Spain

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

We were very happy with our trip planning and execution. Our Zicasso travel agent and the other staff at the company were responsive to our needs and easy to communicate with throughout our stay in Spain. All of our arrivals and departures were well coordinated. The hotel facilities were excellent, and their staff friendly and accommodating.

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

Our local guides are always some of the best parts of our trips, and they were all excellent, on time, in the correct meeting place, and enthusiastic.

We especially enjoyed Malaga and Valencia, and if we ever get back to Spain, we will spend more time there.

Our train travel in Spain was excellent. The trains were fast, comfortable, and on time. We will have to do more train travel in the future.

The food and wine throughout was wonderful.

The hotels were excellent and in good locations for learning about the culture and history of each city we visited.

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

We would try to use more private drivers in some locations, rather than local taxi companies. While it may cost more, private drivers are always better than local taxis for picking you up at hotels, airports, and train stations. We had several occasions where it was difficult to find the taxi driver when arriving at a new location. While we always managed to find each other, it wasn't as smooth as having a driver waiting for you at the exit at a new airport/hotel/train station.

We would add more days in Malaga and Valencia. We only got an overview of these cities and their food and culture. We should have booked a couple more days at each.

Travel Company Comments:

Dear Michael, thank you for posting this great review! We are very proud of our work and I am sure the whole team of our local support, guides, transport companies and hotels will be fond of your words. Having Valencia and Málaga on your bucket list for a future trip is a great idea! These locations have a lot to offer and there are off-the-beaten-path areas close by that are highly recommended too! Hope we can work together on a new adventure soon!
