Top Spain Day Trips - page 84

Martina is an amazing guide. She was shepherding a big group of 50 odd travellers. Very patient. We were not informed that Cabke Car is not operational. We took a taxi which was arranged by Martina. But it was a bit chaotic and the cab driver Ryan was stressed. But the experience of visiting the rock and all other monuments was truly unbelievable

Excellent tour guide and experience! Gaspar was punctual and very VERY knowledgeable. He truly gave us a full day! Even while driving, he spent the time informing us of Spanish culture, customs and history. Loved that he had information on different buildings and sites, not just the main touristy places. He is very experienced with us tourists as he picked meeting places to rendezvous that were very obvious, less crowded and where we would not get lost or confused! Loved the entire day, but perhaps one of the most fun parts, was grabbing sandwiches in a place he took us to. He told us how to order, pay and complete the process and it was SO FUN! We left feeling like locals! Great day and I highly recommend this tour and this tour guide, Gaspar.

This was a wonderful tour. I had been to Toledo some 30 years ago with fond memories. My husband had never been there. We chose this trip operated by fun and tickets. One advantage is the departure point was just one block away from our hotel indigo on Gran Via. Signing up for the trip and receiving our tickets through VIATOR worked very well. I had read reviews of the trip and had good anticipations. Upon arriving at departure point I learned our guide would be Beatrice who had been mentioned in several reviews as an excellent guide. And so she was. Yes this trip is operated in both Spanish and English. That was expected and did not bother us. Beatrice speaks very well and her English is easy to understand. She took us on our fitness walk across to Ledo with many interesting stops and explained so much to us. We did have a 30 minute break shortly after arriving in TOLEDO which enabled us to get some coffee and visit a restroom. We also had two hours free time after our couple of hours of guided touring and that worked out well. The transportation was smooth too. We highly recommend this tour to all

David was fantastic! He had a vast knowledge of El Escorial and his interest in the monastary was evident. I have to say the differences between the sites El Escorial and what Franco built couldn't be more different; opulant to austere a matter of minutes apart.

Great tour and knowledgeable in-depth overview of Segovia and Avila. Definitely learned a lot! Please note this tour moves QUICKLY. As in don’t get accidentally separated from your group to take a picture like I did, because Segovia in particular is crowded and it may be hard to find them again (took me 2 blocks and the help of a Good Samaritan lol)

We really enjoyed the tour! The bus was comfy, the pickup point not far from where we are staying. Tour guide Michael was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and he was very passionate and proud of Lanzerote. Bus driver Melvic was a pro. The tour was very interesting and not too long at 5 hours.

This was an amazing tour. It takes you out of the hustle and bustle of beautiful Barcelona and shows you more of the actual country. Hugo was extremely knowledgeable and a 100% Catalan. We had a bad storm roll in and he worked around it to make the best of it, despite the storm. He showed and told us things about Barcelona that were very interesting. Monsterrat is a must see. Família Sagrada is also a must do.

Noelle, our guide, and Antonio, our bus driver, were great! But all that was easily beaten by the destinations and amazing views (and multitude of photos) that were included in the tour. And yes, they so leave the best for last. Life is good ... God is gooder ;-).
