We leave the boat at 8am for a 2 hour drive to Salamanca.
Salamanca, in northwestern Spain, is the capital of Salamanca province, part of the Castile and León region. With a history dating back to the Celtic era, it’s known for its ornate sandstone architecture and for the Universidad de Salamanca. Founded in the 1100s and a key intellectual center in the 15th-16th centuries, the university continues to add to the city’s vibrancy with its international student population.
We initially walked down a pedestrian street into an impressive big square.
Wondered if there was more
We were then given a guide and yes there is more.
What a spectacular old city.
But after two hours we arrive at our nappy brown boat and easy going cruise director.
We start sailing back towards Porto.
