"Trip of a lifetime - Spain and Portugal"

SpainTop organized a 3 week trip through Spain and Portugal for my wife and me in late September and early October. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

We started in Barcelona (side trip to Montserrát) and worked our way to San Sebastián (and Bilbao), Madrid (and Toledo), Granada, Málaga, Ronda, Sevilla, and then to Lisbon (and Sintra, Casçais, Estoril). SpainTop arranged 4 star accommodations and activities for us at each destination. The hotels were mostly boutique style - smallish and well appointed, with excellent service and very nice rooms in great locations.

Each stop included a private guide for 3-5 hours, longer for the day trip excursions. These proved to be the difference maker. The private guide experience has so many intangible benefits. It allowed us not only to see the sights but to learn about history and culture and people in a more intimate way. The guides were all high integrity people — punctual, professional, thoughtful, and knowledgeable — and most of them were born and raised in the city or region we were visiting. They looked out for us and took their time to ensure we were having a great experience. They offered recommendations on how to spend the rest of our time in the city and places to eat. We never felt rushed or burdensome. Our stupid questions were met with patience. We laughed a lot and learned a lot.

It was clear that SpainTop was staying on top of our travels and reconfirming arrangements with service providers ahead of us as the trip unfolded. With the dozens and dozens of detailed arrangements, pretty much everything came off without a hitch. That said, you can often tell the character of a company in how they deal with things that go wrong. We had one minor hiccup in Sevilla when a service provider failed to arrange a horse carriage ride for us. The provider was incredibly apologetic and offered us a meal in the way of making amends, which we accepted. I emailed SpainTop that evening to make them aware and was surprised the next day when SpainTop had booked another carriage ride for us. This minor incident spoke volumes about SpainTop and the quality of the providers they do business with.

We are eternally grateful to Antonio and team for making this a trip of a lifetime. Thanks SpainTop!

"Best trip to Spain with SpainTop!"

We just got back from a 3 week trip to Spain-my husband and I and another couple. We can't say enough about the planning details that Antonio from SpainTop helped us with. Our trip was flawless-we traveled from the north of Spain to the south and everything went very smoothly. We liked that our trip was unique to what we wanted it to be-busy or laid back, the places we wanted to see, the sites, and free time. All our private guides were very informative and friendly, with the pride and love for their city obvious to all. Drivers were punctual and also very informative. Antonio was available during the planning process, including phone calls if necessary as well as being available during our trip 24/7 if a problem should arise. This was a truly beautiful trip that we will be thinking about for a long time. The only thing I would change was to stay longer. We loved our trip!I HIGHLY recommend SpainTop!

"Professional Individualized service with plenty of laughs and history"

Spaintop provides superior individualized service. There is not enough to say about Antonio and his team. They made me and my family feel right at home in Madrid and our Tapas tour was Fantastic! I will never forget the story about how "Tapas" came to be. The team is fully bilingual, knowledgeable and enthusiastic as they share the history and culture of their beautiful country. They will make you feel right at home. I highly recommend Spaintop without reservation and look forward to their services when I travel throughout Europe. They work with you every step of the way.

"My family had a wonderful time in …"

My family had a wonderful time in Spain, with all arrangements coordinated and facilitated by SpainTop. SpainTop took care of all accommodations, tours, and in-country travel for us. Everything was top notch, from the hotels to the tour guides. SpainTop was fantastic!

"Spaintop made our Family trip the dream …"

Spaintop made our Family trip the dream trip I had hoped it would be. There were 11 people, 5 of whom were children ages 6-14, traveling on a minibus across Southern Spain. Every single meal, hotel, ride, activity, and guide went as scheduled by the fine Spaintop organizers. All pretrip emails were answered quickly and while on the Tour, an emergency number made it easy to reach Antonio, the Spaintop Director, should any questions arise.
I am so happy that I chose Spaintop to help plan my vacation.

"Top service from Spaintop"

We chose Spaintop as the agency to organize our round trip through Andalucia and all the organization was just perfect from beginning to the end. Starting with the initial request and our special requirements the agency came up with a perfect tailor-made package and super friendly and sufficient email correspondence, they always replied very quickly- and were also flexible at a later stage to do some changes for us. Their booking system is a very nice software - easy to navigate and you can see the status of all your booked services until the time of arrival in Spain. Payment process by credit card or bank transfer is also very convenient. We booked our rented car through them as well and had no issues at all with that - we quickly got our car at the Malaga airport through the Avis counter and were lucky to get a brand new car. Spaintop planned our self-drive tour starting from Malaga, over Ronda, Jerez, Sevilla, Cordoba, Granada and Marbella - the beach nights in Barbate were our own request - if you look for a very developed touristic infrastructure with many restaurants, bars and nightclubs Barbate will not be your place - but if you are looking for beautiful beaches and you like to be among Locals and Spanish holidaymakers that place is just perfect. Throughout the trip Spaintop chose lovely Boutique Hotels for us - you just need to tell them your preference and budget and they will do the selection for you - something that booking.com won't do for you -tailor-made service from people who know what they are doing. They also included some activities for us like a super interesting visit to a fighting bull farm in Ronda, a visit to the Horse Riding School in Jerez or a private Sherry tasting tour in a small family owned Bodega - in Seville, Cordoba and Granada they booked private tourguides for us, who all came to the mentioned meeting point on time and all of them were excellent guides. We had vouchers for all activities and hotels that mentioned the meeting time and locations and all was easy to find without any problems. Thumbs up for this great DMC which I can recommend 100% to everybody who is looking for a tailor-made trip to Spain or Portugal. We will for sure also come again with them.

"To Antonio"

To Antonio, Sylvia and the rest of the team.

Thank you for extending outmost patience, professionalism and personalized service during our trip in Spain. You truly made our trip a memorable one. I look forward to seeking your help again in my future trips.

I cant wait to share my experience with your company to my friends travelling in europe and elsewhere around the world :)

"Spaintop are the BEST - THE VERY BEST!"

Antonio and Silvia were keen to understand our needs and once they did they planned the most amazing holiday for us. All our guides were perfect and all suggested things to do were great. They stayed in touch with us through out the journey and that was very important to us as none of us had been to the destinations before.

If you are looking for a professional crew who will take their time to tailor your journeys for you please look no further - Spaintop are the BEST!

"Best personal service at any time"

Best personal service at any time. I had a tour with Antonio of Spaintop and the whole tour was planned very perfect. The hotels where we stayed were fantastic and nearly every day there was a little surprise.

"Superb"

Superb. The organization by Spaintop was very good. My friends and I visited Italy and Spain and we couldn't ask for more. So much more than we expected. Thank you Spaintop! 👍
