"Fantastic experience"
30/10/2025
I love the guides, Juan and Adrianna. They worked so hard to keep me safe and comfortable during 12 days of Northern Spain and Portugal. Dealing wiith such a large group of diverse travelers from countries across the globe is not easy and to give explanations in two languages at every point when groups change every so often and to treat each traveler with respect at all times even when they do or say things that are hurtful to others, require strength and fortitude which Adrianna demonstrated every moment. I am saying that Adrianna made this tour successful for everyone, and without her I would have experienced many more obstacles. I am 75, and yes, I am an experienced traveler, be Adrianna anticipated and managed situations as they arose which enabled me to sit back and enjoy Northern Spain and Portugal. She is strong. I was a solo traveler with made friends with other travelers during the 12 days. The other travelers also helped me navigate and make the most of each destination. They cared about me and I cared about them during the time we spent together. These friendship groups often changed as travelers were on slightly different tours. It was often difficult for me to say goodbye because they were so good to me. So the most important parts of the tour was definitely Adrianna and my fellow travelers. The tour itself was Amazing. I have always dreamed of visiting Northern Spain. I don’t know why, but maybe I identify with the independent spirit of the Basque Country. And touring Portugal, Porto, Coimbra, Fátima, Lisbon and its beautiful surrounding towns made my heart happy. I enjoyed every minute. If you are a traveler who likes to complain, there are some things you can complain about like some oh the hotels and the food. I just dealt with and solved any issue as I do on any other trip. If something is offered that I don’t like, I don’t eat it. I don’t complain because it’s my choice. Also, the hotels are a mixed bag. But in life, you get what you pay for. The trip was set at a reasonable place and the hotel rooms are reasonable and some better than that. If you take photographs, at the end of your trip, you will look back and see what a wonderful experience it really was. I am happy that I went on the trip of northern Spain and Portugal. The tour guides, I fellow travelers, the beautiful places, and my attitude traveling made this trip and unforgettable experience. At 75, I am so grateful to have such an experience.

Muy puntuales y organizados, especialmente en España, un poco densa la programación pero es una buena forma de conocer ciudades y aprender historia. Lo mejor de todo las personas con las que compartimos en el tour, una experiencia inolvidable.

Es un tour con un recorrido muy bonito pero realmente sería estupendo si pueden realizar algunos cambios en las ciudades que se duerme que son las que se pueden aprovechar un poco más. Dormir en Bilbao en lugar de Santander, dormir en Zaragoza o San Sebastián en lugar de Pamplona. Por otro lado, destacar la labor de los conductores Luis y José Antonio, ambos de trato amable y con una conducción magistral. Y las excelentes atenciones de las guías, Helena y Adriana, que son estupendas en su trabajo y están pendientes de cada detalle y cada viajero. En general, fue un buen tour aunque siempre hay cosas que se pueden mejorar.

El guía tanto, en España como Portugal, excelente. Los hoteles de muy buena calidad. El autobús durante el tour en España excelente. Sin embargo, durante el tour en Portugal no hubo Wifi durante dos días por una falla.
