Our guide Marissa (I am guessing on the name) is very knowledgeable and helpful and Sarah, the driver is very nice too. I highly recommend to book tours thru Viator.
It was long but very informative day, 3 hour bus ride to Salamanca. Both sites visited were impressive and would like to spend more time in Salamanca. Both tour guides were extremely friendly and helpful. Tour was bin-lingual on a large bus which is not optimal.
Great day visiting 2 beautiful places. The guide Maria was great. I had been to Avila before, but this tour covered some places the tour I did several years ago did not cover. The tour includes cathedral visits in both places - something I was not expecting!
Great tour, Salamanca is a must see when you are in central Spain, the tour guide Belen was very knowledgeable and accommodating.
Loved the experience the guide was great and the cities amazing.
We had the pleasure of the same tour guide Stef who was relaxed, amazing and very knowledgable. If you get her as a guide just sit back and relax. Stef goes over everything before you get out of the bus as well as at the meeting point. Even puts it on a map for you.
