Great trip that we thoroughly enjoyed. The programme leaves little free time, so to maximise sight-seeing it is full-on. Trip to natural park is a nice break at the right time. We visited end Aug / early Sept, where the heat builds up (to 36 C) in the afternoon, but less crowded. Food was outstanding (try tapas), but hostels basic. Buses are good and did the job, but make sure to pre-book some optional trips, such as cathedral rooftop in Seville. Alcazar in Corboda as good. Worth booking extra night in Seville, but you might to go for a bit of luxury in choice of the hotel.
Walking Granada and in Las Alpujarras was an amazing walk, in beautiful autumn weather. The region and its villages was fascinating, the accommodation and food commendable. We had a glitch with bus travel to the first village, but on the whole, everything went very well. I would recommend this walk.
We saw a lot of Sapin which was what we wanted. The itinerary was great. However, it was a bit rushed and a lot more walking then indicated.
The coach was very nice, comfortable and well equipped, nice big window as long as you were not seated by a partition of the windows.
The hotels were for the most part very nice. The hotel in Valencia was terrible.

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.
