Spain

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

This was an outstanding trip with memories that will last a lifetime. Esther and her Spain travel agency were excellent throughout. Esther was in contact with us during our entire trip and responded within a few minutes when we had questions. Her reservations, itinerary recommendations, restaurant suggestions, were uniformly excellent. We considered three companies recommended by Zicasso and chose from the top two. This Spain tour operator was by far the most responsive to our questions and, after we made the selection, continued to me very responsive to every question we had.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

We loved Madrid, its great architecture, the Prado, the lively plazas, tapas bars and activities, even at 11PM. We loved Seville and the Los Gallos flemenco show was a trip highlight. Rhonda and the drive from Seville to Granada was a great surprise. Granada was great and a two hour lunch at the Parador after touring the Alhambra was memorable. The Costa Brava was a big surprise and Hotel Aguablava was wonderful. Barcelona was our favorite; the Alma Barcelona was our favorite hotel (great location); the cooking class was perfect; and the four days to end our trip was the right time budget.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

We changed hotels at the last minute in Figueres and the place we stayed was not the same charm as all the other hotels. It was removed from the town and a bit sterile. The bike tour of Seville was enjoyable but the guide had limited English which was hard to understand and he knew little about the history of the buildings he took us to see. These were minor items in a trip where each day seemed to outdue the previous day.
