Holland and Spain Tours and Trips

It was enjoyable trip, covering different parts of the island. There was time on some days for a paddle or swim, and always a cafe at the end of the walk!! The transport was excellent and always prompt. There was a pool at the hotel, so odd times early return to hotel allowed for a dip. The kitchen arrangement in each bedroom with a fridge made it convenient for making hot drinks and lunches. The leader was excellent and very aware of each person when on rough terrain.

I really enjoyed this area and all the walks we did, and the day off on the coast. Overall a very positive and friendly experience for my first group holiday on my own for 25years. The walks we did were essentially all in a semi-circle area around a valley, though each day had a slightly different character and feel to me. All were either started from the pension or a short drive away. We saw some goats and buzzards, though overall less wildlife than I am used to. All the paths were relatively quiet compared to many English popular areas, which I enjoyed. There was a drive down to a stream through narrow town streets that was fun and a chance to buy local olive oil (which did survive the flight back). I enjoyed getting up to see each pretty sunrise. Both towns we visited either side of Benidorm on our day off I also surprised myself by enjoying and are worth visiting.

I had a fun and memorable trip sightseeing many beautiful places in the company of people from all over the world. The Travel Director and driver are excellent and attentive to everyone. All the Local Specialists are also excellent.

My recent Highlights of Andalucia trip in November 2025 was outstanding. Superb leader, excellent itinerary, good pace, and amazing travellers on this particular trip. Thanks to Craig, our fearless leader, for making this trip one to remember.

Our trip on the Portugese Coastal Camino was excellent. They were very easy to work with and their communications were immediate. They took care of all hotels, luggage transfers, most meals and GPS directions. If we had any questions, they were quick to respond. We plan to use their services again.

The itinerary was great, and I don't give it the full smily face because two days of the walks had to be replaced by lighter ones as a big storm passed over the island - so I can't comment on them. No fault of the guide or tour operator, indeed the guide rightly put safety first. The island is a mix of dry lower parts and forested higher parts, all visited. Lunch and evening meals need to be paid for separately but were good and well arranged.
