Great half day trip - Great place to go see. The host was very knowledgeable about this area and it’s beginning. They could have left a little more time for eating and shopping.

Worth the tour just to see the aqueduct.. - Segovia is a charming old city to wander around. We enjoyed the tour just to see the aqueduct and spend some time walking around a section of it. With half the tour time spent on bus travel, the tour may have seemed rushed to those who paid for entry to the alcazar and the cathedral. We chose not to so had some time to look around a bit of the town. The aqueduct however, is just brilliant.

Time well spent - All 3 target sites were worth the time & effort with Alcazar being at the top of the list. Tour was on time. Time allotted was pretty much right on; not too short. Photo ops were a little tight with large group & some opportunities had to be seized as they were not pointed out. Coach travel was high quality. Guide was friendly & well spoken though I did struggle at times with understanding (English). My time & money were well spent!
