“The whole trip was really good and efficient. The meeting point was easy to find. Ramiro was very welcoming and funny along the way to Toledo. In Toledo we split to the English group and our guide was Eros. He was very knowledgable and engaging with the history. He gave us great recommendations for local food to have in our free time. Overall we loved the day and want to visit Toledo again. We did the express 6 hour tour but wish we booked the 9 hour experience tour to spend longer there. Thank you for a great day.”

“What a lovely trip to a beautiful town. Our tour bus was comfortable, clean and on time. Our guides were pleasant and knowledgeable (5 stars for Maria). Money well spent & would recommend to anyone as part of their trip to Madrid! Wear comfy shoes & be prepared to walk through crowds (I went on Sunday and it was crowded). Drink sparingly so you don't need too many loo breaks. Lots of lovely shops, restaurants and historic buildings to see.”

Half-day Toledo from Madrid with a guided walk, city views, and a Damascene workshop, plus time to wander the Jewish Quarter.
“It was a little difficult to understand the guide. He spoke very quickly w a heavy accent. Just sort of left us without suggestions for what to do after he spoke. He told us of the Jews that they were good at Math so they became lenders and charged a high interest. But that is anti semetic. They became lenders because that was the only job they were allowed to do. They were forced into it when they were in the ghetto by the rulers. That should be explained.”

“Need to have more time in Alvia. Have mini water on board sell or include. Or just sell water. Ear plugs and listen box should be done on the bus. We wasted 30 min getting ready to tour testing multiple times. Not organized. Also Patrica (a guest ) was 20 min late first stop and second stop. Had only 15 min in the second city bc of that. Very much tell them to leave them there. So incredibly rude of her. Love the Segovia. Would recommend it for entire day.”

“The main Cathedral was great.Actually all of the churches were great but that is a little church overload. We did get to see the famous Tagus bridge as well as the Alcazar. Weather was terrible most of the day but that happens. Guide was excellent and gave great tips on lunch.”
11-hour guided day trip from Madrid to UNESCO Ávila and Segovia, walk medieval walls, see the Roman aqueduct, optional Alcázar entry.
“Communication to find the meeting point and the bus transportation were great. Guide was accommodating and informative, and it was an easy way to see both Avila and Segovia in a day. The only problem was the timing. We had only 30 minutes of free time to buy tickets to walk the wall at Avila, when the itinerary said we'd have 2 hours. Please adjust the description to reflect that so guests can adjust their expectations. Also, it was hard to hear the guide on the walking tour with a big group of people and the noise of cars and other people around the sites.”
