- AEmily· July 16th, 2023I really liked how we started the trip in the larger cities and had the opportunity to see and spend time in smaller ones. Highlights were definitely Granada, Seville and Porto for me--wish I could have had longer in each. Also enjoyed trying new things (food/drink, experiences) throughout the trip.Show moreTrip date: June 2023Review collected by Explore!
- AAmelia· September 26th, 2023Alhambra. Pedro our guide was excellent. Prior to joining our tour in Barcelona we went to the Mont Serrat Monastery. It would be good to consider this for future tours. We also visited the Gulbenkian museum in Lisbon which should definitely be mentioned in the trip notes.Show moreTrip date: September 2023Review collected by Explore!

- ATerri· October 12th, 2023The Alhambra was a definite highlight. I also enjoyed the stop at the winery in the Penedes and the monastery visit. That day we ate lunch in the lovely small town of Francoli because the monastery restaurant was closed. I'd recommend making that a permanent lunch stop!Show moreTrip date: September 2023Review collected by Explore!
