the iconic San Pablo Bridge, from where a unique view of the city unfolds, with its colorful facades that seem to caress the sky. Our tour will take us to the Spanish Abstract Art Museum, housed in one of the emblematic hanging houses, where avant-garde art dialogues with tradition. We will lose ourselves in the enchanted labyrinth of narrow streets and picturesque squares that lead us to the Plaza Mayor and the majestic Gothic Cathedral, with a history that dates back to its origins as a mosque in the 12th century. From there, we will ascend to the Castle Quarter, exploring the vestiges of the Old Fortress and crossing under the imposing Bezudo Arch, as guardians of a medieval past. Every corner of Cuenca is a visual poem, a place where time seems to stop to let you breathe in its beauty. This experience will be unique, adapted to your own pace, free of rush and disconnections, where every step will be an intimate conversation with the city. Live Cuenca with Agiday Travel, in a private tour designed just for you, where history, art and nature intertwine to offer you an unforgettable trip.

very good, the driver very friendly. The walk gives an idea of where the places you can visit in the city are, it says that you can go down and up, but that is not the case.
