Beatrice was a great tour guide who knows a lot about all of the spots. It was obvious that she took time to learn beyond just the basics. Manuel was an excellent driver.

This is my second tour with Beatrice as the guide. She is an excellent and very knowledgeable guide. She provides great information and is also quite funny. She jumps seamlessly, and quickly, between Spanish and English so that you are always engaged in the tour, regardless of your language.

We had a very eloquent guide, Beatriz, who educated us not only on the monuments being visited but also on the historic background of the important people and their relationships.

Beatriz was a very good guide! We had some unexpected hickups and she managed to avoid them which was nice so we could still experience the full tour! Definitely recommend.

Our visit to the Escorial was well worth it. Both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the guide, Rodrigo. His explanations were clear and entertaining at the same time.
