I participated in the Segovia and Avila tour with Mateo guide and Luis Mariano driver. Both were very friendly and helpful. It was a great experience full of history and jocular anecdotes of the time. I highly recommend it and would do it again.
Great tour...but group size ENORMOUS

Our guide, Mateo, was incredible. Personable, informative, and spoke Spanish and English fluently. He engaged with individual guests too and not only the group. I give him five stars. However, when I signed up for the tour it said each group would be a maximum of 35 people. To me, this means if the group on the bus is 50 people, there would be two guides. Then at each destination we would split. This was a very large group to herd up and around. Since this matters to me, the wording on the tour overview should be updated. Right now, it's false advertising.
Wonderful.

Good experience, for putting a but....perhaps little time to go freely, but of fantastic rest. Both the guide Mateo, who demonstrates a wide mastery of what has been visited, and is always watching the group, and the driver Nacho, who has taken us on a long journey that has become quite pleasant, with a quiet and smooth driving, has been an excursion of 10. We would certainly repeat
