Great tour! Everything was very fast but was expected. Would have liked to stay longer in Toledo and Cordova. Will have to go back some day. Guide and driver kept us comfortable. We chose the average hotels and they were great. Thought we would be the only ones to save money but more than half chose the economical hotels. The Granada hotel was my favorite.

I love this tour, it's packed with so much activities. It's a bigger tour and had a few bumps with other fellow tourists. There were some problem with the seating arrangements inside the bus and passengers were arguing. My recommendation would be from the on set, the guide should tell the passengers regarding seating arrangements. Our guide did her best to calm everyone down. Overall, worth the money you spent, made a few friends and visited a lot of places. The local guide Sergio who took us on our Granada tour was awesome. Very knowledgeable and very accommodating with his answers to our questions. I also love the Toledo tour, thought it was an awesome place to visit again.

Our trip was really full on and extremely exciting so much history and not forgetting the architecture in Seville, Madrid - amazingly incredible and wonderful. So much to see and not enough time. You cannot go to Seville and not check out the flamingo dance. I have enjoyed it so much i wanted more. Have to go again ...Our tour guide was extremely helpful and fully informative on every bit of the tour, she was such fun too! I really enjoy the tour and had an extremely great time. I would highly recommend it.

This tour is really value for money and you really get to see a lot within 4 days. There were optional add ons as well for those who wanted to see more. My only gripe are the hotels which were advertised as 4 stars but are really 2 at best. Do yourself a favour and upgrade!

Itinerary covered a lot of ground and our guide Grace did a good job. Driver Antonio? was very good_br/_ The hotel in Seville was Melia Lebreros. Quite OK_br/_ The second hotel in Granada Melia Granada fell short in the buffet dinner. Empty trays were not refilled and not much food for vegetarians. Long queues at Coffee machines require during breakfast. _br/_ Word of warning is the bus drop off point upon return to Madrid was not the same as pick up point and there was no prior notice of this. Caused quite a lot of confusion and stress for those of us who are not familiar with the city and had to scramble to find our way to our hotel

Great trip, sometimes quite in a hurry, some waste of too much time visiting touristic craft factories on place of going visiting important touristic spots.local guides were great and knowledgeable, but again too much information in such_br/_ short time....hotels were good, even the cheaper option....quite few optionals that were disappointing...like river boat in Seville...or gipsy dance,if you saw also the flamenco ballet at day before..in general it was good, considering you don't no worry w bookings, transport...for short period of time ...good to have an idea..and plan to go back one day...

This tour was very well organized and we got to see the cathedral in Córdoba and the Alhambra in Granada. Both must see places. The only negative was the restaurant stop off he highway on the way back this should be removed from the itinerary.

Never having taken a bus tour before I was a bit dubious, but we really enjoyed it. It was nice to not to plan every last detail. We didn't have a lot of standing around waiting on others time. We saw some amazing places, many I doubt I would have otherwise seen.

From what I can tell, the four star hotels and their breakfast and dinner buffets were quite above the three star hotels for those who stayed there. If you don't rent a car and drive it all, this is the best way to go, everything including getting tickets to palaces, etc., is done for you. The guide, Grace, was great! I would pay more to be picked up from my hotel and delivered to my hotel. This was annoying. We were dumped down on the Grand Via, with four bags of luggage to try to make it to our hotel after the trip. After such great service on the trip, this was annoying. I would do this trip again, it was great, though my wife thinks there was not enough time for shopping. You can't do it all.

It was pretty good. The guide and the driver are professional and competent. It would have deserved 4.5 had we not been told to leave the coach at the end of the tour in the middle of a busy street that we have no idea of our whereabout. The guide made no explanation of the rationale and lots of members of the tour were very unhappy. Don't know if It was the decision by Julia Travels or the guide. We were fortunate that we could make our way back to the hotel but I would expect a lot others took a lot more troubles before succeeding. I think Viator should look into the matter and give us a good explanation.

Nice tour with a good group if people. Visited most of the places in southern Spain that we hoped to see. Our guide Marisa and driver Jose did a wonderful job, as did the local guides, Pablo, and the 2 young ladies.

An amazing 4 days, the tour guide was professional, the driver was wonderful, made us feel totally safe . The choice of hotels in the deluxe category outdid our expectations. The included meals were great with lots of choices. We saw so much in such a short time with experienced local guides whose knowledge was outstanding. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an overview of these places.

Lots to see, weather was amazing. Learned a lot about the area. Guide was great. Would recommend this for anyone interested in seeing old cities. Being comfortable shoes, lots of walking tours.
Review by: Lili, July 2017
It was my very first time doing this and it was great. The hotels exceeded our expectations. The bus was nice, clean and very comfy. The only thing, is that I was quickly over seeing empty castles and gardens. Wish some tours would be focus on other areas of the cities. However, I would totally recommend this to anyone and I would totally do it again! Very Satisfied.

Excellent way to see these great Spanish cities.
Review by: Evelyn B, July 2017
The tour was excellent. Melia Hotels are lovely. Great swimming pool in Seville but the food wasn't very good. No pool in Granada, but the food was delicious. The bus was comfortable. I would have liked a bathroom on the bus. Choice of attractions was very good and the guides were all fine. Balance between structured and free time was perfect. Our party of four two senior citizens and two young women had a wonderful time.
