About this experience
A stone frog sits on a skull on the façade of one of Europe's oldest universities, and thousands of tourists squint at it every day convinced it will help them pass their exams. The tradition is completely made up. This self-guided audio walking tour of Salamanca tells you what actually happened, and the real stories are stranger. Walk 20 stops through Spain's Golden City with a narrator who separates legend from history at every turn. You'll hear where Columbus was told his maths was wrong, stand where a philosopher faced down a general during the Civil War, and learn how lectures in these halls gave birth to modern international law. Start whenever you like, pause for coffee or a hornazo, and finish at your own pace. No fixed schedule, no group to keep up with. The app works offline with GPS maps, audio, and photos at every stop. Over 20,000 travelers have used self-guided tours. The tour comes with a full refund guarantee.
