Spain & Portugal Luxury Travel Review: Barcelona, Girona, Figueres, Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Cordoba, Lisbon, Flamenco, 2-Week Trip

My wife and I had a wonderful two week trip to Spain and Portugal. This was our first time in either country and we decided that we wanted to experience a variety of cities to get a flavor of the countries, see culture, history, and enjoy ourselves. We worked closely with Patricia at the travel agency both in developing the itinerary, figuring out the best places to go, and in figuring out the logistics around everything you need to do to make a 2 week, multiple city trip as seamless as possible.
Patricia and the agency were terrific. We wanted to develop a broad itinerary with a combination of staying in major cities, having the possibility for day trips, reducing travel time as much as possible, and having exposure to different cultural backgrounds. We visited Barcelona (with a day trip to Girona/Figuera), Madrid (day trip to Toledo), Seville (day trip to Cordoba) and Lisbon. Patricia and team had outstanding local guides lined up in each of these places - tailored to the subject of the particular tour. We saw Dali - we had a Dali expert. We went ebiking, we had the owner of a bike shop who runs a tour business as well. We did Flamenco and tapas in Seville - we had a multi-talented Flamenco dancer who helped us understand the background of the city and its connection to dance and music. The guide choices were terrific.
Patricia and team also were very strong logistically. In the process to set the itinerary, Patricia offered hotel choices and when I wanted something a bit different in some places, she had terrific additional options as well. Travel & transfers were all top notch, smooth, and well coordinated. She also helped reservations for dining and recommendations for places as well. When, late in the process, we wanted to add two friends to part of our trip, the process of adding them was seamless and easy. And responsiveness was unbelievable. She and her team were always available via WhatsApp (and responded immediately) to any questions. I always felt that if we needed anything, Patricia and her team were there to help.
