Spain Explorer Trips

We had a wonderful time on the tour. Organised sections of the tour were great with enough self time to discover the joys of each town/city we stayed Patrizia our tour leader was amazing. Full of local knowledge and caring for everyone on the trip. I have food intolerances and Patrizia ensured that I was included in all tastings and meals. A shout out to our driver Augustine who not only was a brilliant drive navigating the narrow streets but shared his local knowledge with enthusiasm. Whether travelling with family and friends or a solo traveller I highly recommend this trip.

The tour itinerary was excellent, the pacing was well balanced between organised activities such as wine tasting, sherry tasting, olive oil tasting and ham tasting, and free time to allow you to do your own thing. Accommodation was very good and in a couple of cases, exceptional. The tour leader was positive, knowlegable, helpful and tuned in to the needs of individuals on the tour. We never had a bad recommendation from the tour leader.

We are very satisfied with all aspects of our trip. The guides, the driver, the hotels, the sites visited. Unfortunately we had to end it prematurely because of a medical emergency. Would love to have the opportunity to complete the last leg of the trip from Seville to Zaragoza with the grand finale in Barcelona

I loved my Back Roads tour to Northern Spain. Everyday was fabulous! Julia was the most wonderful tour guide. She was knowledgeable, enthusiastic & such fun!! The best tour guide ever! The accomodation was better than I imagined. Very disappointed in our meal at Monasterio de Boltaña. It was inedible! I hate to think what we’d paid for it!!!!!

We really enjoyed this trip through Spain. Sonia was the ultimate tour leader, always looking after our every need and constantly surprising us with unexpected views and special treats! She was there every evening to ensure we tried all the local food and helped us with our selections. We couldn’t have asked for more! The hotels we stayed in were a constant surprise, from convents to castles! The group of 18 were all of a similar age and interest and we all fitted together well. We would highly recommend this tour.

Julia was an exceptional tour leader, her ability to speak Spanish was a fantastic help.. She had a lot of patience and was a great organiser. Antonio the driver was tops and we felt safe in is hands
