Spain
This ancient town’s native sons conquered the New World, and enriched their home with their newfound wealth.
Settled since prehistoric times, the town fell during the Muslim invasion in the 8th century and remained in their control for centuries. A walk around the castle perimeter, and it’s easy to see why Christian forces considered it a miracle they retook the town in 1232. The town’s heyday came in the 16th century, when many of the town’s young men set off to the New World in search of wealth. Perhaps most famous was Francisco Pizarro, who launched the capture of the Inca Empire and founded the city of Lima. When the conquistadors returned home, they reinvested in the city, building up the Plaza Mayor, with its tiered town hall, stately San Martin church, 12th-century Casa de los Cardenas, Palacio de la Conquista, and an imposing statue of Pizarro.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
