Afternoon walking tour with Sergio, Corpo Santo Hotel The afternoon walking tour focused on historical places - 1st and 2nd bookstores, historical buildings that cannot be changed, historical shops, and a historical skywalk, among other things. Sergio was very knowledgeable, told us information about each historical building and answered questions, He was patient, and made sure we all stayed together and everyone was present. The timing was just right so we did not get tired walking. The tour took place in another section of town from the morning tour so again I became more comfortable with walking around in that section of town, how it connected to the area of the morning tour, and how to get back to the hotel on my own. The hotel was very nice and clean, modern, and well kept. the staff really looked out for you, and if you looked lost they would ask if you needed help. There were snacks available at all times, and there was usually a pleasant surprise sent up to your room in the middle of the afternoon. The concierge were very helpful with restaurants, and when I missed another walking tour in a different section of the town because of a glitch in that company's email system, Miguel helped me get a refund. I loved the breakfast -- I knew it would not be a buffer, and I liked the idea of staying in one place and getting the service. I found the wait staff very attentive and quick to get you anything you needed. Overall, I had a wonderful stay at the Corpo Santo Hotel, and would definitely stay again if I should visit Lisbon.

Tour Travel and More provided a great tour in Germany There were 3 of us (3 generations) ages 9-71. Made arrangements with Tour Travel & More for private transportation from Frankfurt, Germany to Sinsheim, Germany with a tour of Rothenberg od Der Tauber on the way. It was a wonderful tour. Our guide Joachim was very knowledgeable, professional and personable. It was like traveling with a friend. Sebastian, our driver, was very polite and competent. Umbrellas and water were available. Vehicle was clean and had more than adequate room for us. Joachim gave us lots of info throughout the tour/day but not too much. He recommended a local restaurant in Rothenberg for our lunch and it was wonderful too. He also accompanied my grandson up in a tower to launch the paper airplane my grandson made during lunch. The tour kept us moving but did not feel rushed. I would not hesitate to use this company again.

Consuegra windmills and Toledo tour from Madrid and back My wife and I loved the day tour with Tour Travel and More. We were picked up from our hotel in Madrid by our very competent and pleasant driver, Ruben, in a very comfortable electric Mercedes van. We first went to visit the scenic Consuegra windmills which are known from the adventures of Don Quixote. Then we went to the magical, medieval city of Toledo. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch and then our private tour guide, Luis, met us to begin a walking tour of many city sites. He was great! His knowledge of the history, cultures, physical geography, and shopping is perfect. What a great day. I highly recommend all the above experiences.

Beautiful Historic Towns with Excellent Guides Our private tour was characterized by a wonderful driver (Rouen) and two excellent tour guides (Carol and Louis; apologies if I don’t get names perfect). The weather in Segovia was very cold but we kept walking to stay warm. Both towns were worthy of visiting. Our only recommendation - do not have lunch at Meson de Candido. Lunch was not included but the operators thoughtfully made us reservations at this historic place. It is charming and the family was quite nice - perhaps enjoy a glass of wine there but eat elsewhere in Segovia. All in all, the tour team was top notch and accommodated us with great professionalism, knowledge and obvious pride in their towns.
