Amazing experience! Our guide Elena is the best! Always wilking to help and with a permanent smile that make everybody feel great! Thank you Elena
I feel the tour was well organized. Yes, not enough time to walk around in Toledo and maybe in Segovia. But you should go there on your own if you want more time to explore. I feel it was good value for money and time to get a feel of old cities outside of Madrid. I recommend it !
Very nice experience, the timing was very punctual and the places were beautiful to see with impressive architecture and history
Wonderful guide! Helped with my wheelchair and guiding us through all the accessible areas. Very patient. Extremely knowledgeable!
Our day trip from Madrid covered Segovia and Toledo. The whole itinerary was well organized and timed and the transportation without a hitch. We enjoyed the guided tours of the cities and sights like the cathedral. We highly recommend this tour!
Overall quick overview of two great towns. Guide was very informative. Only negative was the restaurant in Segovia recommended by the guide. It was definitely a tourist trap and our mistake was that we chose to go to it rather than any of the others in town
The tour is well-organized. The itinerary has a good balance of organized part and individual free time. Our tour guide Deyvis Calderon is very knowledgeable and kind. He gave very clear instructions and very thoughtful for all the people in his group. Best experience! Highly recommend!
We got an uber to get to the meeting location as it was far from the center of Madrid and got there just in time. We paid more to see the Toledo Cathedral. Be aware if you chose this it will cut into your free time to wander the city. The tour of Toledo and Segovia was very informative. There were some issues with our ear buds connecting to English. In Segovia, we went with the tour guides restaurant suggestion. Food was good and portions were large, but our time to eat was very limited. We were crammimg food down just to be able to catch up to tourguide. I suggest don't get the meal of the day menu or if you do, each serving is plenty for 2-3 people to share. We asked the waitress of the portion sizes and she said it was just enough for one person which was very deceiving. Don't feel pressured to each get a meal. Order instead a la carte appetizers and share. We had to take our food home and the restaurant charged us extra to do so. Not happy about that. Both cities really need their own day of touring if you are interested in seeing the cities in a less hurried pace. My elderly mother was with us and it was a lot of walking and steps as one of the escalators in Toledo was not working. We were always trying to catch up for fear of being stranded by the tour as it happened to one person traveling solo on the morning tour of Toledo. My mom was exhausted from the tour. The tour guide was nice, friendly and knowledgeable providing some flexibility with wait times, but she had a timeframe she needed to adhere.
This tour was amazing! We were able to see so many sights ourvtiur guide, Davyson was very knowledgable. He spoke Englush and Spanish with ease. He was very personable and made the tour well worth our time.. We take home memories to last a lifetime of our tour.
A absolutely wonderful experience for an adventure out of the city into the old town with so much history! Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the bus was very comfortable.
