Lisbon was awesome as was the Island Maderia. One of the issues that upset me was the fact that the tour manager assumed that all of us had cell phones. He was texting all of his directions to everyone. I told him that wouldn't work with me. I don't own a cell phone. He did start giving some directions at night verbally, but I still didn't get all of his directions that he texted to everyone else.
A wonderful historical experience walking through all these 11th to 14th century towns and buildings. Stephanie was a great tour guide and very helpful and informative. Collette is a first class company as Hotels and restaurants were all excellent.
