Fantastic introduction to Spain and Portugal! Our concierge and driver were a great team, very knowledgeable of all areas traveled and kept us well informed of all activities. Each hotel was amazing and would love to stay a few more days at each! The organized local tours and guides were always timely, personable and knowledgeable of their particular town. While our time is limited in each stop, we now have a "bucket list" of favorite must return and stay a bit longer towns.
