Happy about the tour
Great tour and our guides David and Jesus were awesome and knowlegable. Riam the bus driver was great too.
A great day at El Escorial and the Velly of the Fallen
Beatrice was a wonderful guide. She was a delight to listen to, and extremely knowledgeable. The sights were beautiful, and she made them come alive. Highly recommended
Knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide
Beatrix was a fantastically knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide - she really knows her subject and also managed to get us into both basilicas despite there being almost continuous services running on All Saints Day. Thank you Beatrix!
Great guide
Beatrice is great - had a fabulous trip!
Great tour of El Escorial
Beatrice did a great job keeping our large group on track and able to see everything planned on the tour. She has a thorough and detailed understanding of Spanish history that was very informative and also entertaining. We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the Escorial .
