All the arrangements, from the selection of hotels to transfers to tours, were executed with a high level of professionalism. High compliments are given on the selection of guides for the walking tours, and for the evening events (cooking, flamenco, and tapas) as we traveled for 10 nights to Cordoba, Granada, Sevilla, and Madrid (including Toledo and San Lorenzo del Escorial). All of the tour guides excelled in bringing their cities "alive" and we left each location with a better understanding of the social and cultural history of Andalusia and Madrid. The "Trip Information Document" and the "City Highlights" were extremely helpful as were the links to Totally Spain blog posts for additional information.

We had a FABULOUS time!!! We’ve commented so many times that this trip wouldn’t have been possible without Belen, Olaia, everyone at Totally Spain who were phenomenal to work with. They took care of all of the details: drivers, tour guides, train tickets, and entrances to all museums and attractions…We have raved about them to anyone who will listen, and will continue to do so! We learned so much from the tour guides: Begoña (A Coruña), Chus (Santiago de Compostela), Esther (Madrid), and Laura (Toledo). Also, we’d like to thank Begona for her very thoughtful Rosalia de Castro poem translation. They made each city come alive, and gave us a greater appreciation for each of the cities/regions of Spain! We truly hope to make future trips to Spain and/or Portugal. When we do, Totally Spain will definitely be hearing from us for assistance again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Totally Spain is the best travel company you will ever use. Belen and her team are efficient, knowledgeable, and extremely creditable. They have gained so much respect over the years, simply…because they deserve it. They were incredibly helpful right from starting the booking process, to checking in when we got home. We were contacted while on the trip several times ensuring our needs were being met, and we always felt secure knowing they were there. The drivers and guides they secured were all 10 out of 10, very prompt and definitely knew there stuff. I encourage anyone looking for help with travel to contact Totally Spain, you will never be disappointed just grateful you did. Travel can hard these days so make it easy. Sincerely, Vicky and Noel

We traveled to Córdoba, Granada and Sevilla in October and had the most amazing time thanks to top-notch customer service and attention to detail we received from Belén at Totally Spain. It was a delight dealing with her and everyone involved with Totally Spain. She put together a very thorough itinerary for these magical cities and all we had to do was show up! The tour guides and drivers were absolutely superb, and we really enjoyed their personalities and vast knowledge. No detail was spared. We would use Totally Spain again and we highly recommend! The cost is totally worth it.

The Gold Standard for Spain & Portugal: Our Dream 40th Anniversary with Totally Spain I cannot give Belen and the team at Totally Spain higher marks. We were in a difficult situation just 5 weeks before our 17-day anniversary trip: our previous planner was unreliable, and while we had flights, we had zero itinerary. Belen took our case—despite their 6-week policy—and turned our stress into pure excitement. She asked us to trust her, and she came through BIG TIME! The Logistics: Seamless and Stress-Free As adventurous travelers in our early sixties who have explored the world from Europe to the Holy Land to South America, we knew this trip was too large to "wing it." Highlights included: • Private tours in every major city. • Fun, small group tours, including a cooking class and tapas tours. • Authentic local experiences like a Fado performance and a Flamenco show. Belen handled every detail: • Transport: A perfect mix of high-speed trains (the meals were lovely!) and flights from Porto to Madrid and Seville to Barcelona. Every airport and hotel transfer was punctual and professional. • The "Bible": We received a physical travel pack that became my "bible." It contained every detail in one place, though I appreciated having the digital backup on my iPhone. • Accommodations: Phenomenal, centrally located hotels with spacious rooms and the amazing breakfasts my husband loves. The Guides: The Heart of the Trip The private guides provided by Totally Spain weren't just experts; they became friends. • Lisbon (Pedro): Wonderful, professional, and so knowledgeable on "all things Portugal" that we invited him to lunch just to keep the conversation going! • Porto (Maria): She shared "hidden" facts you won't find in any travel book, making Porto feel extra special. • Madrid (Esther): A fantastic city tour and a brilliant guide through the Royal Palace and the Prado. • Toledo (Adolfo): His deep knowledge of this old city was incredible, and he found us a lunch spot we never would have discovered alone. • Seville (Adriana): Our FAVORITE! Bubbly, warm, and genuine. She helped us capture the perfect photos and even arranged a magical horse and buggy ride back to our hotel. • Barcelona (Montserrat): She was amazing. When we accidentally slept through our Casa Batlló tour the day before, she worked her magic and got us whisked to the front of the line to have our tickets honored. I don't know how she did it! A Journey Tailored to Us Belen ensured we saw every major site without ever waiting in line. The itinerary was packed, but planned in such a relaxing way that we never felt rushed. Belen checked on us frequently via WhatsApp, ensuring everything went off without a hitch. Whether you want a high-end luxury experience or have a specific budget, Totally Spain works to make the trip unique to your tastes. They took the burden of planning off our shoulders and replaced it with a dream adventure we could not have imagined. If you want an amazing trip without hassle or worry, book with Totally Spain! We HIGHLY recommend them!!!!

A truly fantastic experience. Totally Spain is very professional, methodical and totally dependable. Right from tour planning, detailed email & printed instructions, trip suggestions, tickets, event bookings, restaurant and sight seeing guide to such minute details like pick up driver contact details, all done flawlessly. We did not face a single hiccup through our three city trip of Spain. Belen Encinas & her team are simply amazing. They were always available even though we were traveling in the middle of the Christmas holidays. I would definitely recommend Totally Spain for your travel needs. Indeed a 5-star agency. Thanks very much.

This was our second time using Totally Spain and this tour was a lot more complex than our first. This time we had a custom tour and spent 2 weeks in Spain traveling between Barcelona, Zaragoza, San Sebastian and Madrid by train and 2 weeks in Portugal spending time in Porto & Lisbon and driving through the wine regions in between. All our transfers went smoothly and all our hotels were 4-5 stars and in excellent and varied locations. But the reason we used Totally Spain for a second time is their knowledge of the local tours and how they customise these tour choices to best suit your requirements. We did some amazing tours, we like wine and food tours and we visited and tasted a large array of different foods, wines producers and providers at every stop as well as seeing the cultural sightseeing spots. Thank you Belen, you arranged a brilliant holiday program for us.

Belen and her team did a superb designing a custom fitted itinerary with excellent hotels, guides and drivers. We had a fabulous time in Portugal in every respect. The trip was seamless and well thought out. We had an unforgettable journey.
