Why choose a guided tour to experience Spain

For most people, the opportunity to take a holiday abroad doesn’t come around too often – so when it does, you want to know that you’re getting the most out of your time and money. A guided tour in Spain is the best way to experience all the top attractions, and cross each and every must-see sight off your bucket list.

There’s plenty more that makes a guided tour in Spain a worthwhile experience. Let’s take a look.

Unique, authentic attractions

It’s easy to navigate tourist hotspots by yourself – they’re simple to find online, and travel to and from each location tends to be accessible and affordable. But, travellers looking for a more unique, authentic Spanish experience may have a tougher time uncovering those top hidden gems to put on their itinerary.

This is where a guided tour can come in handy. Not only will your guide accompany you to world-famous monuments, they’re also likely to stop off at some lesser-known locations along the way – from local cafes to secret wine bars, secluded beaches, and nature reserves. This is ultimately what sets a guided tour apart from self-guided travel, as you can really broaden your horizons and have those experiences that you wouldn’t usually be able to on your own.

Local knowledge and guidance

Not only will your local tour guide know the most unique spots to visit, they’ll have plenty of knowledge to make for a well-rounded experience. Visiting La Rioja for a wine crawl? They’ll be able to recommend their personal taste preferences. In Tarragona they’ll have plenty of insider knowledge should you have questions about the Roman ruins, and in the most unfrequented of countryside spots, they’ll have the best tips and tricks for traversing the landscape on foot.

Your guide will be a local, and may even have grown up in the area that you’re visiting. So, the information you’ll be privy to is really unlike any that you would read in the tourist guide books, making for a much more authentic, culture-rich trip.

Getting more for your money

Holidays can be costly, and many of us find that we don’t get the most out of the experiences that we pay for – simply because it takes that extra little bit of time to navigate each activity on our own.

When you take part in a guided tour, you’re really setting yourself up for a much more relaxing, easy experience. Your transport is sorted, your attractions included, and you really don’t have to worry about developing your own detailed itinerary or travel schedule. Once you’ve done your pre-holiday prep work, just show up for your initial flight on time, and you’ll find that the rest of your holiday is a breeze.

Without all that added faff of navigating a new place on your own, you’re likely to find you have some time here and there to fit in extra attractions that aren’t a part of your guided tour. This can mean that you’re getting much more for your money, and having many more experiences than you would have if you’d chosen to go it alone.

Experience all that Spain has to offer

Feeling inspired? While Spain is a popular holiday destination, most only experience a small portion of what the country has to offer. Make your time in Spain count, and opt for a guided tour for plenty of culture, secret attractions, and all the insider knowledge you need for a life-changing experience.

Hiking guided tours in Cadiz province

In these private guided hiking activities in Cadiz province I offer incredible hikes in La Breña, El Estrecho and Los Alcornocales natural parks. Moreover, you will learn about local traditions and about the culinary, medicinal and gastronomical use of the Mediterranean plants. I worked in the environmental and conservation fields in Canada, UK and Spain before becoming a local guide.

Cadiz province is one of the most biodiverse provinces in mainland Spain. Habitats range from dense forest reminiscent of cloud forest to Mediterranean forest, dune systems, and more. Moreover, enjoy the majestic views of Cadiz and the Strait of Gibraltar. Cadiz has the highest percentage of protected habitat in Andalusia, while its climate and sunlight hours are similar to Canary Islands. I look forward to showing you this incredibly diverse province in the most southern point of mainland Spain.
