The tour guide was very nice and informative. Pedraza and Segovia were both quite scenic although Segovia was truly unique. We have been to many palaces and Segovia's was very unique. The bus was very comfortable inside. The only things I wish the bus had was bottles of water after a long day, for the return trip back to Madrid, and also a step stool. It was quite a drop (longer than a regular standard step height) down from the last step to the ground and the drop really jerked my knee which was doing relatively well 7 months post surgery. But the steep drop really yanked on it. It would be difficult for the elderly to climb up and down out of the bus as well. Other than those two things, the driver, tour guide and tours were very nice.

Also the Pedraza and Segovia were wonderful places to visit, our tour guide, Noria, was horrible. We only had six people on the tour and two of them asked if they could spend a few more minutes in the Cathedral in Segovia to look a something. It would have taken maximum 5 minutes. Noria said only if you want to forget about seeing the Alcazar. So they did get to see what they wanted to see. Next one of the clients asked what she asked, when we were in the Alcazar what she said about the bathroom. She started chewing out that person for not listening. Absolutely horrible

Our tour guide, Martha, was excellent and knowledgeable. From the time we boarded our bus, she was already explaining the history and pointing some of the interesting sights along the way. We thoroughly enjoyed the medieval town of Pedraza. There were only four of us and Pedraza was not inundated with tourists so we had ample time to explore this worldly village. The Spanish tapas we had in Pedraza before proceeding to Segovia was delightful. We were given ample time to view the legendary Aqueduct, admire the opulent interior of the Segovia Cathedral and the iconic Alcazar which is like a fairly-tale castle. Overall it was a very interesting and fascinating tour and would highly recommend it.

great experience

Pedraza was our first stop.........a lovely little town. Included on visit were tapas and some fantastic wine. Then on to Segovia where we opted out of the lunch option those who did really enjoyed their lunch and just enjoyed walking around the town on our own. We then met back up with the others and enjoyed a bit of a guided tour. This small group tour was just right for us..............intimate -- not a big bus tour. Enjoyed this tour out of Madrid very much.

A good day. Pedraza was a gem, medieval village almost frozen in time. Small group tour with excellent guide. Was able to get taxi to cathedral in Segovia to avoid steep walk.
-
It was supposed to be a small group but it ended being just our family of four plus one toddler and another couple so it became more of a private tour. We particularly enjoyed Pedraza with old preserved village feel. Segovia was very interesting especially viewing the aqueduct.
Highly recommend

Pedraza is a cute little town. Segovia was amazing between the aqueduct and the Alcazar. Most stores closed for siesta.
-
It was an OK tour. Pedraza was interesting, but I would skip Segovia.
