- HWHarry· June 16th, 2025As a very senior couple having traveled the world many times and Spain often, this 8 day tour would be amongst our top five. We were the only non-Spanish speaking people amongst a dozen from South America. We were rarely left out and our guide's English was good, thoughtful and interesting Our driver was five star. A little gathering organised for a celebration of a big O wedding anniversary was off the regular plan and well managed. The visit to the mussel farm was a highlight extra and should not be missed even if you don't like scrumptious shell fish. On this tour there is so much beauty in the history and architecture of the cathedrals and ancient centres for visiting and admiring. Such art and atmosphere is priceless where as shopping can be done online. Not our first time with Tourradar. We'll join them again for sure.Show moreTrip date: June 2025
- Amy· June 3rd, 2025Great tour. I am impressed with all I saw and all of the experiences the tour offered. Our guide Vanessa was wonderful. She is passionate about her job and was great coordinating all the aspects of the tour. I felt I received great value. I would definitely consider another tour with your company.Show moreTrip date: May 2025
- EBEdmundo Gerardo· June 1st, 2025Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishVery good in general but in each city they are adding passengers to occupy the seats of the coach that are already occupied. There is a lack of logistics in this operation, in Zaragoza we had to wait more than an hour for the other group coming from Madrid to get everyone together.Show moreTrip date: May 2025
- MLMarcia· May 5th, 2025The tour exceeded my expectations. The guide Helena & driver Sergio were amazing, both of them always smiling & very happy & available to help all of our group who were Spanish and English. We visited a lot of places and had such a fun time with people from all over the world. I just loved it. The only criticism I would have is with regards Oviero. This city is not a good stop, there are better cities to visit & the hotel, Iberik Santo Domingo Plaza is definately not a 4*. The city & hotel are just not up to the standard of all the other places you offer. I would suggest looking for a different city & hotel.Show moreTrip date: April 2025

- SMSiqi· August 23rd, 2022We were expecting tour guides with more explanation of each attraction city but turned out our "guide" was more of a driver / trip coordinator (he's nice tho). Had bilingual tour guides in 2 spots during the 8 day trip - wish there could have been more.Show moreVPT Tours commented on this reviewDear Siqui Mao, We really appreaciate your feedback.

Ali
Asked on May 31st, 2025Is it possible to hook some of your trips together? I would like to spend 3 weeks in Portugal and 5 weeks in Spain in September and October. I could not rent a car and cannot take luggage across train tracks. I am interested in staying as a single in superior hotels where I do not have to climb stairs. History, museums, churches, operas and significant geographic points are my interests. I do not mind being on my own.

Asked on June 15th, 2024If the group size of the desired trip is small (< 12 people), will a guide still accompany the group? I read a review comment on Tour Radar about it and wanted confirmation on the guide. We do not speak Spanish and would be interested in English speaking guide.

Traveler•Written June 2024Is it possible for us to not continue with the group on the last day of the tour? We can finish in Porto, won't continue to Madrid on last day.
- VPT ToursOperator•Written June 2024
At the moment there are 7 people booked, but we can't know how many more people will join the tour between now and the day of departure. In case we do not reach the minimum number of passengers to go with a guide, the tour will be accompanied by an experienced driver who will act as a driver and guide in English and Spanish. The visits included in the tour will be done with a local guide.
