Guided tours in Laguardia, guided tour of Laguardia and its subway caves.

 

Guided tours of Laguardia are one of the best ways to get to know this medieval walled town. Undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful urban centers of Euskadi and Europe. But it is also one of the places with the largest number of subway caves. For this reason, we would like to present you a very special guided tour. A tour, in which in addition to visiting some of the most emblematic places of the Very Noble, Loyal and Crowned Villa of Laguardia, we will also go down to the subsoil to know a small cave. These subway spaces were originally used as a shelter, but over time they became some of the most emblematic subway cellars of Rioja Alavesa. What was once one of the most important defensive watchtowers of the Kingdom of Navarra is today the capital of wine and food tourism. Would you like to take a guided tour in Laguardia with us?

Guided tour of Laguardia and subway cave.

Laguardia was founded in the tenth century as a defense of the Kingdom of Navarra. Since then, this urban center has maintained much of its medieval layout. Examples of this are the church of San Juan Bautista, the church of Santa Maria or the walls. Architectural elements that make us travel back in time. But little is said about the network of tunnels that exists under the town. What today are some of the most striking cellars and cellars of Rioja Alavesa, were in the Middle Ages, the refuge of the inhabitants of Laguardia. Today there are more than 300 active caves. Would you like to enter one of these caves?
