Personalized trips to Spain
for independent travelers

Very nice size room, lovely view, great breakfast and a nice bar area. Walkable to many key attractions or a short taxi ride to them.

This was such a nice hotel. Great location, great views and wonderful staff. The facilities - Breakfast area, Patio and beach were amazing. It is one place we would not hesitate to come back to.

Location was close to some key attractions - Cathedral and Royal Alcazar and local dining establishments. A short taxi to others key attractions as well.

Very nice resort. The pool area is very nice, and location to beautiful coastline is a big plus. Room was large, clean with beautiful view. The breakfast was excellent..

Staff was excellent. Room was very small given the amount of luggage we had for our extended vacation. Location was exceptional. Breakfast was in a small lobby - it was adequate but could have been better.

Great location, friendly staff, clean rooms and very good breakfast

Loved the different type of local establishments that we went to

Most fun night we had in a small group experience. First time we did a cooking class and it was som much fun. Would do it again.

The most unique experience you can have if you want to get to know what life is like at a local. This was so much fun.

Coastline is spectacular. The Benagil Cave was unique, but a bit underwhelming - the journey was more scenic that the cave.

The trip to Montserrat was very nice - but the visit to the winery was exceptional.

Very unique experience to visit a nearly 500 year old olive oil estate once owned by Christopher Columbus’ son!

The drive and walk through Sintra was amazing. Cascais and Estoril were also beautiful. Lunch at Sintra was perfect too. Having this as a private tour made it even more special.

The morning walk through Alfama was so much fun

Our driver was great. Provided us with recommendation for our time in Coimbra as well as restaurants with good Fado in Lisbon

The day was perfectly planned. The Douro River Cruise was timed just right (about 1 -1.5 hours on the boat). The going to visit an old, small winery and a newer, larger winery was a perfect mix.

Going to local establishments with our guide made this a fabulous experience

Super cute. Nice courtyard. Comfortable room. Some street noise because it was at street level, but mostly quiet. Easy access to where we wanted to.

Probably the nicest hotel we stayed at. The breakfast was very good. Very central. Easy walking wherever we wanted to go. It was 105 degrees so very happy to have good AC. Beds comfortable.

Very centrally located, metro 1/2 block away. Madrid is really walkable. We only did public transport once. Beds comfortable. The glass bathroom walls were interesting and not especially private. Coffee, fruit and snack food available 24 hours.

This hotel was well located. It was comfortable and had excellent AC which was a pleasant surprise. My only complaint was the only window was on the ceiling so nothing to look at.

It was just us and our guide. We got a very personal experience. She was fabulous. We got quite a lot of information on what it’s like to live in Spain. The food was excellent. She took us into several markets: spice shop, Torrens Vicens and the Mercado Arabe.

The Alhambra is everything it promises. Absolutely amazing. It’s huge! So much to see. The history is incredible. Just beautiful what was built and preserved.

The Mezquita was amazing! The guide was so knowledgeable and gave a great tour. So interesting the history around the building, the different people who expanded it and loved it. The Jewish Quarter was a sad history of how humans treat humans. It’s important to know that history and its impact.

The walk was interesting, lots of cool history. We even looked at some street art. The highlight is the tapas and bars we went to. Who knew a whole place could be dedicated to mushroom tapas. They were so good! All the tapas were so good. The drinks and the history behind them was an all a part of the tour.

This was our least favorite. I did not ask for it, but decided to go ahead with it. It was hot. We were tired. We were the only people with the guide. We just could not muster a lot of enthusiasm for the palace. Just not our thing. Also we had heard most of the history from a previous tour.

One of my favorite tours. Cassie was one of our favorite guides. All the history and knowledge of Madrid, Spain and the paintings. Ninety minutes went by fast! I waited 45 years to go to the Prado to see Velazquez paintings and it met all my expectations. We saw so many famous paintings and artists. No pictures allowed which was a little sad. I did go back the next day to spend more time. And Botin was fabulous! We had the suckling pig and it was melt in your mouth. The cheese cake was so good! Overall just perfect!

The house is amazing. It was very crowded and they move you pretty quickly through it it. It was hard to really look at and take in with that pace. The evening entertainment was painful. A really bad Sinatra singer. We were very hungry and the options at the bar were limited. We left early.

The tapas walk was great! We tried vermut- a bit sweet, had amazing eggplant with honey - I do not even like eggplant, until now, and Catalan crème is to die for. I was stuffed! And I learned a lot about Barcelona.

Stephan was great. We did a short easy hike. He had a lot of information about the monastery and surrounding area. He dropped us off at the museum and gave us some free time. He then took us through the local farmers market where we tasted figs, honey and cheese. All of it delicious. It was just us so we had Stephan’s undivided attention. Fabulous day!

The tour guide was knowledgeable about both spaces. Sagrada Família is exceptional. I could easily have spent more time there. Park Guell also fascinating. My only complaint was not going inside any of the houses. The group was the largest we were in. After some of the smaller tour groups we did later, I would have enjoyed a smaller group more. Despite all that we really enjoyed these spaces.
