Incredible Portugal and Spain Trip!!

Apr 27 - May 4, 2025

Our trip to Portugal and Spain was incredible!! Marisa perfectly balanced the quality of each experience with the cost -- she found hotels that were both centrally-located and affordable, as well as tours that matched our desired interests in each city. We expressed to Marisa that we wanted to explore the local cuisine in each city, and she did an incredible job finding tours and shows that did exactly that! Marisa was also super responsive during the planning process and made it possible for us to plan this trip with only a few weeks notice. We are so grateful to Marisa for putting together our perfect trip!!
Hotel Reviews
Excellent hotel!! It was centrally located in the shopping district and a quick 5-10 minute walk from most restaurants and the park. It was clean and had a very comfortable bed. Highly recommend!
Excellent hotel!! The location was absolutely perfect for exploring all of Seville. The bed was comfortable (though it was two twin beds pushed together, rather than one queen bed), and the hotel was very clean. Highly recommend!
Beautiful resort!! The hotel was clean, and the bed was super comfortable. The two pools were beautiful and perfect for lounging in the afternoon. The location was perfect -- it was a 15-minute walk to the beach (as most hotels are in Lagos), and a 30-minute walk from the downtown area (which was accessible via these peaceful walkways that connect to the piers and overlook the cliffs). Highly recommend!!

Incredible tour of Sintra and the surrounding area of Lisbon! Our driver was super knowledgeable about both Lisbon and Sintra, and he knew all of the best spots to take us throughout the day. In addition to our tour of Sintra, he took us to a fantastic seafood restaurant for lunch that overlooked the ocean, as well as took us to a nearby beach town to walk around. We were able to see so much more than we anticipated!! Highly recommend this tour!!

Great tour to learn more about Lisbon through a fairly quick walking tour. The tour ended with a short wine and cheese tasting that was lovely as well.

Wonderful dinner and Fado experience!! It was the perfect blend of high-quality Portuguese food with the traditional Fado music experience.

Great way to experience an authentic Flamenco show!

Absolutely amazing tapas tour!! Our guide, Fernando, was super knowledgeable about Seville and made this tour so much fun! We were able to enjoy so many different tapas and wine tastings, as well as explore many restaurants that we otherwise would not have known about. Highly recommend!!
