Experience the best of
Segovia with Withlocals

"We had a wonderful custom tour with Maria in Segovia. We especially enjoyed learning about the history of the Alcázar and the town itself. Understanding the historical context made the visit much more memorable and enjoyable than simply walking through the sites. I highly recommend Maria, especially if you enjoy history. As a local guide based in Segovia, she shared fascinating insights throughout the tour, gave us excellent recommendations on where to eat, and helped us plan the timing of our day so we could make the most of our visit. Her knowledge and thoughtful guidance made for a great experience."

"Maria was enthusiastic and generously took the time to explain everything we saw and was incredibly kind and patient with all of our questions. We can’t recommend her highly enough! She also customized our tour to show us historic parts of the old Jewish quarter - very Interesting! "

"Maria's communication, follow up, time management, and adaptability skills were incredible. - From the start, Maria was responsive to our needs and able to customize a time frame that worked for us. - Able to pivot easily- when team members had questions that drove us to stay in 1 location longer, Maria was able to adapt the tour real time and keep us on track, while attending to the needs of the group - Adaptable to share just the right aount of history and interesting facts needed- -Went the extra mile to give us a little local treat in her town. Highly recommended- and I had done lots of research!"

"We visited Segovia and booked Maria for a private tour. She was wonderful and truly knew the city of Segovia. She worked around our schedule and our wishes to see certain sights. I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Segovia. "

"Beyonia showed us all around the Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso. It was a wonderful and thorough tour. My husband particularly enjoyed learning about the plumbing that makes the 26 fountains work and irrigates all the gardens. It was a thrill to learn so much Spanish history in a glorious setting. Thank you. "

"Our guide Maria was amazing , she was so much fun and being from Segovia made it even more special . Her knowledge of every detail was really informative. We originally had two tours booked on the same day , the kick start tour and the Alcázar.. she decided to combine both so that we could have enough time to eat at one of the restaurants she recommended. You could have never asked for the most perfect day. I would highly recommend Maria and thus tour site 😊"

"El tour de Segovia con Maria Aranzazu es una experiencia rica en historia y detalles. Tiene una magnífica actitud y un gran conocimiento de la ciudad y sobre todo de su parte emotiva. Muy recomendable"

"We love Maria! Incredibly warm, funny, very proud of her town, informative, historically on point. We based our walk with her on the internet ratings and they were spot on. If we ever return to Segovia we’ll book her again!"

" In April 2025, we did a group tour of Segovia. It was challenging to hear our guide, and the 'Whisper Systems' were not fully working - lots of static. Never again will we do a group tour after having a Private Tour. You maximise your time and gain more information. For this reason, I'm thrilled to write a positive review for Maria! She answered all our questions and provided a detailed history of Segovia. I highly recommend Maria and will definitely be using her service again when other family members visit Segovia. "

"María was absolutely amazing! Our group included me, my wife, and our 7-year-old son, and she made the entire experience unforgettable. She was incredibly patient with my boy and kept him engaged throughout the tour. Her explanations were clear, detailed, and full of fascinating historical information. You can tell she truly loves what she does—she gave us so much background and context that we left feeling like we understood the real history of Segovia. I would honestly return to Segovia just to take another tour with her. We highly, highly recommend María to anyone visiting. She made our day truly special!"
