4-Day Spain Tour: Cordoba, Seville and Granada from Madrid
Tour / Activity
Location: Madrid, Spain
My Review: Absolutely phenomenal. The best way to see Andalucia without any hassle. Our tour guide was excellent. The local guides were great as well except for the Alhambra -which we complained about. The group size was ideal there were 12 people and two children. The 3 star accomodation was sufficient clean, comfortable, pretty and we never once regretted taking that option. The people on our tour who chose the 4 star option seemed pleased with their hotels as well. The food was good some meals were plain, some meals were fancier but both were always delicious and enough to fill us up. There are tours added on if you choose to do them. I would suggest the artistic tour of Seville which includes a guided tour of the Alcazar - definitely worth it. The hotel in Seville 3 star is more in the city. However, the hotel in Granada isn't but it is right beside the Alhambra up on a hill which makes for some nice views. We had done a lot of research prior to going and honestly found this to be the cheapest and easiest option for seeing Andalucia. I would recommend it to anyone who is on a time constraint, money constraint or wants to eliminate the stress of having to organize the tour yourself.

Montserrat Royal Basilica Half-Day Trip from Barcelona
Tour / Activity
Location: Barcelona, Spain
My Review: It was refreshingly different from the rest of Barcelona which is fantastic itself. The views are breathtaking, the monastery beautiful and the choir enjoyable. We also bought some homemade goat cheese and honey from the local people who have stalls set up outside.

Madrid Tapas Night Walking Tour
Tour / Activity
Location: Madrid, Spain
My Review: Absolutely fantastic and definitely worth it! We did it on our first night in Madrid and it was the perfect introduction to Spanish food and culture. We went to spots where there were no tourists and only locals. The flavours were unlike anything we had ever put in our mouths. Had we not done this, we would have never known what to order. Expect to pay an extra 20 Euros for the other places but you will stuffed by the end of it.

Zaanse Schans Windmills, Marken and Volendam Half-Day Trip from Amsterdam
Tour / Activity
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
My Review: I absolutely LOVED this tour. It was, by far, the most enjoyable. It truly felt like we got to experience Dutch culture or at least remnants of what it used to be like. I only wish the tour was longer!!! The cheese was delicious, the clogs were fabulous, and the windmills amazing. I definitely suggest this trip to everyone. It's a must! The tour guide was great too!

Holland in One Day Sightseeing Tour
Tour / Activity
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
My Review: It was enjoyable but not my favourite tour in the Netherlands. I found a lot of the tour was much like your average city. The visit to the flower auction felt like a waste of time as they was no real tour involved there and most of the holding area was empty. We did go in November, i.e., not flower season. However, I did enjoy the Delft pottery, very expensive, and Madurodam, so much fun very much. Keep in mind, the tours save you the trouble of travelling around the country yourself. Good tour guide!

Brussels and Antwerp Day Trip from Amsterdam
Tour / Activity
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
My Review: This is an excellent way to experience Belgium in an economical and time-efficient way. I would suggest it to anyone who is in Amsterdam for a short period of time. The only downside, which is completely understandable, is there isn't enough time to see everything and shop around. The tour guide was great. Don't forget your Belgian chocolate and Belgian waffles!!

Highlights of Amsterdam Sightseeing Cruise
Tour / Activity
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
My Review: I found this to be a perfect beginning to a wonderful trip in Amsterdam. It's beautiful in the evening when all the bridges are lit. I definitely suggest doing this on your first day of arrival, because it's relaxing and enjoyable.

The Amsterdam Dungeon
Tour / Activity
Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
My Review: I thought this was an enjoyable way to learn a little about the Dutch history. I would not suggest it if all you want is to get spooked because with big groups present, it isn't very easy to get the eerie feel. I think it's worth the special price, but not the full price during early hours. I would suggest it for families or young 20-30 somethings. Not so much for an older audience!
