Detailed Description
No matter what time of year you visit Spain, you will undoubtedly enjoy yourself immensely; however, Spring is a particularly endearing time to journey to this European paradise and witness its endless wonders. As the days grow longer and warmer, bars and restaurants will begin to open their terraces for al fresco dining and libations amid the warming air. The month of March is an especially great time to visit because it boasts a plethora of cultural events and festivities, including Las Fallas in Valencia, Jerez Flamenco Festival in Andalusia, Barcelona’s Sant Medir Festival, FEMAs in Seville, and Barcelona-Sitges Rally for vintage car lovers. This luxurious 8-day getaway will lead you to a trio of Spanish paradises: Seville, Granada, and Valencia, where you will be delighted by the most exclusive excursions and Spring activities that Spain affords.

The planning experience was wonderful overall. From the initial conversation about what my family was looking for to the final touches to the itinerary, Zicasso's travel expert was engaging, responsive, and helpful.
The accommodations he selected for us exceeded expectations; they were spacious, beautiful, and well-located. The tours/activities suggested were really fun and gave us a sense of the locale in a unique and memorable way that fit our family well. Once we were in-country, communications were easy and helpful. We felt very well cared for.
Payment to our travel company was easy and it was a real pleasure once we were in-country to have all the identified items already paid for. I would definitely book a trip with them again.

Zicasso's travel specialists did a great job for us. They clearly listened to us and curated an experience that was made specifically for us. It checked all of the boxes and more.
Highlights were the local tour guides in each city. It was great to meet and get to know local people, learn so much history, see the architecture (Gaudí in Barcelona and the awesome palaces and cathedrals that we visited), the Montserrat hike, Caminito del Rey (which was absolutely better with a guide), and the Marbella e-bike adventure.
The hotels were wonderful; all unique and all great choices. We came home happy and tired, which is the sign of a good trip for us (since we do not ever sit on beaches or at pools and relax!).

My family and I loved Asturias. We considered it a “once-in-a-lifetime” trip. Zicasso's travel agent planned the perfect outings for us. Our guides were knowledgeable and helpful. Our agent also provided us with very helpful hints and suggestions for restaurants and shops. Both of the hotels he chose were located perfectly and staffed by friendly employees.
