Spain Travel Agent and Expert

Spain
Spain

Want to know a secret? Spain is full of surprises! That is why I love to plan trips to this country located on the Iberian Peninsula. The country is full of cultural charm and contrasts, from the Moorish architecture of the Alahambra to the white homes featured in Andalucia. Whether your journey to Spain leads you to the colorful cities of Madrid or Barcelona, you will be utterly amazed at the surprises that await. Spain is also home to Pamplona, which is famous for its summer festival, held every year from July 6th to July 14th. El Encierro takes place during this time, more famously known as the "Running of the Bulls." A dozen bulls are released on the town's streets thundering behind hundreds of people. If you would rather relax on your vacation to Spain versus taking part in such a harrowing activity, I can find the ideal escapes. Spain's temperate Mediterranean climate, glimmering beaches, and green and lush hiking trails provide just the antidote for getting away.  Spain promises a vibrant tapestry of culture, history, and diverse landscapes. From the bustling streets of Madrid to the sun-soaked beaches of Barcelona, Spain offers a rich and immersive travel experience.Madrid - The Heart of Spain: Begin your Spanish adventure in Madrid, the dynamic and lively capital. Explore the historic neighborhoods of La Latina and Malasaña, where narrow streets are lined with tapas bars and local shops. Visit iconic landmarks such as the Royal Palace, the Prado Museum, and the vibrant Plaza Mayor. Madrid's energy is contagious, with its lively street performances, bustling markets, and a thriving nightlife that lasts well into the early hours.Barcelona - Gaudi's Masterpieces and Beach Vibes: Travel to Barcelona, a city known for its unique blend of modernist architecture, Catalan culture, and Mediterranean charm. Marvel at Antoni Gaudí's masterpieces including the Sagrada Familia, Park Güell, and Casa Batlló. Stroll down the famous La Rambla, explore the historic Barri Gòtic (Gothic Quarter), and unwind on the city's golden beaches. Barcelona's artistic spirit and vibrant street life create an atmosphere that is both cosmopolitan and laid-back.Seville - Flamenco and Moorish Heritage: Immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere of Seville, a city steeped in history and cultural richness. Visit the awe-inspiring Alcázar of Seville, a UNESCO World Heritage site with its stunning Moorish architecture and lush gardens. Witness the passion of flamenco in the Triana neighborhood, and climb to the top of the Giralda Tower for panoramic views of the city.Granada - The Alhambra's Splendor: Discover the mesmerizing beauty of Granada, where the Alhambra Palace stands as a testament to the country's Moorish heritage. Wander through the Generalife Gardens, marvel at intricate Nasrid architecture, and enjoy breathtaking views of the city and Sierra Nevada mountains. Granada's charming streets, filled with tea houses and tapas bars, invite you to savor the city's unique blend of cultures.Valencia - Modernity and Tradition: Explore the dynamic city of Valencia, where futuristic architecture meets historical landmarks. Visit the City of Arts and Sciences, a cutting-edge complex designed by Santiago Calatrava, and stroll through the charming old town. Relax in the Turia Gardens or indulge in the city's famous dish, paella, along the waterfront.Andalusian Countryside - Pueblos Blancos and Olive Groves: Venture into the picturesque Andalusian countryside, dotted with whitewashed villages (pueblos blancos) and surrounded by olive groves. Visit Ronda, perched on the edge of a dramatic gorge, and experience the timeless charm of Andalusian rural life.Costa del Sol - Sun-Kissed Beaches: Conclude your Spanish journey along the Costa del Sol, where sun-kissed beaches and vibrant coastal towns beckon. Relax on the golden sands, savor fresh seafood, and soak in the Mediterranean ambiance.Throughout your trip to Spain, savor the country's culinary delights, from tapas and paella to churros and Rioja wine. Spain's warm hospitality, rich history, and diverse landscapes create a travel experience that lingers in the memory, leaving you with a deep appreciation for this captivating country.   Let me be your go-travel agent for your next vacation today.

Affordable Paris trip
My husband and I renewed our wedding vows and hired Jamie to plan a trip for us to Paris. We were on some what of a budget and thought there was no way to afford it. Jamie was able to find us a great deal on a red eye flight out of JFK and a wonderful boutique hotel near Montmartre. Breakfast was included so we saved money on our meals. She arranged a private tour with a local guide she has worked with many times who spoke perfect English. It was like having a friend take us around the city. We loved every second. Thank you.

Most friendly and competent travel agent
If you are looking for the most friendly and competent travel agent, look no further. I usually do all of my own travel arrangements, but the flights were complicated and I was nervous about what I needed to do for Covid. Jamie put my mind at ease and came up with my complete travel plans within 2 days. Any time I had a question, my emails and phone calls were returned within an hour. Jamie listened to my needs and my budget and hit a home run. I LOVE working with her! I'm planning my next trip in the Spring and she has already started working on it. Thank you Jamie for all your hard work! I hope to meet you in person one day.

Jamie is the Best of the BEST!
We were a group of 4 (2 couples) going to Greece for the first time. This was the 3rd time we had tried to book because of Covid. Using a travel agent was a must this time because of the amount of work we put into it only to have it canceled/postponed was exhausting. Jamie started from scratch and booked everything for us including trip insurance. She was always available to do our Zoom calls since we all were in different cities. 3rd time was most definitely the charm because the trip was magically perfect in every way. Working with Jamie was like working with a close friend. I wish I could give her 10 out of 5 stars because she is that awesome!!! We have already referred friends and family to her and we hope she stays in business a long time. We highly recommend Jamie to plan your travels.

Trip of a life time thanks to Jamie
Rarely do I write reviews but Jamie deserves kudos in every way. I'm writing this as my wife and I are waiting to catch our plane back to the states. After battling with a life threatening illness and coming away with a positive prognosis, my wife called Jamie to plan our special celebration of life trip to Italy. After 2 conversations with Jamie, my wife asked me to join the conversations because she knew how much I would enjoy Jamie's enigmatic energy. Since Jamie has traveled to Italy many times, we knew we were working with the right person. Jamie booked us in a beautiful and historic apartment in the center of Rome. Angelina brought us a home cooked breakfast every morning. Our itinerary was perfect. We loved her restaurant suggestions and all the sightseeing ideas. I do look forward to getting home, but thanks to Jamie, this has been a trip of a life time. My wife and I could not have done this alone.

Our Vacation was a HUGE Success!
Jamie, our vacation was a huge success! Everything went as planned. Having that app "Trip Plans" was fabulous. We referred to that SO many times for details, using both the schedule by day and the pdf of the Final Itinerary. Both had different info that we needed to see.... I think you did a great job of summarizing the itinerary & communicating with us throughout the trip, i.e., when flights were canceled and had to be rebooked. Extremely impressed with your support, it was truly appreciated. We had a wonderful time and so many memories were made. You did an AMAZING job; we have already told people about you and the help you provided. We will definitely work together again in the near future!
