By Randeelyn & Family | Trip to
Yes!!! Very satisfied!! we’ve been recommending Yukon travel and your services to all our friends since the trip. We plan on enlisting your help for the next trip!
Trip: We loved Spain!!! Such a friendly country. We felt safe at all times and the kid friendly environment made it so much more special.
Air: Flights were great with all companies. Notable mentions, Air north- always good. Air Canada- we loved having the back of plane seats! More room and accessible bathroom. Tap Portugal- loved their ticket/luggage and boarding process. Lufthansa- AMAZING food. Crews on all services were great. Very accommodating with children. Air Canada gave the kids little gift baggies!! Connections were all on time. We had a lot of downtime when we arrived back into Vancouver. We did a day rental at Fairmont and napped.
Accommodations:
- The accent inn was wonderful. Reasonable price spacious room with all the necessities. Shuttle came right to the entrance of inn at the assigned time.
- Lisbon: The apartment was cute. Felt bad staying there with a heavy footed toddler. The stairs to get to the apartment were quite narrow and hard to navigate with all the cardboard- the hallways were being renovated. The park beside was cute but the play structure was unsafe.
- Malaga, Alicante, Madrid & Barcelona: We loved torrox the most!!! A bit scary of a drive, you have to drive basically on a narrow road/cliff. But the house was so peaceful! The garden was beautiful and the pool was refreshing. Alicante!!! Ah.. what a gem! Huge apartment with a cute inclosed yard. Played in the yard a lot and its vicinity to the beach was perfect! Madrid apartment amazing!! We had views of the palace from the kitchen. Super friendly front staff and really helpful with directions and sight seeing. By far one of our favourite places. Also very close to an epic play structure which Theo loved! Lastly Barcelona, a bit of a let down after our stay in Madrid. The hotel was nice and the staff were also very kind, just not as epic as Madrid. Very close to the basilica- which made it a very busy area.
