What people love about Spain Tours from Barcelona
- Andalucia & Valencia
I had the most fun filled, action packed time touring the south of Spain and I loved every second of it! My guide was knowledgeable and she willingly joined in with the group making good connections with us all! The driver was safe and chatting away with the group and was part of the fun! Our accommodation was outstanding… I was shocked and surprised at the quality of all the hotels we stayed in! The day tours booked were fantastic… visually and intellectually stimulating! I honestly have to give credit to the organisers … They definitely know what they are doing! Thank you So Much for all the Happy Memories you have provided me with! In one word - WOW! Thanks, Jacinta O’Leary, Australia
- Spain in Style (Small Group)
I recently returned from my Discover Spain tour and it was an amazing experience. The booking process was smooth and seamless, and I had nothing but positive interactions with the team. The tour was incredibly well-organized and packed with activities that I likely would have missed if I had been traveling independently. From the beautiful architecture to the local culture, I was able to see and experience so much on this tour. Our tour guides were knowledgeable, friendly and always eager to help, they made the trip even more enjoyable. The tour hit all the highlights and even had some free time built in for us to explore on our own. I particularly enjoyed visiting Madrid and learning about its history and culture, as well as experiencing the lively atmosphere of Barcelona. The meals on the tour were also a highlight, they were delicious and varied. Overall, I had a fantastic time on this tour and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to discover the beauty of Spain.
- North Spain Discovery
Our tour guide, Carlos Sanchez, took our trip to the next level. He knew every popular bar, restaurant, and pincho! He was attentive to each person's individual wants and needs throughout the entire trip. Because of him, this was one of the best guided tours I've ever been on!
