Amazing experience! - I had a wonderful day .. Firstly the actual locations were simply amazing . To see La Escorial after reading so much about it was like a step back in history for me but the real surprise was The Valley of the Fallen ...I confess that I didn’t know about it before I booked the tour. It was simply breathtaking!!! I could have spent all day just sitting looking at it. But is was more than the locations that made this a rather special day for me. Robert, my driver, was just so lovely and made sure that I was well looked after including where I might stop for lunch ( which was delicious) and taking me to vantage points where I could get some great photos. Finally, Robert was so well informed about Spanish history and spoke really great English so I not only had the fabulous experience but also a chance to talk about history, my favourite topic. I learned lots of interesting facts and stories to add to my growing understanding of Spanish history and culture. I cannot recommend these guys any more than to say that I would most definitely book again for another tour in the future.
