Guide was 15 minutes late meeting tour after lunch and again at the end of the day. Very unprofessional.

José was great. He was informative and easy to ask questions to. Segovia and Ávila are both places I am so happy I experienced seeing.

Places that we visited were one of the most beautiful I have ever seen but unfortunatly we didn't have no time to Explorer and see the. We were always waiting for someone in the bus and couldn't leave on time. And the we had like 20 minutes of free time in every city. It clearly wasn't enough. The guides were both pleasant people but didn't proovide us any interesting facts maybe just a couple. I would like It if we could hear more during the driving the bus. I also bought another tour I hope It Will be better.

Nicely paced out and friendly guide. I enjoyed the convenience of booking, meetup stop and the overall travel very much. I would recommend this to my friends.

The speed at which we running through both cities but especially Avila where we did not stop excet for the introduction at the beginning of the 'tour'. First of all there were 2 coachloads being handled by 1 guide trying to speak in 2/3 languages. Considering that both cities, especially Segovia ar on hills that need to be reached by steep uphills, just whizzing through at breaknek speed is simply not acceptable, especially if some of the group are either old or have motionary problems. In Segovia the visit to teh castle was good but we lost time as it was ot clear to some of us that buying tickets on site was a bit way off teh main entance and it obviuously halted the whole grup as teh guide had to wait. But then after the castle , he just whisked away and it was only becuae of the whatsapp App , we managed to reach but once again running and I mean runing uphill is NO joke. But what really annoyed us was that after rishing through thecity not even stooping to take a photo of the monuments of the place, including what should have been a mini stop at teh Cathedral, we ended next to the aqueduct only to be given a 90 minute break so that he could take some of the group for lunch when thios was not part ofthe program. Had we known about it, we would have rather stopped at the top in the main square and wended our way down to the Aqueduct plaza in good time to meet teh group; but we were too tired at 1300 to walk back up the hill. Had it not been for the good Alcazar tour, I would have given this tour a 0 rating. We have taken many tours through Viator and have been always happy with service and had good value for money but this was simply DISASTROUS

We had an amazing time with our wonderful host and tour guide Jose Luis! He was informative, entertaining and funny! The views were incredible and we had just the right amount of time at each stop to enjoy it!! A day we won't soon forget ❤️ We highly recommend this tour!

Our guide José Luis was very organized yet relaxed and friendly. He provided all different types of information about the history of the cities and Spain in general. His english was very good. He kept a good pace and provided time for conveniences like a quick coffee and bathroom breaks. Highly recommend.

Good value day trip to see Segovia, a beautiful city that my family loved. Avila was also nice, but most things were closed on a Monday

Not a great tour. The bus was very uncomfortable with little leg room. We were absolutely jammed in like sardines. Uncomfortable!! The female guide did both Spanish and English but didn’t really seem to know interesting history to impart. I would recommend she research more and work on a better presentation. For 30 minutes in Avila we were held hostage at a candy store listening to an interminable explanation of how the candy is made from eggs and sugar. We had to wait through this BORING advertisement before the guide would take us up on the city walls, which we had paid for. We could have had 30 more minutes exploring the beautiful city, but didn’t! This was the largest and worst tour I’ve been on with Viator or trip advisor. It would have been much better to purchase train tickets and go on our own.
