Overview

Discover three cities in one day on a full-day tour of  Segovia, Ávila and Toledo from Madrid. You will depart early and head for Segovia, where you will start with a guided tour accompanied by our official guide, taking us around Segovia’s historic centre. Find out why this city is a UNESCO World Heritage site. You will stroll through the city’s main squarePlaza Mayor, beholding monuments such as the aqueduct and the cathedral and we will enter the former royal palace and fortress – the Alcázar Real.

Then you will leave for Ávila. Visit the Ávila’s historic centre and discover the legacy of this city declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Be amazed by its fascinating history!

The route will continue along a stretch of the famous Walls of Ávila. How has it been preserved to the present day? You will reveal these questions on the thick wall that surrounds the city’s entire historic centre as we head toward the Roman necropolis.

Then you will make a stop to have lunch in a local restaurant in the old town, where you will enjoy a typical “Iberian Traditional Meal” You will continue the trip heading for Toledo, your third stop of the day and our third city declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Toledo has a long-standing Christian, Jewish and Muslim tradition. Therefore, it is also known as the city of three cultures. You will not only visit the most representative places of each one of these cities on this tour, but you will also visit some precious hidden nooks and crannies only known to a few locals. You will enter a monastery of nuns, where you will taste typical Toledan marzipan, the jewel in the crown of the city’s pastries. The nuns will show you a recipe that has been passed down from generation to generation for centuries. At the end of your tour (the experience lasts around 11 hours), you will return to the centre of Madrid in a comfortable minibus, where your guide will be able to recommend things to do during the rest of your stay.

Have fun and feel unique in your experience in a Premium Small Group tour. Enjoy this cities with us.

Spain with Paula = a great adventure

We did the All day Segovia Avila and Toledo tour with Paula on Thursday Dec 12th, 2019. It was AMAZING!!! Wanted to give Paula props to giving wonderful historic info, guiding and keeping track of everyone in the group, and just being a joy. She was always smiling and answering questions and she gave us enough time at each place. The sites were incredible and for only having one day, I felt like I got a good feel for the cities. For the food, I will say it was wonderful also. Perfect view and location, and the 3 course meal was tasty and local food, which is always a bonus. Authentic experience all around, thank you!! And we even made it back a little late to the office, and neither Paula nor the driver complained. Professional and kind and helpful for the whole day.

Wow! Three cities in one day

Our family went on this 3 cities in one day small group tour! It was excellent- well-designed and timed! It’s very busy but you get a great overview of each city- Segovia, Avila and Toledo. Our tour guide- Nacho was very knowledgeable and kept the commentary interesting without being boring! He also kept a close eye on the group so no one got lost on the way. Our driver Enrique was very safe and dropped us off at great spots and timed well with Nacho to be waiting with a warm bus to pick us up from the cold outdoors! Lunch at Elliensa that was included was plentiful- only downside is really no vegetarian options but seafood and meat lovers will be satisfied. The marzipan was yummy and a glass of cava to celebrate our return to Madrid was a nice touch! We would definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent tour experience

My dad and I traveled on this tour with Paula and Suso as our driver and tour guide. We had an excellent time with these two as they guided us through the history of these ancient cities. Suso was a safe and attentive driver, and he delighted us with funny jokes along the way. Paula was an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide, and I was very impressed by her professionalism and willingness to help. She ensured that our group stayed together and didn’t get lost, especially in the crowded and winding alleyways of Toldedo. Overall the tour was well-planned and expertly executed. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience the rich history of Spain!

Three great cities, two great guides, and one great tour!

Paula and Suso were amazing at their job. Paula herself showed superb knowledge in the history of the most significant sites of every city we visited. She also showed professionalism with her job as a tour guide and attentiveness towards the safety of the tourists she was responsible with. Her companion, Suso, was the driver and I commend his professional driving skills, ensuring we got out and back in Madrid in one piece. The tour, overall, was well laid out and made us feel like part of the action.

Amazing trip for those with limited time in Madrid

Tamar and Suso were amazing guides. I was the only english speaking person in the group and the guide was very patient in explaining the history of the places we visited in both Spanish and English. This tour is recommended for people with limited time in Madrid. The tour company are very helpful and attentive to details. They make sure that you have an enjoyable day. Highly recommended.
