Review: Luxury Vacation To Italy & Spain, Barcelona, Venice, Florence, Rome, Madrid, Sagrada de Familia, Cooking Course

Well, this could be a book but I will pick a few things that we will never forget. All of Rome was wonderful and so much information it's kind of hard to even put into words. The catacombs tour was probably the favorite of the family because you were able to see the excavations in the city and the Basilica of San Clemente to see the layers of city built upon city.

Florence - The cooking class we took was by far the most memorable part of the whole trip, Ingrid was so engaging, the food we cooked was amazing, and the feeling of being truly in Italy and part of the culture was really special. The wine tour in Tuscany was also so informative and special.

Venice - This was my favorite city mostly because of our guide who really made it special. We could have never managed that city without her expertise. Her suggestions of where to eat and what to see and the timing of everything (it was so hot) was spot on. She rearranged our schedule with her to accommodate the fact that it was so hot and it truly made all the difference.

Barcelona - Sagrada Familia - the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. Our guide was actually Catholic and knew his Bible so well that his information and tour was unbelievable.

Madrid - the Palace, kind of like touring the White House but the decorations were so amazing and opulent, it was beautiful.
