Love how our guide Noa is young, so passionate, and depth of knowledge was incredible beyond her years. Plenty of time at both locations, our driver was fantastic as well. They stay right on time, never felt rush and the van was roomy! Wish they offered a hotel pick up option!
Great trip very nice guide. Unfortunately lack of knowledge of the history and details. I believe the guide need to study up on the subject and way to keep crowd interested. She was a very kind person trying really hard.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the trip and appreciated your guide's kindness and dedication. We're sorry to learn that the level of historical detail did not fully meet your expectations. All of our guides complete a structured training program before leading our experiences, and we continuously invest in their development to ensure they deliver engaging and informative tours. Your comments are valuable, and we will certainly share them with the guide as part of our ongoing training and improvement process. Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback. We truly appreciate it and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again on another Crafted Experience tour. Kind regards, Crafted Experience
Noa was a great guide, challenged by the hottest day and needing to conduct the tour in both English and Spanish. She had deep knowledge of the history of the attractions and notable stories to recount. And she offered treats along the way.
We had a great experience! There were only four people on this tour and Andres gave us the VIP treatment and explained in great detail the history of all the sites we visited. Plenty of time to explore, have lunch in Segovia and finish with a cold beverage in Avila. It's a perfect day trip if you want to get outside of Madrid.
Loved the small groups setting. Tim was super friendly and very fast walking. It was sometimes hard to keep up but he did stop and wait. Tim really thought about good photo spots.
Tour was cancelled day before due to lack of people sighed up
As a small-group tour operator, our experiences require a minimum number of participants to operate. Unfortunately, on this occasion, we did not reach that minimum and had to cancel the departure. While this is standard practice for small-group tours, we understand how disappointing it can be. Although we value every guest's feedback, we would also like to note that, as the tour did not take place, your review does not reflect the experience we provide to travelers who are able to join our tours. We hope you'll have the opportunity to travel with us in the future and experience our tours firsthand. Kind regards, Crafted Experience
We had a great experience with our Guide Tim. He was extremely pleasant, properly explained all the sites visited and allowed us plenty of time for picture taken. He volunteered and took our picture any time when asked and we really appreciated that. Had a wonderful time and will certainly recommend this experience. Also recommend Tim who made this trip very amenable and fun.
Great tour and our guide Tim was fantastic. Segovia was amazing and Avila such an old town. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the car was a little too small for 4 adults with the driver. We are in our 60’s and it wasn’t easy getting in and out of the back of the car. The tour itself was very enjoyable and the 4 stars is not a reflection on our guide. We had a fantastic day.
This was a good mix of several locations. Our group was small enough to 'go with the flow', catering to our wishes while sticking to the schedule. Our guide Tim was exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful. He gave us snippets of history as we walked the cities before the main locations, and he found excellent photo locations - he even took our photos for us. We received waters every time we got to the car and timed bathroom breaks (which was a worry prior to traveling). Highly recommend traveling to two cities and not trying to hit three in a day. Overall, we were very happy with this tour!
Andres & Jay (in training) were very good. There were only 5 of us total so he just spoke to us. No headsets. He told us history and explained how the aqueduct was built. He explained the difference between the Romanesque and Moorish architecture and history of Segovia and Ávila.
