The Alcazar probably reminds you of some Disney castles, as its exterior architecture served as inspiration for some of Walt Disney’s films, such as Cinderella’s Castle or the Queen’s Castle in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Great Experience - Julia Travel added value to my trip in Spain. I took the Segovia (5 hours tour) and was a great experience. The company count with very comfy buses and the tour guide was awesome. I understand that the price for the tour was very reasonable. Definitely my next trip to Madrid I will use again this Company's tour(s) service.

Enchanted Segovia Tour - Segovia was beautiful!!!!! And our guide was excellent, giving us info, but never overdoing it. We learned much history and some culture of the Spanish kings and the Moors. The Alcathar is off the charts beautiful, again, so much history in that enchanted place. The bus ride was seamless, and even if our group had no audio (technical difficulties), our guide just spoke so that we could all hear. Great trip indeed!

While the guide tried his... - While the guide tried his best to make the trip worthwhile, there were two problems: the same guide provided the information in both languages (English and Spanish) making it confusing; the second problem was an administrative issue to sort who paid for the standard tour or the one including the Alcazar. We lost time in an already very short trip

On our own - We didn't realize we did not buy the ticket with tour guide. When we started the tour, she was very rude. Told us that we were on our own and address of where the bus was going to be to take us back. We weren't sure of the area and asked her where that was she said to Google it.

Beautiful city, worthless sound system. - The city of Segovia was beautiful but the sound system on both this tour and the City Bus tour (same company) we took the day before was absolutely worthless. This company should invest in a headset for the guide in order to avoid all the ambient street noise. There should also be the option of ear pieces that are not ear buds. They are very uncomfortable.
