Guidekin's take

Three heavyweight sites in one 10h day: a guided walk at El Escorial, the Valley of the Fallen and Segovia, at €69 per person.

Monastery entry is an optional add-on and meals are on you, which is how the price stays this low for the mileage.

Best for: El Escorial, the Valley of the Fallen and Segovia in one 10 hour sweep at €69 per person: 4.76 from 70 reviews. El Escorial comparison

Trade-off: Monastery entry is an add-on.

In our comparison: #12 of 22 in Segovia & Ávila, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
