Spain Tours in December 2025

The tour, the tour manager, the accommodations were all great! I just wish that it had lasted longer. This was our 6th time to travel with Collette, and we were very pleased.

Although I travelled from quite far away, (Vancouver Island, Canada), I was so very pleased at the kindness and friendly attitude of everyone in the group. I was the eldest in the group (73 years young), but had absolutely no trouble keeping up. I would say this trip is not for the feint of heart; even at the end of October/early November the days were quite hot (although the evening temps were perfect). We experienced no bugs and no rain throughout the week. Definitely expect long days and some arduous climbs as well as steep descents. Hiking poles were essential. It was occasionally windy and cool at each summit but I was able to hike in shorts all week. I’m quite used to climbing mountains and found this itinerary to be just perfect. The accommodation was basic but comfortable; the food was good but at times limited for me as a vegetarian. Breakfasts outside were fantastic and the triple-decker sandwiches that José made for us were to die for. You definitely won’t be disappointed.

Was an amazing trip with an amazing trip manager, everything about the trip was really great. I seriously have no complaints about it. If I could change something it would be to disclose the price of the FTA’s before the trip starts just for people to budget abit better but they were so worth it. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic itinerary, we had so many amazing experiences, we learnt a lot about the culture, history and people. We experienced many things that we would not have if we had travelled alone. Our guide was passionate and entertaining. He was a font of knowledge and added to our enjoyment I have not felt as relaxed travelling solo, knowing that all the transport, porterage etc was taken care of allowed me to enjoy the experience without the stress.

Who would have thought (without this trip) that there could be such astonishingly lively, unspoiled and (for the most part) unfrequented mountain terrain - and such beautiful and varied walking - just a stone's throw from the infamous high-rise resort of Benidorm?

Could not fault our second Holliday with Explore. It was so good that within 12 hours of returning home we booked our third trip for the Spring next year and are planning at least one more for 2026.
