Excellent small group tour of Peniscola - This was an excellent day trip from Valencia. It was nice bonus that it was a smaller group tour of Peniscola. We haven't watched game of thrones yet but will have to watch it now we have seen some of the filming sites. Thanks Batwalking.

Neat tour with unbelievable views - An exceptional tour to Peniscola! Batwalking Tours does a very good job and he has short video clips to help tie in the GoT scenes to the town. The views and town are absolutely amazing! Our only complaint is it says private transfer and we had 7 people but he added a solo traveller to our transfer/group trip. Luckily the gentleman was very nice.

Great Experience - I honestly don’t understand a few of the bad reviews. Miguel was a great guide and the tour had a great pace. He showed us the areas where GoT was filmed and even showed us the corresponding scenes on his tablet. The city itself was so picturesque and cute. I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Beautiful area to tour, not so good tour guide - Peniscola is a very nice place. I don't think the tour guide did a great job. For 1, we went in 2 vans with about 8 passengers in each. For our group of 6, the tour guide pointed to us and said 5 in that one and 1 in the other. So I went by myself on the drive. Another passenger pointed out that if our group of 6 was combined with one of the couples, we would have fit in one van without splitting up. The guide really made no effort. We got there safely. The tour guide spends too much time on details of history, stopping often, so after not getting in to the old peniscola very far, due to many stops, another guest and I asked when was the castle entrance time and insisted on meeting up with the tour guide, who had our entry tickets, and then we had better time, eating on our own and walking around until the castle time. In previous tours, tour guides did a better job on keeping the group going and moving and not getting too side tracked on too many conversations and many details. In summary, we got bored and quick, and as the other guest said, we don't have a lot of time and we are stopping too much. I do also wish there was water available as refreshments on the 1.5 hr trip, but there were none. I'm sorry to supply this feedback, as I usually stay positive, but our entire family felt this way and I only hope it improves for other people.
