Costs and details
The tour is limited to 10 people. The cost for the 10 day tour will be approximately $3400, payable as a $500 deposit and 2 installments (because it is still more than a year away I will give a firm number closer to the departure date. The cost is more likely to go down somewhat rather than up.) Couples or partners sharing a room receive a discount of $300 ($150 each.) Travel to and from Madrid is not included - the tour begins and ends at the hotel in Madrid. What is included: Hotels, breakfasts, transportation to sites in Spain (trains and/or buses), entry fees and guides. Most meals, snacks, and drinks are not included in order to give participants as much choice as possible.
What to expect
I do my best to make all my tours welcoming and deeply enjoyable for each and every participant. In my experience small groups quickly form a kind of shared 'family' dynamic, where everyone looks out for each other and where the fun is multiplied by the company of the group. I'm very pleased to be told - repeatedly - that my tours are the 'group tours for people who don't love group tours.' This, like all my tours, is one of comfort and enjoyment rather than grand luxury. Accommodations will be in hotels of charm, cleanliness, convenience and good location - I'll post updates as I have them. A special note for this tour: walking will be important and will involve uneven, historic, pavements and cobblestones, and in some cases uphills and downhills. The cities we visit all have taxis and local buses but they will not always be immediately convenient.
