The first stop on our two-day journey will be Zaragoza, the historic capital of the Aragon region.
For centuries, Zaragoza played an important role in the history of the Spanish Crown, producing generations of influential noble families and leaving a remarkable cultural legacy. It is also closely associated with one of Spain's greatest artists, Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes, who was born and raised in the region.
Among the city's most important landmarks are the magnificent Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar (Basílica de Nuestra Señora del Pilar), home to the revered Holy Pillar, the monumental Stone Bridge (Puente de Piedra) spanning the River Ebro, and many other historic sites.
You will enjoy 1 hour of guided sightseeing in the historic centre, followed by 1.5 hours of free time to explore Zaragoza at your own pace.
Afterwards, we will continue our journey to Madrid.
