Rail Tour to Seville by AVE Train
Tour / Activity
My Rating: 
Location: Madrid, Spain
My Review: This was a great tour. We had to catch the train at 6.30 am in Madrid and arrived at Seville at 9.15 and went to a hotel near the station for the start of the tour. Our tour guide was very good and we enjoyed walking through the Jewish quarter (Santa Cruz). We had a tour through the Cathedral and then surprisingly the tour ended. We were stranded in the middle of Seville at lunchtime with no idea where we were but managed to eventually find a tourist information centre (not an easy task) and get a map. We had wanted to visit the Royal Palace (Real Alcazar) which we did. At the end of our tour our guide gave us various options to fill in the rest of the day but didn't mention the Alcazar which was on our wish list. He also pointed in the general direction of how to get to various places like the river but that proved not to be easy without a map. Our train back to Seville did not leave until 7.15 pm so we had plenty of free time in Seville but without a map were unsure of how best to use that time.

Montserrat and Cava Trail Small Group Day Trip from Barcelona
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Barcelona, Spain
My Review: Montserrat was just amazing and we had a good amount of time there (although you could easily spend a whole day there). The tour at Pares Bolta, the winery, was extremely well run and although I am normally a non-wine drinker I enjoyed the cava.

Tapas Evening Walking Tour of Barcelona
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Barcelona, Spain
My Review: Our tour guide Sonia was very knowledgable and the food was fantastic - it exceeded our expectations. It was teeming with rain for the whole tour but the warmth of our guide and the others on the tour made the rain insignificant.

Barcelona Hop-on Hop Off Tour: North to South Route
Tour / Activity
My Rating:
Location: Barcelona, Spain
My Review: The hop-on hop off bus is a fantastic way to see Barcelona. We had booked this for two days and to do both the red and blue routes you really need two days. However, if I did this tour again I wouldn't book in advance. Tickets can be purchased almost everywhere and availability is well signposted. We found it very hard to find the centre where we had to collect our tickets which was underground in a plaza in the middle of cross roads (not underneath a store which was closed when we were there). It would be more convenient to buy tickets where you happened to be rather than have to find the location of the centre to collect them.
