A 5-hour guided shore trip from Puerto del Rosario to Corralejo dunes, maritime avenida strolls, and turquoise cove swims for $23.
“Unser Guide hat etwas wirr gesprochen und man wusste am Anfang nicht welche Tour ( große oder kleine Runde) man gebucht hat und was auf einem zukommt.”
A flexible hop-on hop-off double-decker bus through Barcelona’s big sights, with two routes, English audio, and rain-friendly comfort.
“Fun way to see the city in one day in a few hours. Gives you a taste of what’s available so you can go back and focus on things you would like to explore more. You need more then one day to truly explore Barcelona”
Priority access to Sagrada Familia plus a guided look at the Gothic Quarter and Montjuïc, with optional full-day Gaudí stops at Park Güell and La Pedrera.
“Rodriguez was one of the best, most knowledgeable guides I have ever had, you could tell he had a real passion for the city of Barcelona and Catalonia. Thank you Rodriguez, I learned a lot and had a great time.”
Málaga hop-on hop-off buses with English audio, cruise-port stops, and included walking tour and museum entries. Valid 24 hours.
“It is a good introduction to Malaga. Recommend if you are either staying a few days and want to get your bearings or are on a cruise with limited time and want to see the city.”
Cádiz by hop-on hop-off bus. 14 stops, English audio, and a 2-day pass that helps you hit cathedral, markets, and beaches fast from the cruise port.
“We did this coming off the cruise ship. We were made to walk to the bus stop where 100s of people were in line on the side of the road. I think it was about 1.5 hours before we were off and running. The tour was fine. If you want to visit historic sights it…”
A 5-hour Valencia shore excursion that blends Old Town stories, City of Arts exteriors, and a 11th-century tapas paella wine feast.
“Dani was quite the guide! We had so much fun, tasting tapas with great wine in a beautiful setting. Loved València and he made it even more memorable. Not only is he funny and knowledgeable but his English is great.”
Cruise-friendly Cartagena and Murcia shore excursion with port pickup, small group pacing, free craft center admissions, and flexible return options.
“Could not understand 90 percent of what the guide said. Talked too fast even after asking her to speak slower. Accent did not help.”
Private Mallorca shore tour to Valldemossa, Sóller, and the Serra de Tramuntana UNESCO views, with cruise pickup and flexible pacing.
“Our guide Constantine and our driver were both equally amazing. She was very informative and our tour was amazing.”
