This was a wonderful day trip. The only thing I would recommend is that the two hours of free time be in Toledo so that those who do the tour of the Cathedral have time to visit the Church of St. Thomas.
Great way to see both cities and get some free walk around time.
This day tour to Toledo and Segovia was honestly one of the highlights of my trip to Spain. Both cities are absolutely breathtaking, each with its own unique character, and the whole experience was made even better thanks to our wonderful guides, Jessica and Maria. Toledo felt like stepping back in time. Walking through its narrow cobblestone streets, surrounded by centuries of history, was magical. Jessica did an incredible job bringing the city to life with her storytelling, blending historical facts with local anecdotes that made everything feel real and engaging. Segovia was equally impressive — the Roman aqueduct alone is jaw-dropping, and the fairytale-style Alcázar is something straight out of a storybook. Maria guided us through Segovia with so much passion and knowledge, making sure we didn’t miss any key details while still giving us time to explore and enjoy at our own pace.
Enjoyable day and paced well - lots of free time potential and plenty useful info given, all instructions very clear
Maria was the BEST. Her patience and knowledge are a gift to whom ever has the opportunity to experience. It was pouring and she did not miss a beat. Segovia was magical!
Such a great place to capture wonderful views back towards the Cathedral and the surrounding valley. The building itself is amazing with loads of period artifacts. The audio guide is well worth the 3.50 euros to listen during and after the visit.
The Alcázar of Segovia looks like something straight out of a fairytale. Its distinctive ship-like shape perched high on a rocky hill makes it one of the most beautiful castles in Spain. Originally built as a fortress in the 12th century, it later became a royal palace for the Castilian monarchs, a military academy, and even served as inspiration for Walt Disney’s Cinderella Castle. Walking through the Alcázar feels like stepping back in time. The Hall of Kings (Sala de los Reyes) is breathtaking with its detailed ceilings and portraits of Castilian rulers. The Throne Room, the armory, and the chapel each tell a different story from Spain’s royal past. Everything inside is remarkably well preserved. Climbing the Tower of John II is the highlight of the visit. The view over Segovia, the cathedral, and the surrounding plains is absolutely stunning.
My husband and I visited the Alcazar on a Thursday in late March. It was a little chilly, but that was mainly the elevation difference from Madrid. We had booked an 11am audio tour, but our train got in pretty early and we were able to get into the Alcazar early as well, which was great and we nearly had the place to ourselves. There are signs in many languages pointing you toward the Alcazar from Segovia town center, so it's hard to miss and a nice walk. It's a wonderful castle and the audio tour does a great job of enumerating the areas, and the sites you're looking at. From the moat to the armory, great hall, and many outside areas. We got a lot of great history and a lot of the designs reminded me of the Alhambra, of course. An unexpected delight was the gift shop.There I was able to get an English language book on Isabella of Castille, which had I looked for unsuccessfully in multiple Madrid bookshops. We also got a lovely cloth castle ornament. I do wish we had been able to go down the hill to see the ship-like cliffside view of the Alcazar from that lower angle. But our knees hurt from nearly two weeks of walking around Spain.
Beautiful castle. Be aware the tower steps are steep, uneven and claustrophobic. Views are amazing! We even saw a rainbow in the sky. Lots of armor, architectural beauty, a garden maze and the remains of a drawbridge. Castle is surrounded by park like setting and lots of flower gardens!
It's best to get tickets early for the fortress and tower. In warmer months, the top of the tower is very warm. Overall it's a wonderful tour. The Artillery Museum is interesting but no English signage. But the audio guide for the palace is worth it. The vistas from the fortress were impressive. There's a cafe down in the old Laboratories building outside the main gate. This is where your buy tickets.
