“We absolutely loved this trip. We like the size of the group, not too large! The itinerary offers enough free time so we can customize the trip to our taste. The tour guide was excellent. Extremely knowledgeable about the country. We highly recommend Smartours and the Splendid Spain trip.”

“Good value for the money. Saw a lot of Spain, but sometimes in a rushed fashion. Tour guides were excellent and our tour director was professional, thoughtful and easy to talk with.”

“splendid spain did a nice job covering most of the major cities in spain although i feel a 2 night stay in valencia is warranted as the city is vibrant and had lots to do. you get to cover a major site in each city. however, do your homework so you are able to see other sights on your own bucket list during your free time. use of the high speed train was a nice addition. smartours will accommodate any dietary restrictions you may have, just remember to tell them ahead of time so arrangements can be made. don't skip the monserrat excursion, it was breathtaking. the olive oil stop & the winery stop were educational and amazing.”

“Had a good time even with problems that arose Laura dealt with it. For example, upon leaving Barcelona on our final day we waited and waited for our bus! Some of us we very worried that we were going to miss our flights home! Laura had told the bus to be at our hotel by 9:15 pm AM. By 9:30 AM when the bus never showed, Laura called for 5 taxis ( some people had left earlier by taxi) to come at once and pick us up! Hopefully, everybody made their flights! A lot of walking in the city to get to restaurants etc. It was too much so a lot of us took taxis back to the hotel. Wish the Prada Museum was included in the tour. Walked there by myself at the end of the day because I couldn’t leave Madrid without going to the Prado. Stayed less than an hour because I didn’t want to walk back alone in the dark.”

“This was a great tour for a great price. We saw so much and it gives you a taste of the highlights of each of the cities in Spain. The accommodations, tours and meals were excellent. Laura Dobrota, our tour director, was great. She made our trip fun, enjoyable and was accommodating. I would highly recommend this tour if you want to have a taste of Spain. It will not disappoint.”

“I recently took this tour to Spain, I have travelled extensively with your company in addition to referring several people. I was very disappointed with the quality of care and services rendered during this trip. This is the first time water was not available on the tour bus and when it was mentioned water was made available for a charge. With the amount of money spent on this trip, WHY would the clients have to pay for water. Next 2 of the hotels were under construction, one hotel had construction and the bus could not access the area, therefore we had to walk a quarter mile with our carry on bags. The next hotel under construction had tarps up all over the hallways. I dont understand why other hotel arrangements were not made. My roommate is a pescatarian and no options were made available to her forcing her to not eat or go outside to secure food sources. I do not think I will travel with your company again in the near future.”
