Family trip to Spain
Spain
|
Apr 6 - Apr 14, 2023
Marta helped us plan out a family trip to Barcelona and Madrid with a few day trips. She was helpful and patient with us prior to the trip. And we received a detailed plan through their app before we arrived with all the tickets/vouchers and info we would need. We packed a lot into the 9 day itinerary, and it all went very smoothly. It was nice to sit back and enjoy the trip while all the guides and drivers were all where they were supposed to be when they were supposed to be there! And any questions that came up were promptly answered by Marta and her coworkers. All the guides were great.
We weren't sure how the mosaic activity would go over with the kids on the day we arrived in Barcelona (on a red eye). But it turned out to be a relaxing activity that we all enjoyed, and we got some nice souvenirs to boot.
Also, not all of us were thrilled about the hike in the mountains on the way to Segovia, but it turned out to be a highlight of the trip for all.....it was very beautiful.
Activity Reviews
This was a chill activity for the day we arrived to Barcelona on a red-eye. We all enjoyed and got some cool souvenirs to bring home.
Lisa was engaging with the kids and got them interested in the history of the Gothic Quarters. The area is pretty cool.
The area is beautiful. We had a nice hike, a little walk through a coastal town, a boat ride, and then a nice meal on the coast. Vincente and Joaquin were well orchestrated getting us around. It was Easter Sunday, so it was a pretty crowded the day we went.
Toledo was beautiful. We had great weather and it wasn't too busy, so that helped. Our guide Natalia picked us up at the train station and took us for a nice walking tour through the city starting with a nice view from outside the old city. Included some stops for local treats.
Gabrielle was our driver for the day. He was great and kept everything flowing. We were picked up in Madrid and taken to the mountains for a hike with Hugo. We had a nice hike along a mountain river which was highlight for the entire trip. Then on to Segovia for a nice suckling pig lunch and then a city tour with Maria. The ancient aqueduct is pretty cool.
