This trip was an incredible experience that I will never forget. My fellow travelers and I were amazed at all the history that these beautiful countries had to offer. Our local tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and I appreciated the balance between guided tours and free time to explore on our own. Our guide through the whole trip was funny and personable, and he offered plenty of insight into the unique cultures of Portugal and Spain. By the time the trip was over, I had fallen in love with everything they had to offer. I would enthusiastically recommend this trip to anyone who wants to make memories and discover the beauty of Portugal and Spain! show less

The Portugal/Spain itinerary is an amazing tour. Starting in the hilly streets of Lisbon was a great way to meet the friendly people of Portugal. Having free time in Lisbon or the option to explore Cascaís/Sintra was a great way to meet the desires of many. Discovering Évora and the Algarve region was like traveling back in time, it was truly awe-inspiring. We were able to add-on an awesome boat tour in Lagos, Portugal thanks to our TD, which was the perfect way to spend the afternoon after visiting Cabo Vicente.

Having two countries included on this tour really gives you great value. Granada is the perfect city for students to 'get lost' and discover the city on their own and Sevilla is so picturesque. The Gibraltar excursion is highly recommended unless you're dying for a full beach day. Costa del Sol and Valencia were the perfect places to discover the Mediterranean. Our paella dinner was the perfect touch before we made our way to Barcelona. Ending the tour with the hustle and bustle of the large city made for yet again an incredible comparison between Portugal and Spain as well as Andalusia and Catalonia. I loved the free-time in Barcelona as there is so much to do and see there. Comparing the Zambra Gypsy Cave experience in Granada with the EF optional of Flamenco in Barcelona, the Zambra Excursion wins hands down! It is more interactive and a better value. Overall, this tour far exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to go back! show less

This experience through Portugal and Spain was so amazing I can hardly believe it. The tour had a perfect balance of free-time and educational experiences. Not only did I expand my knowledge as far as history and culture, I also learned more abut myself as a human. With that being said, everyone must go on this trip so that you can truly see the beauty that the world has to offer. You'll see everything from the most gorgeous beaches in the world to magnificent cathedrals to the coast of Africa. show less

This was my third EF Tour and definitely my favorite! I would do it all over again, and again, and again if I could. My tour director was amazing, the tour guides were informative, and the cities were beautiful. From free time in Nice to a super fun scavenger hunt in Granada, every second of the tour was perfect. show less

Excellent trip for teens and first time visitors. The tour guides were absolutely fantastic, perfect in every way. There are many additional costs if you care to amend so beware of that. Special travel requests are really difficult and end up costing $$$. show less

The entire experience with EF was fantastic. show less

This trip was simply amazing! I loved the places that we visited in Portugal and Spain. The cities were unique and I loved being by the water. I experienced the culture first hand especially when seeing a Fado and two Flamenco shows. Our tour guide was humorous, attentive, caring, knowledgeable, and kind. I'm so happy to have visited these two countries! show less

This was the most amazing trip I’ve ever been on. I got to experience things that I would never have experienced with out EF tours. The tour guide was amazing! He knew so much about the places we were at and had such a kind heart! I wouldn’t have changed anything about this trip!! show less

EF blew it out of the water again! show less

Europe was a wonderful experience I learned a lot and had so much fun. I wish there was less bus riding and more swimming and doing more traditional European stuff like making crepes or watching bull fights. Overall I really enjoyed it. show less
