The journey was a smooth ride. Our guide was very informative and switched easily between Spanish and English, which we appreciated. He was attentive and patient. Our meal that was provided was excellent. We had a very enjoyable day visiting Avila and Segovia and having the opportunity to do the town walks and learn about the history of the places.

Our tour guide was grear, again it is not easy to tell histories and stories in two languages back to back and to a group of more 40 people. She was well versed in his history and gave some good perspective. She certainly worked hard and trip although short but under the circumstance well planned. Thank you.

I have taken this tour with a different company, and I liked their trip better. Your trip allowed up to climb the walls at Ávila. That was nice. However, we were simply told to go to St. Teresa's house - no tour. We were not toured through the Cathedral of Segovia. Our tour of the Alcázar of Segovia seemed very rushed.

Estuvo muy bien. Seria importante que en Segovia se pudiese dejar un poco más de tiempo a los excursionistas para conocer la ciudad. Igualmente seria importante que al regreso de Segovia, luego de mas de dos horas del almuerzo se tuviese acceso a un baño. Translate this opinion into English.

It was great. It would be important if Segovia could allow hikers a little more time to get to know the city. It would also be important that upon returning from Segovia, after more than two hours of lunch, there was access to a bathroom. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tour interesante pero muy apresurado. La guía no habla bien el inglés y su acento es casi incomprensible; tampoco domina varios detalles/anécdotas históricos. Almuerzo delicioso en Segovia. Bus moderno, cómodo, limpio. Hay que mejorar el inicio del tour cuando los participantes deben caminar varias cuadras al aparcamiento. Muy confuso, sin diección adecuada. Varios de nosotros asi nos perdimos y apenas encontramos el bus.

Interesting but very rushed tour. The guide does not speak English well and his accent is almost incomprehensible; nor does he master several historical details/anecdotes. Delicious lunch in Segovia. Modern, comfortable, clean bus. The start of the tour needs to be improved when participants must walk several blocks to the parking lot. Very confusing, without proper direction. Several of us got lost and barely found the bus.

Unfortunately it was difficult to understand the English translation due to the strong Spanish accent of the speaker We were not well informed related to the visit to acquedotto romano We discovered only at the med if the visit that we were forced to skip the visit I do suggest to provide tips related to Acquedotto visit during the lunch time

Muy bien. Hemos visto lo + relevante de ambas ciudades. He apreciado el trabajo muy profesional de Nacho, acompañado de la simpática Marta. Lamento no haber tenido + tiempo en las murallas de Avila así como en Segovia después de comer. Comida excelente. Translate this opinion into English.

Very good. We have seen what is most relevant about both cities. I have appreciated the very professional work of Nacho, accompanied by the friendly Marta. I regret not having had more time on the walls of Avila as well as in Segovia after lunch. Excellent food. Opinion translated. Show original.

Hemos hecho la excursión con la guía María y el conductor Franklin. Los dos han sido muy profesionales. María ha sido muy amable, nos ha explicado cada uno de los monumentos y ciudades estupendamente, y ha respondido a todas nuestras dudas. Sin embargo, hemos tenido poco tiempo para ver las ciudades (la muralla de Ávila, y el alcazar y el acueducto de Segovia). Estaría bien poder alargar un poco la excursion y tener un poco mas de tiempo libre para poder disfrutar más del tour.

We have done the excursion with the guide María and the driver Franklin. They have both been very professional. María has been very kind, she has explained each of the monuments and cities to us wonderfully, and she has answered all our questions. However, we have had little time to see the cities (the wall of Ávila, and the fortress and aqueduct of Segovia). It would be nice to be able to extend the excursion a little and have a little more free time to enjoy the tour more.

Muy bien la excursión a Ávila y Segovia, nos recogieron puntual , la guía muy buena, explicó todo muy bien tanto en español como en inglés, el autobús super limpio , el conductor muy simpático, hace unos diez años visite Segovia y Ávila, pero por nuestra cuenta, y la verdad que si vas con un guía que te lo explique todo, se vive de otra manera y gusta más, el Alcázar de Segovia no lo había visto y me pareció precioso ,parece un castillo de Disney, muy bonito . Translate this opinion into English.

The excursion to Ávila and Segovia was very good, they picked us up on time, the guide was very good, he explained everything very well both in Spanish and English, the bus was super clean, the driver was very friendly, I visited Segovia and Ávila about ten years ago, but for our account, and the truth is that if you go with a guide who explains everything to you, you live differently and enjoy it more, I had not seen the Alcázar of Segovia and I thought it was beautiful, it looks like a Disney castle, very beautiful.

La Actividad fue muy buena, el guía no estaba en sus mejores días. Parecía estar cansado y de mal humor. Es cierto que hubo un retraso inesperado, que tal vez lo condicionó. Por otro lado la atención en el restaurante fue pésima. Los mozos casi llegaban al maltrato, con desconocimiento en preguntas básicas como ser; cuál vino tiene estacionamiento en barrica? Rta: Pues aquí todos los vinos son iguales, no sabemos de vino, sabemos de comida. Patético por ser un restaurante de una ciudad icono

The activity was very good, the guide was not at his best. He seemed to be tired and in a bad mood. It is true that there was an unexpected delay, which perhaps conditioned it. On the other hand, the service in the restaurant was terrible. The waiters almost reached the point of mistreatment, with ignorance of basic questions such as; Which wine has barrel storage? Rta: Well here all the wines are the same, we don't know about wine, we know about food. Pathetic for being a restaurant in an iconic city

A excursão foi incrível, dois destinos que valem muito a pena conhecer… Ônibus confortável, atendimento impecável do receptivo… A guia muito boa, tem muito conhecimento sobre os lugares. A visita é super corrida, não recomendo para quem tem dificuldade de locomoção! Normal para se cumprir os horários

Outstanding tour. I had been to Avila and Segovia in 2011 on my own but this time the tour and our guide Jose Luis made it excellent. Left early, went to several sights in Avila, including the walls, churches and palaces. Then Segovia, saw the aqueduct, had a great local lunch, then a washing hour and the Alcázar. José Luis was very knowledgeable about history, art and culture and was a great bilingual quise. Do have the full lunch, it’s worth it.

Las visitas excelentes, lo mismo que el conductor. Pero, a Marta, la guía, le faltaban ganas para hacer su trabajo. Especialmente la parte de Ávila, en Segovia, estuvo mejor. Ella bajó de la muralla de Ávila y esperó en el bus. Varios cuando bajamos, no sabíamos dónde estaban aparcados.

The visits were excellent, as was the driver. But Marta, the guide, lacked the desire to do her job. Especially the part of Ávila, in Segovia, was better. She came down from the wall of Ávila and waited on the bus. Several when we got off, we didn't know where they were parked.

Jose Luis was a great guide. Since we didn’t have the full lunch we went to the cathedral and toured the inside per Jose’s recommendations. We are so glad we had the opportunity to see it!! Jose Luis gave a great and informative tour, our family of five enjoyed it.

Il tour è stato bello, la guida Jorge preparata ci ha portato prima ad Avila e poi a Segovia, spiegandoci le maggiori attrazioni dei due paesi. L'unica pecca che posso trovare è che avrei preferito fare una camminata più lunga sulle mura di Avila, davvero spettacolari. Grazie anche all'autista che ci ha portato nei vari luoghi.

O passeio foi muito proveitoso. A empresa e o guia foram bem pontuais. Isso faz com que alguns momentos sejam um pouco corridos, mas faz parte neste tipo de atividade. O que mais me incomodou foi o fato de o guia ter que explicar tudo e inglês e espanhol, o que fazia com que falasse rápido. Acredito que para quem compreendia apenas um dos idiomas, pode ter sido difícil acompanhar as informações. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was very useful. The company and the guide were very punctual. This makes some moments a little hectic, but that's part of this type of activity. What bothered me most was the fact that the guide had to explain everything in English and Spanish, which made him speak quickly. I believe that for those who only understood one of the languages, it may have been difficult to follow the information. Opinion translated. Show original.

Jorge nuestro guía fue excelente en el día de hoy. Dijo todo en ambos idiomas (español e inglés) se sabe de antemano que íbamos Algo rapidito ya que se va a dos lugares en un día , pero si sigues las instrucciones del guía te da tiempo para todo. La comida estuvo rica en el restaurante Translate this opinion into English.

Jorge our guide was excellent today. He said everything in both languages (Spanish and English). We knew in advance that we were going. It was a bit quick since we went to two places in one day, but if you follow the guide's instructions it gives you time for everything. The food was delicious in the restaurant. Opinion translated.

Realmente esperaba más de esta actividad. Visita a galope, sin tiempo para explicar con detalle la cuidad ni para comprar un suvenir o echar unas fotos por miedo a descolgarse del grupo. La guía fue bastante borde y poco cercana. En definitiva, no fue cómodo realizar este tour.

I really expected more from this activity. Visit at a gallop, without time to explain the city in detail or to buy a souvenir or take some photos for fear of falling out of the group. The guide was quite blunt and not very close. In short, it was not comfortable to take this tour.

Estuvo super bien. Florencia, nuestra guía muy buena Creo que el paseo en Segovia fue muy apresurado, apenas tuvimos tiempo de ver el acueducto y hacer algunas fotos, creo que podrían añadirle una hora de tiempo libre para que todos podamos sacernos fotos y disfrutar un poco más de la ciudad. La comida en Segovia fue extraordinaria (menú) Translate this opinion into English.

It was super good. Florencia, our very good guide I think the tour in Segovia was very rushed, we barely had time to see the aqueduct and take some photos, I think they could add an hour of free time so that we can all take photos and enjoy the city a little more city.

La explicación del guía estuvo bien, mi única recomendación es que no dejen sus cosas en el bus; el chofer cambio de bus y al regresar por nosotros, resulta que uno de los recuerditos que habíamos comprado estaba quebrado aún y cuando ellos te dicen que pueden dejar cosas en el camión,, si tiene cosas frágiles mejor llévenselas con ustedes. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide's explanation was good, my only recommendation is that you do not leave your things on the bus; The driver changed buses and when he returned for us, it turned out that one of the souvenirs we had bought was still broken and when they tell you that you can leave things in the truck, if you have fragile things, it is better to take them with you.
