I liked how the main points of every city were highlighted. The transportation from city to city is very convenient while at the same time seeing more at the multiple stops made to the final destination.
Montsie wasnt great at giving us information about the optional extras so no one got to attend the flamenco dinner and show in Madrid.
While she was always nice and friendly to me and my companion, at times she was rude to the other travellers. It would help if the guides could have copies of the city maps with them and mark the routes back to the hotel. We had to wait for the guides to get the maps from the information centres and then figure out how to get back to the hotel. some stops we could have missed and others we could have spent more time. Example, more time in Malaga and skip Marbella. When Maria joined us, we finally got information about the optional extras, but couldnt take advantage because there had to be a minimum of 15 people. You were lucky we decided to go with your tour because the details are very lacking until you confirm the trip. Also you send emails in Spanish only which is not good for people like me who only speak and read English. Maria was fantastic as a guide and a great asset to your company. She was training Ana and did a fantastic job. Ana has great potential to become another great asset to your company.
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.
Our tour guides were excellent. Both Yelda and Ana provided us with excellent information, were very helpful and always ready to answer any questions we had.
The hotel in Barcelona, Frontair Congress, was a very bad hotel. Hotel staff were rude. The room was dirty. The hotel in Lyon, Campanille, was also dirty and small. The breakfast was bad. Basic spoon, fork and plate were not available.
As for the guides, we were very happy with Abdel, Spain guide, and Diego Bueno, our Interlaken, Grindelwald and Lucerne guide. Both of them were empathetic on our needs. Their English was good. We understood them the entire time. Angeles, our guide in France, was nice but we barely understood her English.
Over-all, we were very happy with the Novotel hotels we stayed in, both in Madrid and Paris.
