Great Day - Loved this tour! The city of Cuenca was beautiful and I loved learning about it. Our tour guide was great and very friendly and informative. Definitely would recommend seeing. Loved this tour better than some of the other tours of different cities around Spain.

Amazing experience - Have you heard of the expression of taking the shirt off your back? Well literally, Roberto our conductor did that for me. I was not prepared for the cold and wind and he gave me his jacket to wear under my very inadequate jacket. Who does that? Fernando was a great, knowledgeable, funny and compassionate with the older participants. For him, Cuenca is personal, being a native. I loved the size of the tour and the personable care of the experience. It was wonderful.

The enchanted city is a charm - Cuenca has been a real surprise, it has exceeded our expectations. The Enchanted City is spectacular and so is the old town. The guide, Victor, was very pleasant and lively.

Hiking in the Enchsnted city and Cuenca . - The tour was fantastic , it was fun because the main tour is to the enchanted city which is a breathtaking national park . There is a beautiful 1.5h hike plus an amazing panorama before . Finally you head to Cuenca which is adorable and beautiful. The main sites like places mayor and the hanging houses are the main focus . One thing is that they offer an hour and half for lunch in the local restaurants. I just skipped it and saw the amazing views . Let me me say that Fernando our guide was so adorable and friendly and very knowledgeable. Amazing your guide .

Beautiful - Fernando was a great tour guide. Very funny and informative. He was entertaining and made a lot great jokes. However, the tour itself, I did not know that I signed up for bilingual when I had a choice to choose "English" as an option. Had I known, I would have found another tour that was only "English". Other than that, the tour was great. Cuenca and the Enchanted forest (a private property) was beautiful. I would recommend this tour.

Highly recommend - The guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. It's a long day but didn't feel as exhausting as some tours as it was well paced and allowed time for breaks (lunch, bathroom etc). Cuenca is a site not to be missed.

Over priced, over rated hardly trip to Cuenca big lie - 75 euro for trip over priced. Other people paid 59 euro with other tour groups. Didn't go to a winery as stated on tour. Got to Cuenca at 2:30 and forced to have 1 1/2 hour lunch. Tour of Cuenca started only at 4:00 pm. Given 20 minutes free time. Hardly saw any of the city at all. By then the sun was setting. We were on the bus by 6:00. We went on a small huje in the Enchanted City. Tour never mentioned anything about a hike. Very very disappointed 😞
