A great option to soak into history

Juan_M, Nov 2024
The original tour got canceled and the new tour operator VPT (Viajes Para Todos) was the substitute. The guide Elena gets confused when switching from English to Spanish and she seemed rushed, and couldn’t keep the group together for long. The driver Paco was great and drove us safely throughout.

"Segovia Delight: History, Cuisine, and Charm with Guide Ruben

Irina_V, Jan 2024
The journey was smooth from the beginning, with an easy meeting point and a clear and polite tour guide, Ruben. We were fortunate to have a private tour due to others not showing up. Ruben's extensive knowledge and engaging answers to our questions about culture, food, and history made the hour-long drive to the castle enjoyable. Exploring the castle provided insights into the customs of Spanish kings and queens, as well as a glimpse into the armory. Afterward, during a walk, Ruben shared the rich history and traditions of Segovia. The two hours of free exploration allowed us to discover the city, and we had a delightful lunch at Asador el Bernardino, savoring local dishes, including the traditional dessert Ponche Segoviano. Ruben's punctuality and the overall experience made the entire trip a delight. I would certainly recommend it to my friends.

Not great

Joel_S, May 2023
The two guides were very good. Far too little time with guides. Far too much time driving and waiting.

Highlight of our trip

Sara_F, Apr 2023
Our tour was fantastic! We loved exploring both towns and learned a lot about the history. Our guide Ruben was wonderful, friendly and very knowledgeable. The size of the group was not too big so we got to know other people from around the world during our tour as well which was a bonus. Would highly recommend!
