Absolutely enjoyed the Great Iberian Cities tour. The Tour Director, was excellent and no doubt, added to our groups enjoyment on this tour!
We were initially scheduled to start the tour stay at the Exe Cristal Palace Hotel, which appeared comfortable to accommodate (3 adults). The hotel was changed to the Barcelona Sants Hotel at last minute. Myself and two other friends had decided to share accommodations on this tour. Unfortunately, the Barcelona Sants hotel room was small, and could not accommodate three separate twin beds, with room in between each of them. Our luggage did not fit (no place to put it and/or open properly). Washroom area was open-concept, which did not provide much privacy. We had to pay an additional $200 each to upgrade to a larger room. This was outside of what we budgeted. A family (2parents/child), may have worked; however; for (3) adult women, it was definitely not suitable. I would suggest Trafalgar Tours consider the clients booking/accommodations prior to changing venues (especially, if changing tour hotels), to ensure no issues arise for the travellers who booked/paid for the tour already. It creates a lot of stress for the traveller(s), with sudden changes that do not take into account their room accommodation needs.
