Most of the route will be along small roads that will allow us to get to know the interior of Castile, small Castilian villages with a lot of charm and two of the most important medieval fortresses of Castile.

Our first stop will be in MEDINA DEL CAMPO, a small city of pre-Roman origin, and one of the most important in Castile in the Middle Ages, it was one of the most important financial centers in Europe at that time. We will walk through its Plaza Mayor, and then take a guided tour of the DE LA MOTA CASTLE (entrance included), a fifteenth-century fortress that had a double mission: the defense of the city, and safeguard the most important archives of the Kingdom of Castile (Note: due to schedule changes in the guided tour of the Castle, sometimes we will not be able to visit it inside, only externally).

We continue our journey through Castilian lands, in the small town of Coca, we visit the COCA CASTLE, considered one of the best examples of Spanish Gothic – Mudejar. We include entrance and guided tour of this impressive castle.
