“Cillian was one of the best Tour Guides I've ever had a tour with in Spain! he had lots of knowledge and ideas and was brilliant! The tour along with Cillian and the people and the jokes around the walking trip made it more fun! I highly recommend going with Tour and Friends!”

“Don't forget to pick up a free pair of earphones each when you get on to plug in at your seat which you can then pick your language for the commentary. I would recommend doing a complete circle of the the route first to see everything and then choose where you want to get off and see more of. I would recommend stopping off at stop 2 at the park. We were lucky to be here in the middle of Seville Fair (April Fair) and see the beautiful ladies and gentlemen in flamenco on horse drawn carriages all around the city going to the park. Amazing sights!”

Two Madrid routes on an open-top double-decker with audio commentary, discount vouchers, and a walking tour. Summer night option too.
“It was a lovely comfotable ride, easy to find the start point, the audioguide was good. Sadly though, in Madrid, the tour is not “hop on hop off”. But nevertheless it was a great way to see the sights!”
Hop-on hop-off double decker buses connect Barcelona’s Gaudí sites, beaches, and Montjuïc, with an optional 1-hour catamaran cruise.
“Poorly planed out. Busses stop for excessive time at some stops. Mere seconds at others. No time given to “transfer” between routes as busses drive away. “Live arrivals” time from the app is groesly incorrect. I’ve been at a stop for nearly 20 minutes and the next service has been 2 minutes away all the time.”
Hop on and ride Malaga’s highlights by open-top bus, with multilingual audio, major museum entries, and big viewpoint payoff in one day.
“We shared a unique story and experience with the VR tour. The guide explains the journey of Malaga in an authentic way. It was interactive and fun! The only suggestion for improvement was that one of us had a blurry VR. However this could come down to a lot of factors, and not necessarily the issues of the VR equipment. That aside we had a lot of fun 💮”
