What people love about Active Tours in Spain
- Catalunya North Gravel Bikepacking Adventure
The route was frankly ridiculous, way to long ,the way I made it was by not doing gravel, but state roads,not what I wanted but the only way to get from hotel to hotel. Also I did climb the 1500meter mountain between France and Spain, it was a challenge and you mentioning age group to 90 years old is deceiving. But I had a challenging great time,just what I signed up for
- Walking the Picos de Europa
The Pico's de Europa tour was amazing due to our two fantastic guides and the hotel staff who all were great, welcoming and going out if their way to make sure your experience was outstanding. We were lucky to have Nacho and a new guide Hairo join us in our day hikes, both have a love for the outdoors and love for Asturias culture and history. I loved each day of the tour I was lucky to stay an extra day that the hotel owner Jim helped with my solo hike route. Highly recommended to all
- "Camino de Santiago" (Way of St James): French Way from Sarria -100 km
I enjoyed the Camino de Santiago tour with Tourradar. The baggage collection was always on time and 4 out of the 5 hotels booked were amazing. Definitely would recommend
