“A good experience, but a bit annoying that we had to wait for four people, two of whom didn’t turn up. My suggestion would be to move the meeting point to the square, rather than the bus park. Guide was informative and had a good manner. rameiro was also very comfortable in English and had some good tips after the tour.”

Eduardo is a good driver and the bus was very comfortable for long rides. My only disappointment is with the spotty WiFi on the bus. Other than that the trip was perfect.”

“The first review on here suggested the free time in Toledo after the tour guide lets you go off to explore was too long….I would suggest otherwise. We did the 10-4:30pm and found this was just a little short for time to explore and see it all. The guide Paco was excellent, the work shop stop and the city itself was worth every penny paid. Well done.”

“Alfredo and Miguel were great friendly guides Alfredo spoke very loud (good); Miguel was softer and needed to be louder. Miguel gave us a tour while smoking which we were bothered by (looks like a normal thing for Spanish people). At departure, we arrived at the meeting location first (20 minutes before the time) at the cross, but 30 minutes later found the waiting line a little away from the meeting point with a person who only had the yellow jacket around his waist.”
