All the appointments were kept on time. The hotel room in Seville had a bad smell, they could not move us to another room until the following day. Tours were good.

the taxi drivers need to tell us at what exit we will find them at each train station. At one point, it took us half an hour to find our driver.

The individual guides in Madrid, Cordoba and Granada were exceptionally good; the small group guide in Seville was quirky and energetic and knew his sites. 3 of 4 hotels and their breakfasts were very, very nice and the 4th was fine. Having drivers between train and plane to hotels was very convenient, though we had some mix up at Cordoba. We enjoyed the train travel and the flexibility of free time and finding our own meals. An error was made in booking our tour to the Prado - we don't know by whom - so we missed it and were disappointed, but overall the experience was very good.

The trip ran very smoothly once set in motion. Transfers always on time or early, courteous and friendly…All hotels very nice. Guides sometimes were not clear on what happens at end of event as sometimes we were left to find own way home.

Well organized and comprehensive trip. Good guides and very nice hotels. Actually better hotels than we usually get for ourselves! But we have to use brochures or internet. Planning another excursion by rail with these folks.
