Well organized small group tour, reasonable good hotels/rooms throughout the trip. Can include few more lunches and dinners in the package to save time looking for the right restaurants to dine.

The tour overall was good. There were a couple of hotels specifically in Coimbra that is definitely not Luxuty Escapes quality and very dissapointing. The Douro valley was a nightlight ! Fado beautiful Porto & Lisbon great. Nice mix between historical tours when you arrive and then free time. The tour is managed by a wholesaler Mapping tours in Spain.

Our original tour was confirmed when we booked it. Then a month before departure Mapping Journeys canceled it. So booked another tour with them but slightly shorter. When greeted by Roxanna we were told that since only 6 were on the tour they wouldn't provide a tour guide, but she said the driver would do the driving and be our tour guide as he spoke very good English. We very shortly found out after 5 hours of driving, with not a word spoken. That he spoke very little English at all. We were effectively dropped off at the hotel and left to find our way about. His tour guide skilled were no existent. No guidance except the main street is over there. 😞 Also the van broke down at one point, due to a flat tyre. He had no tools to change the tyre, so we were left a Burger King for 1 1/2 hours while he sorted it out. We eventually go put on another bus but missed part of our tour that we never got to see. All in all a poorly organized tour.
