We had the most amazing day! The tour was truly magical. Our driver was informative, timely and professional. The car was super comfortable, clean and air conditioned providing a welcomed relief from the warm summer heat.
What we loved about the tour:
1) We were able to visit both Avila and Segovia in one very full day and felt like we were able to see the most important sites and still have sufficient time to wander around on our own to shop and eat. Highlights included the Roman aqueducts, St. Teresa’s Cathedral, the magnificent castle, stopping at panaramac views, shopping and so much more.
2)The tour driver provided essential information and history giving you the historical context of what we were seeing.
3) the driver was wonderful about meeting us in convenient locations helping to reduce some of the walking which in the mid day heat was very helpful. We loved having opportunities to explore on our own.
4) Customer service was truly exceptional. Dory was very responsive to my emails and kept in contact throughout the booking process answering questions and providing opportunities for specific requests. This is vastly different from what I’ve experienced at large group tours which are not specifically tailored to customer needs.
While the tour was costly, I would still highly recommend it to others. Many people online will say it’s easy to take trains and this can be done “on your own” but I believe you would miss a lot of the historical significance and spend too much time, money and energy just trying to navigate public transportation (especially in the intense heat). This is one tour worth splurging on!
thank you for a truly wonderful and amazing experience.
