Tour Guides were very nice and helpful...they answered any questions that we had and went out of their way to make sure the experience was the best that it could be. Great, Great tour guides.
This is really not a tour for English speaking tourists. We were the only ones on our bus. Maria was great at making sure we felt comfortable and know the history about the places we went. I didn’t like that we were bounced around from bus to bus and a different group everyday. Since we were the only ones that spoke English other than the guide, we didn’t really speak to anyone and make any friends. I felt like some of the stops could have been longer. We would stop at a cute village for 45 minutes and 15 of that would be standing in line for the restrooms with everyone else on the bus. Overall we were happy with the tour. Maria is the best and if she could have been with us the whole time it would have been better. I would recommend this if you speak good Spanish so that you could communicate with other travelers.
Overall, it was an enjoyable trip. Hotels were good, included meals were largely satisfactory, and two of the tour guides - Emmanuel Vinci and Esperanza - provided excellent service in terms of providing relevant information and keeping the group entertained with their informative and humorous style of explanation. However,I felt that some stops could be excluded and time given at some stops Carcassone and Arles should be reduced. Europamundo tours are excellent value for money and the arrival transfer included us a big plus in favour of the tour company.
Loved the self-drive tour, gave us the ability to stay on our own schedule. Locations were great with lots to explore in each town as well as along the drive. Ronda and Seville were our favorite! We had the ability to stop while on the road to wine and olive oil taste too, as well as explore Castillo de Almodovar, a beautifully restored castle near Seville where they shot several scenes of Game of Thrones. Location of hotels were good too, easy to get to so you didn't have to drive through some of those difficult narrow one way streets. Only issue was having to pay for parking at some of the hotels, this should have been part of the package. Other than that, it was a great tour!
Nicely conducted trip that covered the imperial capitals and other important places. The guides were excellent , they took care of each of us and provided deep explanations.
The best part of this trip was the optional tours, its a must that no one should miss.
Our tour was excellent, beyond our expectations. The itinerary was well-planned. The places we visited were amazing and the hotels where we stayed were very good. Our guide, Franck Zimmerman, was exceptional; he was very knowledgeable and nice; plus, he kept us informed about everything and made us feel like family. We are looking forward to our next trip with Europamundo. Thank you
