But you can't take the marketing out of the girl. I told our tour operator and friend, Rosa, I'd write a testimonial for her.
You know, anyone can plan a tour of Spain. You go on Google Flights and look for fares, you check booking.com and find a hotel, you go to the city Visitor Information Center, and BAM! you’re touring Spain. But if you’re like me and my husband, you want more. You want to tour, but you don’t want to be tourists. You want to be travelers; you want to be locals.
Spain is different from any other country in Europe. They dance to a different rhythm, and from landing to take off, it’s important to adjust to that rhythm. There are myriad things to do and see, but there’s no way you can do them all (save some for your next visit). In Spain, you need time to drink in the traditions, the legends, the history, and the Agua de Valencia!
You may have a terrific tour of the Mezquita in Córdoba, but you haven’t really toured Córdoba until you sit at the Gran Bar and watch the world go by on the Plaza de las Tendillas, or share a glass of Cava overlooking the Mosque at sunset. You may spend a day tasting every sherry in Jerez, but you haven’t really tasted Jerez until you stroll through the fresh market or witness a spontaneous Flamenco performance on the Plaza del Arenal. You could get lost in the halls and gardens of the Alhambra, but a trip to Granada isn’t complete without getting lost on the back streets shopping for Fajalauza pottery.

We highly (and happily) recommend contacting Rosa and Just Explore to plan your trip to Spain.
It sounds more like a marketing brochure, but it's all true. Shrug. So, if you ever want to go to Spain - give Rosa a call.
We're winding down the days to home. The laundry's done, we still have a little food in the fridge we need to eat and a bottle of wine we need to drink, and our suitcases are spread open on the floor. One more museum, one more dinner reservation. Sigh.
