Madrid - Didn’t enjoy time in Madrid. Didn’t like the arena tour, seems too specific of an interest to have on a general audience tour. Needs to be optional. Need more time in the square/plaza. The Egyptian temple was hugely underwhelming and disappointing. Should have had an option for Toledo as it’s so significant. We didn’t like the hotel. Praga was a terrible hotel and not clean. We found nose boogers in the shower, the room smelled like cigarettes. Horrible.
Barcelona- Hotel was nice but way too far away from the city centre. Rooms and bathrooms not ideal for friends/family, due to the glass doors and open plan bathroom. City tour of Barcelona was good, Olga. Good amount of free time. Segranda Familia tour was way too long due to the change between English and Spanish. It took up way too much time, people were checking out. It wasted a huge amount of free time.
Peñíscola - Needed to tell us where bathrooms are, as We spent a long time searching. Slightly more free time here would have been nice.
Valencia - Not enough time to do anything. Time for lunch was too short before the tour. We barely had any time to eat. The paella included dinner was not good. Terrible. We were really upset that the food was rubbish and we didn’t have enough time. However the city tour was really good. We wanted to go to one of the museums since they have the new museum village.
Alicante - Not long enough. Also didn’t like the ruin palace, wasn’t very interesting
Caravaca de la Cruz - Not needed, very boring and too specific to Catholicism. Seems unfair to include this for those who are not religious.
Grenada - arrived and didn’t like the cod for the included dinner but the soup was great. Alehambra was incredible and the tour guide Alejandro was great too. Free time amount was good and we enjoyed our night.
Malaga - More time needed there, way too short.
Marbella - Loved it. There was enough time.
Ronda - had enough time and didn’t like the sketchy beginning part.
Seville - the dinner buffet was great, we could get what we wanted. Menu on the app didn’t show buffet only pork medallions, could update this. The bus tour was stupid because we couldn’t see out the back due to the vending machine blocking our view on the right. The tour guide Pilar was too slow and we feel we didn’t actually see much of the city. The river tour was boring, we saw everything on the bus tour.
Our free time was a good amount.
Cordoba - really interesting tour of the cathedral, Fatima the guide was great and made it SO interesting!
Fatima - Cordoba was great.
Beyoncé/ Pilar- Seville city tour not great. Very slow, same information multiple times. Asked us if we were bored when we wanted to explore as she talked. It was weird.
