TOTALLY SPAIN CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

Hola Olaia, Just a quick email to thank you very much for all the arrangements you made for us. After a wonderful month in Spain we fly tomorrow to London. We are most appreciative of all you did and the information we received. 

We will be sure to recommend you and your team to our friends back home in Australia. 

Hi Olaia, Quick note to thank you for our fabulous trip and the comprehensive job you did in putting all the information together . We loved all the hotels and the extras we took .

An absolute highlight was the cooking class in Seville. Cooking school ...11 out of 10 ! Flamenco show great and Gayles tapas tour was really good too.
All hotels great ...boutique hotels fantastic and the paradores were very
good too.

Value for trip 11/10.  Briefing notes, maps and overall organisation 11/10 .

The driving was easy and we had no problems at all.

Many thanks. I have new love affair with Spain.

Hi Olaia, We had a great trip and you did a great job of picking hotels and tours for us.

Thanks again

Olaia, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

The itinerary you created for us was perfect. The hotels, cabs, private tours, train tickets and individual city information packets were all great. We truly enjoyed our time in Madrid, Seville, Cadiz and Barcelona and have you to thank for helping us. We traveled around Spain with complete confidence knowing that the cabs would get us to and from the train stations on time. Both Joyce and I enjoyed the high speed train rides between Madrid and Seville as well as the ride from Seville to Barcelona so much that we wonder why anyone would use an airline over the trains. We also enjoyed the ride between Seville and Cadiz on the regular train especially because it was only 2 streets away from the ship our son was on.

Once again, thank you for making our trip to Spain so enjoyable.

Dear Olaia, I just wanted to let you know that we are back home from our vacation and everything went very smoothly. Thank you so much for your work; it was so nice to have the bag of information for each city. We were glad we added Cordoba because the Mezquita there was one of our favorite places on the trip. Your hotel choices were great, too. Southern Spain was beautiful and we had a great time. Thanks again

Dear Olaia, We have just returned from a wonderful vacation with our daughter and son-in-law arranged by you. Thank you for a stress-free time in Barcelona, Madrid and Lisbon. ​ The travel guides in Barcelonal and in Lisbon were on time, friendly, knowledgeable and fun people to be with.

Again, thank you.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful trip.  We so appreciate everything you set up for us.  Everything went smoothly.  The events you set up were just enough for us travelers!

We are delighted to recommend you to our friends.

Thanks again for making our trip so memorable!

Hello Olaia, we had a wonderful time, everything went exceptionally well and no problems, the accommodation was perfect, especially the Casa Rurals in the small villages it gave us a great chance to experience rural Spain. This part of the Camino the Meseta was so different from St.Jean to Burgos, it was very flat with long straight path's for miles but the scenery was breathtaking ,we were so lucky with the weather we never got a drop of rain in the 15 days we were there and last year over the 18 days we had no rain either, my poncho has not got wet yet on the Camino!!!

Thanks very much for all your help in organising our trip, we will be in contact early next year 2016 to arrange the next stage.

All the arrangements went perfectly.  The hotels were ideal and we had a lovely holiday – the weather gods were particularly kind.

Thank you

Wanted to thank you for helping me give my grandson the trip of his life.  He completely enjoyed the 3 futbol games & visiting the cities.  As the futbol game in Sevilla was on a Sat. night, I was able to get tickets for the Sun. bullfight.  In fact, our seats were so close, we felt like we were in the bull ring. 
The flamenco dancers were good. The winery tour was very nice.

The high speed trains were fantastic & on time to the minute.  First Class travel was stress free & I only wished we could have traveled that way home.  Highly recommend Spain's trains. 

Sincere thanks

Olaia, Desde que regresamos a los EE.UU., he pensado mucho en España.  Casi cada noche sueño con ella también...su paisaje, su historia rica y antigua, la pureza de su comida y vino tinto, la amabilidad de su gente y...por supuesto...la vitalidad de la música y los músicos de Andalucía.

A veces estoy triste porque no estoy allá.  Echo de menos de mi segundo país.  Por eso, recuerdo uno o dos de las aventuras que mi hijo y yo hicimos y...como magia...sonrío y / o me río y estoy mejor inmediatamente.

¡Qué asombroso es tu país!

También, quiero agradecerte por tus esfuerzos.  Cada cosa que me dijiste que ocurriría para nosotros pasó.  Por eso, te agradezco.  Nunca, estuvimos demorados.  Nunca, tuvimos problemas con los métodos de transporte, ni con los boletos para las excursiones.  Siempre, nuestros guías de turismo llegó a tiempo.  Siempre, aprendimos mucho. Siempre, estivumos satisfechos con nuestras excursiones y con nuestras habitaciones.

Disfrutamos todas las excursiones y la compañia de todos los guías.  

Yo sé que debo volver algún día, pero no sé cuando.  Sin embargo, te aseguro que cuando regresemos usaremos los servicios de Totally Spain.

Olaia, I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how much we enjoyed our entire Spanish itinerary. 
Every one of the guides were fabulous and so informative, with great personalities, too!!
The transportation was superb and right on time, all the time, making things worry free.
The hotels were great and the locations could not have been better.

Thanks again for you and the teams efforts and making our trip an enjoyable and memorable one.

You can rest assured we will highly recommend Totally Spain to anyone considering a Spanish vacation.

Olaia, I just wanted to let you know that our trip was very successful and we very much appreciated the role that you and Totally Spain played in making that happen.   Our itinerary worked out very well for us.  The hotels were very good. The trains were excellent and even the bus ride, though long, took us through a beautiful part of Spain.   The walking tours were all as expected and the airport transfers worked out well too.  So, all in all, a wonderful trip!

Thanks for helping us organize this trip.  It was memorable in so many ways.  Andalucia is a marvelous region of Spain!

Dear Olaia, This is to thank you and Totally Spain for organising a truly memorable trip to Andalusia and then to Portugal for us. In Spain your expertise and professionalism was very apparent and much appreciated.  Portugal was also very good on the whole.

We liked all the places in our itinerary and all the hotels you booked for us, and had no problems with language or friendly help in each one.  All the hotels were very well located and we could walk just about everywhere we wanted to go.

We will happily recommend Totally Spain to our friends and families.

Our thanks and regards to you and your team.

Hi Olaia, We had a wonderful trip. Everything went seamlessly, from the hotels to the car and train journey. We had not anticipated that the car would be quite as small, but as we just had hand luggage, it was perfect, especially in the narrow streets and tight parking spots.

The hotels were mostly really good. 

Altogether a wonderful trip. The Spanish way of life almost forces one to take a break in the aftenoon. For me, this is a very good thing as I am generally too busy, and really needed this break. Thanks for all you did to organize it for us!

We would not hesitate to recommend Totally Spain to anyone wanting to take a vacation in Spain.

Thanks again

Totally Spain was the perfect agency to take care of my first trip to Spain. Belen was my representative and she was very informative throughout the whole process. The travel packet sent to my home was super detailed, containing not only a map of Spain, but also a map of each city I was visiting with my hotel, the train station, and certain places of interest clearly marked. There was also tons of great information about the city histories and recommendations for tapas bars and restaurants included, as well as information for several museums I'd expressed an interest in visiting. Even the majority of transportation was arranged for me, which saved so much time. Thanks to Totally Spain, I was able to spend time in Madrid, Cordoba, Seville, Malaga, Granada, and Barcelona. I was even able to make a stop in Figueres to enjoy the magnificent Dali Theatre-Museum. Overall, this was an amazing 2 week trip to Spain, and I simply cannot wait for my next visit!

I can't say enough about our recent trip to Spain. Working with Totally Spain was a fantastic experience from the planning stage all the way through to the final day of the trip. Belen put together the perfect independent tour for my husband and myself. We stayed beautiful hotels right in the middle of the historic districts. Everything was so well planned out that we were not stressed at all about where to go, how to get there or what to see. We were provided with maps, a history of the cities we were in, suggestions on what to see and where to eat. The tours that were set up for us were very informative with smaller groups that allowed us to ask questions. We both agree that this is the best trip we have ever taken, and we have traveled quite a bit.

Hello Olaia, I just wanted to let you know that we all got back from our Camino trip safe, and in one piece with the odd blister !! …………it was a pleasure to deal with you and totallyspain, from our arrival at Biarritz airport to the taxi dropping us off at Bilboa airport and everything in between it was just perfect. It is refreshing to have our trip organised in such a professional manner by yourself and for everything to go perfectly as planned. Already I am looking forward to walking another section of the Camino next year and I will be in touch with you in the spring of 2015 to assist us in planning the next stage. Congratulations once again Olaia to you and Totallyspain for a job well done.

Olaia, we have returned home after a perfect trip to northern Spain.  Thanks for all the help.  The itinerary was perfect.  You did a great job and if you ever need a reference here in the USA I would be pleased to provide one.

We loved the cities of northern Spain and could not have been more impressed.  My favorite part of your country.

Just returned from our trip to Portugal and Spain.  I would like to thank you sincerely for arranging a truly spectacular vacation.  We loved the hotels that were chosen for us especially the locations and the private walking tours in Lisbon and Barcelona were out of this world.  

Thanks again

We just returned from a fantastic trip made better by your planning. All of the hotels were very comfortable and well located. The train rides were coordinated perfectly and we had no problems with them whatsoever. The information you provided was extremely helpful and was spot on. We used the maps and information to our best advantage.

Thank you for your help in making our Spain trip a very memorable one.

I am happy to be a reference if you need one. Your services were very helpful to my wife and me. Thank you very much.

Dear Olaia, My family had a wonderful time in Spain this summer. I wanted
to again thank you for making it such an easy and enjoyable trip. The
accommodations were wonderful and we enjoyed all the private tours. What a beautiful country. We are planning on traveling other countries next
summer and hope we are lucky enough to find someone who was as knowledgable and easy to work with. Your help made the vacation stress free.

Olaia, Thank you very much For Everything. We enjoyed Every tour that had Been planned. It was superb. The whole process is ver smooth.
Worth Every penny.

Hi Olaia, We just returned from our trip and I would like to thank you again for all your help in making this a great trip.

Thank you

Thank you, too, for arranging such a wonderful trip for us. Each of the accommodations was quite nice, and the combination of older and newer properties was a plus as well. In addition, your thoughtfulness in helping to determine an overall itinerary was most helpful as were the informational materials you sent along to us. We found so many treasures in the north of Spain: it was wonderful. I'd definitely use your services again and would highly recommend them to others…….Thank you so very much for everything. By the way, do you handle travel arrangements elsewhere, or exclusively in Spain. You are a top-notch professional who goes well above and beyond to do your job well.

Olaia, We returned home last night and I just wanted to let you know that our stay in San Sebastian was wonderful. We also wanted to tell you that Manuel was a great guide on our Rioja trip.

Thanks for all your help. I will be happy to refer our friends to you in the future.

I want to send you a note to express how much we enjoyed our recent vacation. The hotels and transportation you arranged were above expectations. We came away with a real appreciation for the country and the people. I want to particularly acknowledge our guide in Tangier. The half day we spent with him was a high point of our trip

Hello Olaia, I just wanted to email you and let you know that our family really enjoyed our Spain vacation.  Thank you for all of the arrangements.  Everything went smoothly and you did a great job.  If we ever visit Spain again, I will definitely contact you for arrangements.

Thanks again

Dear Olaia, We hardly know where to begin describing the amazing vacation to Spain and Portugal that you planned for us. We shared your name and that of Totally Spain with other travelers for their use in the future, professing that our last two trips to Spain, planned by you, are our favorites and that there will certainly be more in our future. 

Everything that you scheduled went perfectly. The hotels were excellent and made us feel welcome and spoiled. Each hotel provided amazing service and a wonderful breakfast.

The rental car experience was without any problem other than finding our way in Porto. Pam, as our navigator, brought us successfully to our hotel with the cheerful assistance of many warm and friendly Portuguese people along the streets. The hotel in Porto said to us when we arrived, "You made it here from Obidos without a GPS? Remarkable!" 

The business owners and employees in Portugal were incredibly friendly and helpful. 

The examples given above are only a small sample of the wonderful memories that each day provided to us.

This was our 6th trip to Spain and each time we have enjoyed our visit. Our 2010 Northern Spain tour staying in Paradors and traveling by rental car and the 2014 Spain-Portugal tour planned by you are the finest of all vacations we have taken.

We can't thank you enough for your work on our behalf and we will contact you for our next trip to Spain.

Hi Olaia & Belen,  I just wanted to say a big thank you for organising the accommodation for the trip at the end of April! The trip went very well and the excellent accommodation gave it a real 'wow' factor for everyone. The rooms, food and staff were great at Casa Arredondo and Hotel Del Oso. Everyone had a great time.

I'll definietly get in touch again if I am arranging another trip and I have already been recommending totallyspain to family and friends! 

Thanks again for your help
