Day trips from Madrid

Quite comfortable bus, brilliant restaurant in Segovia and very beautiful places. The downside is that there’s very little time to stop and appreciate everything in detail, especially the aqueduct and the unvisited cathedral.

Avila and Segovia are to be visited time and time again. I will never tire of walking through their streets and I have already thought about returning with my parents through this company.

History and art. Between both cities, there are at least 4 essential monuments to see in Spain, as well as many other interesting but not so famous ones.

Spectacular places. The Alcázar, the Cathedral and the aqueduct of Segovia along with the walls of Avila are impressive, worth seeing if you’re in Madrid

I loved the tour with this agency. The guide was very well prepared but sometimes gave the same explanations in English and Spanish, which took some time.

Fantastic. We really enjoyed both cities and all their monuments.

Most of the group were older people and the tour was very fast-paced. Even so the cities are beautiful and my husband and I were amazed by the aqueduct.

I went by myself, and it wouldnt have been the same if I hadnt gone on a tour. The guide gave us tons of information on the history of Avila and Segovia, the latter was my favorite.

Great visit. We had enough time to see the most emblematic monuments of both cities as well as many other places, like palaces, which arent as popular.

A pleasant tour. We saw Segovia and Ávilas highlights. Although I wouldnt recommend it for people who cant walk long distances or who have small children.

Art and history. I think that if you go to Madrid you have to visit Toledo, as it was the old Spanish capital and has a lot of very impressive places such as the cathedral, the alcazar and the Jewish quarter.

Excellent. Congratulations on the organization, our evening experience in Toledo was perfect.

Very complete. Starting with a panoramic view of the city form the viewpoint was great, to then visit the most emblematic places.

Perfect to get to see Toledo. The street tour and visiting the city highlights was very interesting and broad enough to get an idea of the city and how it was during the time of its maximum splendor in the sixteenth century.

Very complete. Except for the inside of the cathedral, I think we saw the other city highlights and were able to value these place’s history and art…

The good quality offered via the advertisement and information shown by Julia through Shortplans was as advertised.

This was my second visit and this time I brought my mother. Toledo is a gorgeous city in every way and I love it because you can walk easily through its streets.

A very fast pace on the part of the guide, who was young. There were older people in the group and there were many ascents in the city that they needed to take at their own pace, and so they ended up missing part of the guide’s explanations. A shame on that part.

Very good and recommended experience.

Highly recommend. The tour is as good as the information that was given by the guide and the visits to the temples.

Highly recommended. It gave us time to see almost everything that Segovia and Toledo have to offer, and the guide gave us very complete information.

100% recommended. The history, the monuments, the tour, the guide, everything was awesome.

Spectacular. Nice tour through Toledo and Segovia and Alfonso was a fantastic guide as well as his explanations.

Very complete. We visited the most emblematic places of both cities and had time to visit the ones we found most interesting.

We loved it. Being able to visit both cities in a single day was amazing.

Completely recommended. I think we saw the highlights of both cities.

I loved it. I thought about visiting Salamanca and Avila on my own and over several days but with this tour I was able to enjoy both cities in a single day and value their highlights due to our guide, Estefani’s, indication.

Lovely. The tour allowed us to visit the points described in this page. Highly recommend.

Incredible places. We saw many historical places that we were able to appreciate even more due to the guide’s explanations. The tour was long but felt short because of everything we saw.

An essential visit in Spain. If you go to Madrid I think this is a must due to the tour’s historical and cultural value. Also, value for money is very good

The best way to visit these two monuments. We travelled comfortably from Madrid and the guide explained the peculiarities of these two wonders in detail and with interesting facts, so we could appreciate them even more.

Incredible. Fantastic visit to two monuments that represent such a great part of Spain’s history and art

Great tour. We were able to see a lot of the rooms of the Monastery of the Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen, although I feel we could’ve seen more in the monastery.

A must if you’re in Madrid. El Escorial is certainly spectacular, unique, and the guide offered us very food information to value those moments even more.

Awesome. Seeing these two works of art in a single morning is definitely worth it.

The history, the architecture, and the amazing views—this tour had it all!

We learned so much about Toledo’s history. It was a great mix of guided tours and free time to wander.

The excursion was nice, but the tapas were disappointing. I expected something more authentic and tasty

From the Alcázar to the Jewish Quarter, everything was amazing! Our guide was super knowledgeable and friendly.

Toledo is an absolute gem! This tour covered all the highlights, and we even had time to relax and shop.”
