Amazing trip with fabulous people and food! The itinerary was full of beautiful sites with plenty of time to shop for leather goods. Learning the history of such a beautiful country over 2 weeks was unforgettable. Our TD, Pascal, was top notch with helpful hints and did a great job of looking after us. Our group had a special time together and those memories won’t soon fade away. Thank you for a wonderful trip once again!

The process from finding the tour we wanted to take to getting set up for the tour was an easy process. The other reviews we saw gave us the security of using their website to book our trip. The only item we missed which would have given a 5* was the trip did not include see the Alps up close or a train trip. Well maybe next time there may be one and we would definitely take that trip.

Overall a good trip. Spain, undoubtedly has a lot of history. While the architecture and monuments were great, and each of the local guides were very knowledgeable, each one started the history from the very beginning. It started to get old after a while. I expected the seafood at the restaurants along he coast (Valencia, Granada, Costa Del Sol) to be outstanding, but it fell short. Surprised that the hotel we stayed in Madrid did not have kettles in the room for hot water.

On the go most of the time, but that’s the only way to cover as much as we did.
