LM Kay Wilson: The Fam Tour of Castilla y León opened up a part of
Spain that I was not aware of! Made up of unspoiled countryside and
breathtaking vistas, castles, grand cathedrals, lakes, mountains and
small towns and villages untouched by time. The Romans certainly left
their mark in the landscape and architecture of the region! The city of
Segovia was a highlight for me with its intact Roman aqueduct forming a
gateway into an incredibly picturesque old town. Segovia Castle inspired
Walt Disney, who was just one of the many Hollywood names to have
visited over the years.
Scout Brittany Petros: Castilla y León's dramatic landscapes, from
rugged mountains to ancient castles, offer a cinematic backdrop for
any story. Segovia specifically feels like a movie set come to life. The
awe-inspiring Roman aqueduct, the dramatic Alcázar Fortress, and the
charming medieval streets all offer endless possibilities for creating truly
stunning visuals. It's a place that transports you to another time and place.
