Treasures of Spain and Portugal

We had a wonderful trip to Spain and Portugal with Trafalgar! We saw so many amazing places in two weeks! We were happy we opted for all the Optional Experiences. We were able to see and learn so much more about each location from the tour guides. They were very knowledgeable and spoke passionately about their tours, along with adding their own humor to the stories. Our tour director, Javier, was excellent! He was like our father away from home. He cared for us, watched over us and guided us from beginning to end. He was a fun-loving man who made us laugh all the time! I cannot say enough good things about Javier. He made our trip extra memorable! João was an amazing driver! He kept us safe on the roads, he was timely with pick up and drop offs. Worked so hard to unload our luggages behind the scenes. His driving and parking skills were superb! They made a great team! This is our second tour with Trafalgar and we love this company! We're already booked for our next adventure with Trafalgar!

The Tour Director kept the entire group on the straight and narrow with little fuss - it was almost a military operation! He was also good at suggesting viable alternatives for me as I was suffering from mobility issues. Kudos to !

It was a great itinerary . Saw some beautiful sights . Alberto was fantastic informative tour director . Meet done lifelong friends which is a bonus

The tour of Spain and Portugal was fabulous with good hotels and food and lots of inclusions . Our travel co ordinator and driver were really good with friendly and professional care and great knowledge of the areas we visited. Other local guides were impressive too and the optional experiences were really enjoyable and worth doing. We had enough free time to do a bit of shopping too. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip! This is my 2nd tour with Trafalgar and I was not disappointed. Lovely places , different cultures and cuisines and a friendly and inclusive group made for a most memorable experience.

This was an amazing trip. Our guide Javier was absolutely the BEST and made our trip so fun. We had a great group of people on our tour and the places we saw were unbelievable.

Overall we are happy with the tour, may be 1 day extra in Portugal would have been better. Would have loved to have included Gibraltar in this tour, understand it is covered in another Trafalgar tour. Our tour director ************* and driver Joao were exceptionally good. Javier kept us entertained and engaged. Joao is a very good driver

It was a little fast paced if you chose to do all of the optional tours. We saw so many beautiful structures and interesting places.

A wonderful look at history. The cathedrals we amazing, the wine tour, the scenery was fantastic. The hotels were first rate and the meals, what can I say, they were more than excellent.

A lot of walking and too many old churches.

Looking back on the experience, I can't believe how much we did. We saw so many places and learned so much history and current events from our guide and the local specialists. It was an experience we would not have gotten on our own. Our tour guide was amazing and I would without a doubt take another one of his tours.

The itinerary though jampacked stillgave us plenty free time to do our own exploring of the iconic old quarters of amazing Spanish cities including Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia and Seville as well as the beautiful Portuguese cities of Porto and Lisbon.

The tour director Alberto was wonderful attentive and thorough. Trafalgar look after everything :)

The itinerary was full of great places and experiences. Stacy, our TD and Jose, our driver, are the best team! They were very accommodating.. The dinner experiences were very good also.. some of the hotels were not the best but we understand they were the best choice according to location. We have been traveling with Trafalgar several times and always had a great experience. Cudos for Stacy and Jose.

Way too rushed as not enough time was spent in places. Only managed to see one landmark with local guide, use bathroom facilities, grab a quick lunch & off again. Wish we could have stayed at least 2 days in each place to get the feel for it. Also there were too many optional extras one had to pay for. Didn’t appreciate the fact that in Valencia, a guided tour had to be paid for. And the rest we only saw on the bus. In Barcelona, the only thing we managed to see was Gaudis church on the outside. And an optional extras. We are fit & well, had no trouble walking and would love to explore more, but we chose the wrong tour, where it covered way too much area for a very short time. I wish our agent would have advised us by informing us that it will be very much travelling on the bus & not seeing much. If it wasn’t for , our tour director, who was absolutely brilliant, knowledgeable, extremely helpful, very pleasant in every way, the tour would have been a complete failure. Our driver too was brilliant. We felt very safe with his driving. We did another tour after this one, not with Trafalgar, stayed in places 2&3 nights & got the feel for the place, were not rushed & no extra activities at our cost. If we do another tour with Trafalgar, we will study it well before we sign up.

Well organised Great variety of optional activities

Jake's product knowledge was excellent and the itinerary was very extensive. It was one of the only tours that covered all the most important parts of Spain & Portugal. one would wish to see and experience.

Little busier than I thought it would be! Couple of mornings were a little early! 7:00 AM Luggage out

Trafalgar planned an excellent itinerary filled with amazing places to see and wonderful opportunities to experience the culture. Thank-you!

Enjoyed all aspects of Spain and Portugal. Very clean, friendly locals and very clean.
