Madrid Tours and Trips

Very hectic, covered too many venues, with a time limit at each place, Definitely not a tour for older people. Tour director and driver were kind and considerate, listening and helpful constantly, Food was not always the best at the set menu restaurants, eg paella with only choice of chicken or rabbit, Flamenco boring, story hard to understand and too long Hotels all excellent with generous breakfast selections and service

We totally appreciated Betty's efforts on our behalf. The guides she provided were very good. The experiences were wonderful.. For helpful comments. It might help travellers if you could give some printed and verbal guidance on how to get WiFi, use the shower mechanisms and get a bus or a metro ticket. Location maps were also helpful. Darryl

The trio was terrific-I thought it was very good value for everything that we got. Beck (T.D.Beck) was amazing-she was extremely well organized and kept us all on track. She knew a lot about the two countries that we were in and all of us looked forward to her presentations on the history, including information on Isabella and Ferdinand (“Izzy & Ferdy”), 2 very instrumental figures in the history of the areas we explored. Also, Things came up (someone blathering on her cell phone when the rest of us wanted to listen to stories on Izzy and Ferdy), and Beck handled it (and all other problems) swiftly and with a lot of style. Our driver, Joao was also outstanding. We saw a LOT, and loved it all.

Nose si me encanto por ser mi primera vez viajando con ustedes, pero yo no le cambiaría nada,nosotros quedamos muy satisfechos conosimos mucho en pocos días, estuvo un poco cansado, pero teníamos que aprovechar y gracias a Dios por ese viaje fue ina experiencia maravillosa, Gracias.

Very good coverage of Spain but a little light in Portugal. Second day around Porto would have been nice for sure. I think generally the food provided was very good at breakfasts but dinners were a little underwhelming. Considering Spain is a real foodie country now this could be elevated. Our tour guide Patrick was excellent - a real pro. He made our first tour of this nature very memorable and enjoyable. Luis was our driver and also excellent. Hotels were very good and comfortable. València could be a second night as well but break in Costa del Sol was much needed

Excellent….i think a few less catherdrals and a little more time in Porto, Lisbon and Costa de Sol Betty, our guide could not have been more accomadating. She was very articulate and always informative wherever or whatever we wished to know Overall, great tour
