Valladolid was the capital of Spain before Madrid ever was. Ferdinand and Isabella married here, Columbus died here, and Cervantes was living here while he finished Don Quixote.
This self-guided audio tour crosses from the Plaza Mayor and the unfinished cathedral to the Colegio de Santa Cruz, the university façade, the Casa de Cervantes, the carved front of San Pablo and the National Sculpture Museum.
Fifteen stops in the historic centre, roughly two hours at your own pace, with narration playing as you walk. Your phone is the guide, so start whenever you like and stop for lunch whenever you want.
