If she rode in a closed carriage, a medieval lady probably would not have male attendants inside the vehicle with her. More likely than not, soldiers or guards tasked with protecting the lady would be wearing at least some armor; their weapons would have been heavy swords and spears, all of which would have been unwieldy to manuever - or to manuever in - from within a closed vehicle. Inside a carriage would not be a good place from which a medieval guard could respond to a threat If the lady was a good horsewoman - and many were - she might have ridden her own horse, accompanied by armed guards also mounted on horseback. And if she travelled in a carriage, her guards would still most likely have been mounted on horseback, riding before, behind, and beside the carriage.

How did royal people in the middle ages travel from castle to castle?
Queens travelled in carriages that were called chariots at the time, and had two wheels. I don't know how they differed from military chariots, but you can bet they were more comfortable. They also had six wheeled vehicles that apparently looked like little houses on wheels. I have read descriptions of these, but have not seen a picture. I don't know how they turned, but they seem to have had three axles. I don't know how Eleanor of Aquitaine travelled on crusade, but since there were over 300 women with her, I would guess she might have travelled on horseback. In towns and cities, and especially when they did not want to be noticed, queens had the option of travelling in sedan chairs.
