Excellent tour from start to finish despite a rainy day! Our tour guide Alberto was fantastic. Very informative and interesting with really detailed local knowledge of an area of Spain we love. This was a great quality tour that took us to a couple of places we wouldn’t otherwise have seen.

Very interesting visit to two coastal villages, both with attractive old towns, but in contrasting styles. Guided tour provided usefull information on both. Lunch was in our free time with free choice as to where to eat, but all of party chose to eat at cafe we were to by our guide as a result of its quality and attractiveness. Our guide was exellent.
