We had awesome assistance every step of the planning and implementation of our trip to Madrid and Barcelona.
The local guides were super. Margit with Walk and eat in Madrid was terrific! Carmen in Madrid was great! Mar in Barcelona was unbelievable! Patricia with YourTripToSpainAndPortugal was so fantastic and available for all our questions before and during the trip!
I would totally recommend going to Spain with the local guides and helpers!

Such a fun activity with the best chef and guide! We were a little apprehensive about who the other "cooks" in the workshop would be, but everyone from many walks of life and countries was courteous and such good company for our cooking and dining experience.

Carmen did not leave out a single site or explanation of all the history surrounding the areas we walked. Never boring, though, and answered our "why" questions. She is a wonderful people person.
