I loved my Back Roads tour to Northern Spain. Everyday was fabulous! Julia was the most wonderful tour guide. She was knowledgeable, enthusiastic & such fun!! The best tour guide ever! The accomodation was better than I imagined. Very disappointed in our meal at Monasterio de Boltaña. It was inedible! I hate to think what we’d paid for it!!!!!
