I would not do this tour again. I’m rating it a 3 because our tour guide was so nice, informative, and amazing. However, the company’s handling of this tour was not good. We had an afternoon tour at 3pm and we were to merge with another tour that was coming from Toledo. The tour office refused to let us use the bathroom when we arrived to the offices 15 minutes early for that exact purpose. They had no solution and we had to run to a bathroom somewhere else and then run to get our seats on our hour-long bus ride. They rushed us on the bus and then made us wait 30 extra minutes because the other bus was running late. This resulted in a tour marathon, where we barely had time to use the bathroom and had no free time as opposed to having 30 minutes of free time as the tour indicated. Only good thing about this tour was our tour guide.

Well organized, informative and fun! This was not something we would have done on our own, so the group tour was the way to go. Beautiful city, learned a lot and had time to sample local goodies. Worth it for sure!

Seeing the city, the Roman Aqueduct, the Cathedral. I think a longer and more detailed visit would have been better, if time had allowed. I also would have liked more information about the countryside between Madrid and Segovia.

Segovia is a charming town but this tour needs to expand to a full day. No time to enjoy old town for even an ice cream or coffee - barely time to take a photo if you wanted to keep up. Guide should have warned at the cathedral of long up/downhill walk. No rest facilities available during entire trip - bus should have stopped at a rest area in both directions. Also, the bus was dirty.

The tour was amazing the castle is awe inspiring the only observation is that the guide had our group literally running to keep up it felt rushed and gave 5 minutes to view the castle and then rush to the cathedral
If you were to add an hour to the tour it would a perfect 10

The setting was beautiful but the bilingual tour was not what we paid for. We wanted an English tour. Switching back and forth between languages was confusing and annoying. Our guide was knowledgeable, but we couldn’t focus on her words.

I do not recommend this tour. It was advertised as a 5 hour tour conducted in both Spanish and English. Our tour guide Delphina spoke almost no English. She was not able to understand or answer any of my questions. 90% of the walking tour was in silence. She basically was just a person showing us the way to the Segovia castle, no history, no information from Delphina. In the castle the group was passed to another guide who spoke better English, but the information was poor. He tried to make jokes mostly. On top, they cut the tour from 5 hours to 3 hours. We ended up spending only one hour in Segovia, and were told to meet by the bus at 6.15 ( 3 hour mark from when we left Madrid). When I asked why the tour is so short, I was told it all depended on the bus schedule… I ended up not leaving Segovia with the bus tour and staying, I left on a train later. When I asked for a refund of this mediocre experience, my request was rejected.
Overall, Segovia is a beautiful town with lots of history and I wish I had a better tour guide. This felt like a rip off (paid about 60 euros). I recommend using a different tour for Segovia experience!

Nice tour. Knowledgable guide. We had Maria. I did find it a bit hard to tell when she switched to English, but overall she was a great guide, very pleasant. Would have been nice to have a full hour or maybe a bit more time to explore the town. We really only went in one shop and a cafe.
