Online ticket is enough
Excellent guide Wonderful city Very good tour! The problem is having to go request a ticket at the agency (we were a car with a baby + 1 child and 2 adults) to board a bus that is in another physical location. Having online tickets!!
Operator response
Gracias por compartir su experiencia. Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron de la ciudad, del tour y de nuestro guía. Respecto al procedimiento de recogida, queremos aclarar que es necesario acudir previamente al punto de encuentro para recibir la tarjeta de embarque, ya que en ella se facilita toda la información necesaria para el tour, incluidos los horarios de regreso y nuestro teléfono de contacto para cualquier incidencia durante la excursión. Por este motivo, el ticket electrónico por sí solo no es suficiente para realizar el servicio. Este procedimiento está indicado antes de efectuar la reserva y, además, enviamos un correo recordatorio con las instrucciones y los pasos a seguir antes de la excursión. Entendemos que viajando con niños pueda resultar menos cómodo, pero se trata de un procedimiento necesario para garantizar la correcta organización y atención de todos nuestros pasajeros. Para futuros clientes, cabe señalar que el transporte público de Madrid está plenamente adaptado a personas con movilidad reducida, con asientos preferentes y espacios habilitados tanto en los autobuses como en los vagones de metro para el transporte de carritos de bebé. Agradecemos sus comentarios y nos alegra saber que, pese a este inconveniente, disfrutaron del tour.

A great trip from Madrid to Toledo
A great trip really enjoyed it. From the pick up point to the guided tour of Toledo and then the meeting point for going back to Madrid all went smoothly. The guided tour of the town and cathedral was great and very informative. Thank you.

Incompatible expectations
I booked an English tour, but received a bilingual one. In addition, I didn't understand in advance that I should visit the seven monuments by myself in a very short time while having lunch and touring the shops. Obviously, we didn't make it.
Operator response
Thank you for your feedback. We would like to clarify that the tour is explicitly bilingual, as stated in the booking information. The tourist wristband providing access to the seven monuments is always explained as being for independent visits during free time, without a guide. Our guides also provide the necessary instructions, including how to use the wristband correctly. We regret that this format did not meet your expectations.
