What people love about Andalucia Tours from Madrid
- Andalusia with Costa del Sol & Toledo
There was some confusion about the meeting place in Madrid, Tourradar called it the Courtyard by Marriott Princesa Hotel which doesn't exist there anymore. Its now the Princesa Plaza Hotel which it does state in the Julia Travel itinerary so they need to align themselves on this issue. Other than that the tour was a lot of fun and Marina, our tour guide, was so amazing and extremely patient but always had a smile on her face and Paco our driver was also amazing. If there was anything critical to say it was the meals at a couple of the stops left us disappointed, especially in Sevilla. We expected something far better from the beautiful Melia Hotel than pan fried dry chicken and potato patties the first night and regular pasta the second, hardly traditional Spanish cuisine! Very disappointing but a beautiful hotel none the less. The hotel in Granada left us a little disappointed as well, on kind of a trashy street in the downtown area with few restaurants nearby, We left wake up calls at all the hotels we stayed at and only received one in four requests even though we went directly to the front desk, in each case, to request them and watched as they either wrote it in their schedule or added it in their system. Was not happy about this as we had early morning starts each day of the tour. The locations were all amazing and the guides we met along the way were very good all around but there should be some alternate arrangements that can be made to accomodate some of the older clients as far as the amount of walking they had to do, maybe have some golf carts there to assist them through the long streches from point A to point B, especially in the case of the L'Hambra where it is a fair distance down a hill and then up one from the bus drop off to the starting point on the tour. Overall a good tour and I would book another through Tourradar but my advice would be to make inquiries into the hotels you're staying at and not be satisfied with the claim that they will be "similar" to the one you start in, they're not! I would also keep your tour short, you have a variety of nationalities on the bus and they all have their own ideas of what personal space is or is not and some have no idea what the meaning of lining up for something is all about.....I guess its a cultural thing maybe?
My husband, adult son, and I joined the tour in Granada and we had an excellent group and guide! The only issue we had was the fact that we had to do a lot of walking with our luggage as opposed to having that taken care of. There was also an issue with the bus driver Going in to Granada which delayed the group and we almost missed our Alhambra tour. But Thiago took care of us and straightened everything out. We also loved the final meal in Barcelona where we cooked our own dinner with a shirt f but Tiago took care of us and straightened everything out. We also loved the final meal in Barcelona where we cooked our own dinner with a chef from Agency about trains refugees so that they can be successful cooks in Spain. Such a great cause not to mention the food was amazing

Lalo has a wonderful way of gathering everyone together by calling us "familia". It is an example of his warm friendly style, he never nags, never looses his cool, he is the best group leader I have ever encountered.
