Spain Tours in May 2027

Home visits with meals & small business visits were the favorites. The bull farm with dinner, olive grove tour with lunch were fabulous as was lunch at a local families home.

A great way to get an initial exposure to parts of Spain and Portugal. But, it requires a somewhat jam packed schedule to accomplish. Cem did a nice job taking care of us and summarizing (history, culture, food, geography, etc.) the areas we were going through.

Good choice for hotels, food, and hiking tracks. Add-ons possible to the daily tracks. The only problem was the bad weather conditions, but even so, the tour was enjoyable with the right equipment.

This was a fantastic trip, beautiful and varied scenery, great cycling on many off road tracks, lots of opportunities to visit small communities and swim in the sea on the way.

This tour covered a lot of Spain and Portugal from the ocean and rivers to the mountains, and it offered visits to famous spots as well as a meal in home in a small village and to cathedrals to a winery. The tour guide and driver were excellent at pointing out places we should remember and providing comfort for all. The length of this tour allowed us to do more and see more.

Overall a great trip. Like anything, there’s always room for improvement. This is a new offering from Trafalgar and at times, things seemed a little disorganized but I would expect that with a newly offered tour. Food offered had highs and lows (with dinner at Hotel Carmen in Grenada being at the bottom but the view from its rooftop bar made up for it). Really enjoyed the flamenco show dinner. It was one of the best we had. Highlight for us was Costa del Sol - absolutely loved the hotel, the vibe and everything we did in that region. Definitely did not get enough time at Plaza Espana in Seville. What a gem that was! The horse farm was just ok and I honestly think you could eliminate it from the itinerary. I would have liked a day extra in Morocco and/or Lisbon. Especially since the ferry to and from Tangier was rather arduous. The hotel in Lisbon was not in a great area, kind of plain (with incredibly dark rooms;like truly hard to see at times) and it wasn’t near anything so I would suggest finding something closer to old town in the future. We enjoyed our trip and would be open to another Trafalgar tour in the future.
