Great day trip from Madrid!

Excellent day trip from Madrid, beautiful historical cities which were very different from Madrid. Our guide, Kahn, gave us all the history and fun stories as well. Everything was very comfortable, and he was super patient with our many bathroom stops. He also took great pictures of us at the sites. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful and historical tour of Salamanca and Avila.

Khan picked us up from our hotel and we immediately felt comfortable with him. He answered all our questions as we traveled to Salamanca (and we ask a lot of questions). He was very knowledgeable and even offered to make additional stops for us to take pictures. We had such a nice day with Khan and would highly recommend this tour and tour guide. Couldn't ask for a nicer tour guide. We will forever remember this day.
