Celine • traveled in June
We signed up for an English tour and were put on an English/Spanish Tour. The whole bus was Spanish speaking people with only 4 of us English. Our first Tour Guide Alex was horrible. He totally forgot us 4 English speaking Customers. We had to beg and remind him constantly to give us info. When he did we got a very very watered down version. All the other Tour Guides were Great: Mohamed in Morocco and Felipe back in Spain. Alex actually put a Very bad taste in our mouths for Julia travel. The tour itself was Awesome and Most Amazing!

How much free time do I have to explore independently on a coach tour in Spain and Portugal?
Major cities offer 3-4 hours of independent time after morning guided tours. This allows time to explore Lisbon's Alfama Quarter shop on Madrid's main avenues or visit museums at your own pace.
