What people love about Coach / Bus Tours from Madrid
- Highlights of Spain & Portugal
Everything was as described by expat explore. Tour leader was exceptional with his knowledge of the tour, the countries, culture, cuisine, but also his attitude to the tour members was attentive, and always polite and with a smile. Food and accommodation was good although it was a budget tour.
- Spain, Morocco and Portugal (End Madrid)
We have done two tours, and loved them both. They were so organized, and it's really nice to just sit back, listen, and learn. Both tours were excellent and good value. Everything is done for you. All you have to do is get up in the morning to start another exciting day!
- Great Iberian Route
It’s excellent and value for money. Tour guide is friendly and helpful and responsible. Highly recommended to other. Hope you can maintain this good standard in future too
