Our family loved this trip! We had plenty of time to explore each town. The kids enjoyed walking on the walls of Ávila, and we got great views and pictures. Segovia was amazing, we had time to have lunch on our own and explore the town for a little, then go on the tour of Alcazar. Jorge was an excellent guide, he was very knowledgeable and made a point to say everything in English as well as Spanish. He was super friendly and helpful. There was plenty of time for breaks and he waited for everyone to arrive before moving on, we never felt rushed. It was a long day and could have felt stressful but it worked seamlessly. I would definitely recommend this tour company.

The countryside is gorgeous, a must see! The Roman walls and aqueduct are incredible and the alcazar is picturesque. Jorge and Roberto were great, very friendly, informative, and patient!

Excellent trip through Avila and Segovia. The tour was informative and gave time to explore on our own as well. We had three children with us between 10-14 and they all enjoyed the tour.

Jorge was a pleasant and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed the trips to both Avila and Segovia. Time, though, is relatively short for a thorough visit to both places. Yet, it provides a good start to visit both cities again in future.

The cities are unmissable, but I would travel with a different company. The bus had less leg room than an economy class airplane seat. But Roberto the driver was good, and Kathy was okay. She could add more historical detail and for sure, more attention to the walls of Avila, which are stunning and unique.
