Your Tour at a Glance
Tour Activity Level
The activity level for this tour:
You’re a leisurely traveler. You typically take it easy and discover the energy of a new place by people-watching or soaking in the atmosphere at a local café. You can climb at least one flight of stairs, board a coach, and walk unassisted at a relaxed pace for up to 60 minutes without difficulty. You can easily handle altitudes up to 5,000 feet.
You like a balanced approach to travel. Walking two to three miles over the course of a day is no problem for you. You can partake in a two-hour leisurely walking tour, covering up to two miles (with included breaks). You can handle a variety of terrains, from cobblestone streets to moderate hills with relative ease and without assistance. You can climb two flights of stairs with ease. There may be 1 to 2 days on this tour when walking tours can cover 3 to 4 miles over uneven terrain. You can handle altitudes up to 6,000 feet.
You’re an on-the-go traveler. You don’t want to miss a thing, so walking and standing for longer periods of time (2-3 hours) isn’t a big deal. A moderately paced two-and-a-half-hour walking tour, covering several miles, hills, and uneven surfaces, is no problem for you. Walking four miles over the course of a day is very doable, as is climbing into and out of various modes of transportation (tuk-tuk, cable car, zodiac, etc.). You can climb three flights of stairs easily and handle altitudes between 6,000 and 9,000 feet. Expect some longer days balanced with free time to recharge or set out on your own adventure. This level is not a fit for travelers who require mobility assistance devices.
You’re ready to seize the day, whatever it may bring. You lead an active life at home (walking, biking, and half or full day hikes are things you may enjoy) and 10,000 steps a day is normal for you. You can handle longer walking tours (more than 3 hours covering 3+ miles at a steady clip) and activities that involve traversing uneven terrain, steep slopes, standing for periods of time, and varying altitudes and temperatures. You don’t mind being on the go with some early starts, late-nights, and full days. You can handle altitudes of 9,000 feet or higher with little to no issue. This level is not appropriate for travelers who use wheelchairs, walkers, and other mobility assistance devices.

A great tour, maybe a little fast paced. Not much time for shopping until the end. A snafu on the train segment was the fault of the train line, not Collette. Hotels consistently great.

I enjoyed the trip, but it was much too. Hectic for me. too much. Rushing, suitcases out at 7 AM in the morning, too many hours on the bus. too much crammed into 2 weeks . maybe if I was 25, but I'm not. It would have been nice to have more information coming from the tour director. He was a lovely guy, but not much info as we traveled for hours on the bus. The hotels were beautiful, but we weren't there long enough to really enjoy them.. But we did visit so many beautiful places and saw so much in the 2 week trip. Surprised we didn't go to porto in Portugal, though. there were 1 or 2 other well known places that we missed.

Pickups at airports in Barcelona and on return trip from Madeira were not good, could not find drivers. Guides need to carry visible signage to locate them especially in congested areas. Overall tour was pretty good; we visited a lot of nice sites and meant a lot of nice people. Most group meals were pretty good, a little crowded at times. Tour manager made it enjoyable. Pace was busy at times in order to see everything.
Thank you for your review! We look forward to traveling with you again soon.

We think our expert-guided tours of Sagrada Familia, Alhambra, Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba were among the most inspiring and amazing sites we have experienced. In our many years of word travel. Our many experiences throughout this tour combined with the great group of fellow tourists on our bus provided one f or most warding vacations ever.
Thank you for your review! We look forward to traveling with you again soon.

Tour Manager did a great job at coordinating all events and accommodation on the tour. I feel he lacked information on the Spain and Portugal as far as green energy (wind and solar). I asked him the question and he said he didn't know and he would get back to me. He never did. He sent out YouTube videos on Spain . It would of been nice to have a time for follow-up questions on the videos. I think he lacks experience at doing this tour and will improve as he gains more self confidence. One of the 4 star hotels, H10 Puerta de Alcala in Madrid, needs updating. Bath room flooded and had to change room. Everything was worn-out and needed replacement. I maybe would give it a 2 star because of it condition.
Thank you for your review! We look forward to traveling with you again soon.

Our tour Manager Elena was fabulous! She was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and very patient. Most of all, she was entertaining and engaging! She didn't miss a beat!! As for the tour, we would have loved for Collette to have included to include an Olive farm or production tour or Cork tree orchard tour.
Thank you for your review! We look forward to traveling with you again soon.

There were a host of issues that started with upgrading airline tickets and continued through trying to pre-board online. We also never had a single beds but 2 single beds. We also had an incidents involving our carry-on bags which contained vital medication with the tour manager and resulted us missing a dinner and night out. I was never satisfied when talking on the phone or with the lack of response from our tour manger. The countries were beautiful and our fellow travelers were fantastic. It's the reason this is a 2 star and not a 1 star review. I would be glad to explain in greater detail if someone reaches out to me.

Collette’s emergency support is worthless. After my flight home was cancelled Collette told me to talk to the airlines and the airlines said I had to talk to Collette. I ended up rebooking myself and am now fighting with the airlines for a refund of my original flight. Would not recommend using the flight portion of a Collette tour.

Tour of 41 in a bus is too large for one guide to address all individual issues and group meals were not quality. Sites were nice, little free time in some cities, travel lunch stops at highway centers not great. Most hotels nice but a couple service issues. Lot’s tipping expect with each guide and delivery for each city. Had better experience with past Colette tours.

Our tour manager was most helpful, knowledgeable, and entertaining.. Our group of traveling companions was very diverse and fun to be with(don’t end a sentence with a preposition). The accommodations were outstanding! Our Bus driver Mike was very skilled and helped me find our group the first night. Wonderful experience Turning 80 in Portugal.

I would have given 5 stars however our travel (flight) plan was almost inhumane!! Don't do that again...spend a few extra dollars and book times/layovers that are reasonable!! One tour (Myths and Legends of Valencia) was a waste of time and money...I think it was a substitute local tour guide and it was painful! Otherwise it was a MARVELOUS trip!
