What people love about Portugal and Spain Tours for Seniors
- Highlights of Spain and Portugal (Summer)
Just about everything was really good. However, not being able to visit the Alhambra was a major disappointment. It was was one of the main reasons for me to go on this tour. I had been looking forward to seeing it for a long time. I hope you adjust future trip information to reflect the fact that there is a good chance it will not be possible to secure tickets for it.
- Treasures of Spain and Portugal (End Madrid)
Well organised, great depth and insight. All hotels were excellent. Trip made all the better by extraordinarily superb tour director and driver. Was a very busy tour without much downtime which suited me definitely not to be recommended to anyone with mobility issues.
- Iberian Explorer
The participants were friendly. Travel Director Jorge was excellent. I just want to be cleared next time of optional tour
