I recently went on the 15-day tour from Madrid to Barcelona, and it was truly amazing! Each city had its own unique charm. The guided visits, especially to the Alhambra and Sagrada Familia, were highlights for me. The hotels were top-notch, and having breakfast included was a plus. The welcome and farewell dinners made us feel special. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
