All very nice good planning with guide Jorge - Good experience with Jorge our guide. All very beautiful, highly recommended to do the tour. The food in the restaurant is better ordered a la carte than menu, as on the menu I pointed out something that was not really.

Wonderful Gastronomy! And places to remember Always!! - What wonderful places around Madrid! We have seen original paintings and paintings of Velázquez, El Bosco and wonders of a Monastery Palace such as El Escorial, which houses an entire Empire. The views of the Guadarrama Mountains, with the panoramic views of the Valley of the Fallen, spectacular! And the city of Segovia for lunch and enjoyment is amazing, parking and picking up the bus in front of the Aqueduct!

Spectacular! - Guide Alejandro knows a lot: From the Renaissance Library to the Pantheon through instances and paintings of a place that was the heart of the Empire (with its territorial, religious and political conception, together with the figure of Philip II, who inherits the territories of his father (Charles I and V of Germany) and annexes Portugal and territories in Asia and Africa. Awesome! Loved it! See what photos, next to Segovia and the Historic Valley of Guadarrama, next to the Escorial! 11/10 an 11 out of 10! Spectacular guide Alejandro!!
