We went to all of these cities in under 12 hours and never felt rushed. Plus, the bus rides between cities are the perfect siesta! Amazing tour and guide!!”

Full-day coach tour from Madrid to Segovia and Toledo, with the Roman aqueduct, Alcázar entry, and optional Toledo Cathedral interior visit.

“Our trip started out at 8:30 am we left just a couple minutes late but still arrived to Toledo earlier then guide thought. Toledo was great the Cathedral is a must do so beautiful inside. From Toledo we went to Segovia about 2 hrs longest part of the journey. Once in Segovia it starts at the Roman Aqueduct a sight to see. From there we had lunch and then walked the city. The trip was myself my wife and our 15 year old daughter and we all enjoyed it. I’d definitely recommend a must do when visiting Madrid.”

“It's a large tour, so things take a while to do. The synagogue experience could've been skipped, its just a room. We spent more time going thru security than seeing things inside. Cathedral was AWESOME and thr guide was helpful. Between the low quality audio devices and her thick accent, English was hard to understand.
