The local tour guides in each of the towns provided the most information detailed about the history and was very interesting. The Europomundo tour guide, Veronica, was very helpful, pleasant and accommodating to the everyday travel assistance and truly cared about everybody having a good trip.

The logical path taken to cover the places in the trip was good.
The trip should include more time in London, Scotland and York and not in Cambridge or Durham. Everything was closed in Durham by the time we reached and we could hardly see anything. Also the hotel room provided in Durham was not at all up to the mark.
Also, our family of 3 adults have travelled together and the rooms provided everywhere were double rooms converted to three-bed. There was no space to move around. Instead we should have been provided with one double room and one single room.
The guide was Spanish and was just able to speak in English. At times we found it difficult to follow him due to his strong accent.
This was a GREAT trip I found the experiences with the guides wonderful. They were very informative and interesting.Inart of the trip I was the only English person. The guide that worked with me was Maria Hoyer. She was very very good, provided detailed information, was very easy to talk to and had a GREAT personality. This in particular is key to a memorable experience. She made that part of the trip very enjoyable
Never did a tour guide before but was enjoyable. i think it would be better if split into mid range ages with mid ranger and elderly with elderly but all was a gd expirience
Overall the trip was pretty well organized. All tour guides we had were very knowledgeable and informative regarding cities and historic landmarks with enough details. Even though we were English speaking our trip included Spanish/ Asian speaking tourists as well. They did a pretty good job of accommodating everyone. I was under the impression our trip was with the same group from start to finish but was not the case and the group interchanged as we progressed along the route. Lots of logistics involved but it seemed to work alright.
The hotels in Madrid (praga) and Seville (alcora) were very bad. There was bad air conditioning..was hot in the room. We complained but nothing was done by hotel. The wi fi was only working on the common area..no connection in the room. Hotel prga breakfast was also quote bad and so was alcora. These are hotels that cater to large groups and that takes away from the comfort and experience of the trip. This was the only criticism of the their trip. Bad hotels provided.
