Great tour and guides! - Great tour! Carlos was fantastic and Lola at Alcazar was great! Very interesting, town, aqueduct, castle were worth seeing. So glad we included this on our short stay in Madrid. Highly recommend.

Fairy tale view - The tour was amazing the castle is awe inspiring the only observation is that the guide had our group literally running to keep up it felt rushed and gave 5 minutes to view the castle and then rush to the cathedral If you were to add an hour to the tour it would a perfect 10

A quick walk through Segovia - The tour is very quick and does not allow time to explore the city on your own. You finish the tour and that's it and you have to go to the truck. We couldn't buy any souvenirs.

Good tour. Nice town. More free time would be nice - Nice tour. Knowledgable guide. We had Maria. I did find it a bit hard to tell when she switched to English, but overall she was a great guide, very pleasant. Would have been nice to have a full hour or maybe a bit more time to explore the town. We really only went in one shop and a cafe.

Too fast paced- no time to enjoy Segovia. - Segovia is a charming town but this tour needs to expand to a full day. No time to enjoy old town for even an ice cream or coffee - barely time to take a photo if you wanted to keep up. Guide should have warned at the cathedral of long up/downhill walk. No rest facilities available during entire trip - bus should have stopped at a rest area in both directions. Also, the bus was dirty.

Not what we paid for - The setting was beautiful but the bilingual tour was not what we paid for. We wanted an English tour. Switching back and forth between languages was confusing and annoying. Our guide was knowledgeable, but we couldn’t focus on her words.

Not as advertised. No English speaking guide. Cut the duration of the tour! - I do not recommend this tour. It was advertised as a 5 hour tour conducted in both Spanish and English. Our tour guide Delphina spoke almost no English. She was not able to understand or answer any of my questions. 90% of the walking tour was in silence. She basically was just a person showing us the way to the Segovia castle, no history, no information from Delphina. In the castle the group was passed to another guide who spoke better English, but the information was poor. He tried to make jokes mostly. On top, they cut the tour from 5 hours to 3 hours. We ended up spending only one hour in Segovia, and were told to meet by the bus at 6.15 ( 3 hour mark from when we left Madrid). When I asked why the tour is so short, I was told it all depended on the bus schedule… I ended up not leaving Segovia with the bus tour and staying, I left on a train later. When I asked for a refund of this mediocre experience, my request was rejected. Overall, Segovia is a beautiful town with lots of history and I wish I had a better tour guide. This felt like a rip off (paid about 60 euros). I recommend using a different tour for Segovia experience!
