I toured many of the University of Salamanca locations with Alexia and she was so amazing. There was so much to see and as a prior student, Alexia was very knowledgeable of both the history of the city and the history of the university which dates back to the 1200s. This tour is a must for anyone who wants way more than the standard walking tours offer.

Alexia is amazing. We were fortunate to be the only two people that morning, so we were able to ask so many more questions than we had originally anticipated. Alexia is highly knowledgeable and incredibly friendly which made for a intellectually fun and engaging tour. Brava! I highly recommend.
