I hope you're planning to include Madrid in your trip too if you have enough time. You can get from Segovia to Madrid by bus and it takes about 90 minutes. The train trip from Ávila to Madrid similarly takes 90 minutes.



Another cool walled town - which gets more tourists than Ávila, I imagine - is Toledo. Toledo can be reached with a 35 minute high speed train ride from Madrid (or a one hour ride on the bus). I hope you have a fun vacation!



EDIT: please visit my Segovia and Toledo thread that I just posted to see pictures of those cities I'm excited for you! Segovia is located at a one hour bus ride from Ávila, so you should really try to see both. Here is the link for the bus company that provides transportation between the two cities (the train does not run between them). http://lasepulvedana.es/index.html When you get to the opening page, you can click on the British flag to access the site in English.I hope you're planning to include Madrid in your trip too if you have enough time.
