Colleen & Angel in Spain - Travelive Reviews

Hello Nico,

Yes, it will be hard to adjust because it was truly an escape. I can't tell you how much we enjoyed ourselves. It was perfect. The convenience of the locations, the beautiful hotels, the transfers were painless. The private tours being on the 2nd morning was perfect timing. We explored a bit the first day and then truly got our bearings during the tours. The guides were all top notch and mixed a bit of history, architecture, local culture with great stories and tips such as using the metro or visiting the Museo de Baile Flamenco over other venues.

Great. We weren't sure about the two-day bus pass in Madrid, but as it turned out, one of our two days was rainy and we used it all day. I could go on and on. So glad that we chose this option on our very first euro trip.

It was so worth it and we learned a lot.

The quality of each segment of the trip, down to the travel itinerary and support were exceptional.

Lastly, your personal assistance at every step was so reassuring. We truly appreciated the wonderful personal touch of surprising us with a bottle of champagne. It was such a touching surprise. We enjoyed!

We will look forward to working with you again.

Thanks so much!

Sincerely,

Colleen & Angel
