"The trip successful and enjoyable. We loved Bilbao, not only the Guggenheim but also the Miro Hotel. They couldn't have been nicer. We would recommend it highly. Barcelona was fascinating and the guides, Christina, Albert (driver) and Delores, were excellent. The hotel was very well situated for all the sites we wanted to see. Our only complaint was that the hotel was very noisy at night outside our room because many of the guests were inconsiderate. The rooms were very small. On the other hand, the staff was very helpful and pleasant. One major issue and a disappointment was the fact that we had told you that the main reason we wanted to go to Girona was to visit the former Jewish section. However, no one, not you, not the local tour company with whom you dealt, and not our guide did the proper research into the Jewish museum's hours. The local guide was excellent at the Dali museum but did not seem to know much about the Jewish history in Girona. When we arrived at the museum at 3 p.m. we discovered that it closed at 2 p.m. on Sundays. You can imagine our disappointment as the museum is the only place to learn the history. Despite this, we appreciated all your efforts. It was a great trip all around."

"I highly recommend using Magic Hills. I started planning my trip in November of 2021 and was communicating with Bronagh as I wanted to do the full Camino Frances. Right from the start I had such a great feeling dealing with Bronagh, She called me from Ireland and we chatted at length about this trip. She really was so informative and I just knew that I could trust her. So I booked the Full Frances Camino right to Finisterre leaving August 29th from SJPP. All of her suggestions, the itinerary were spot on. The accommodations were spectacular. I totally loved the walking every day, meeting up with people, enjoying the scenery, historic buildings it was truly an awesome experience. I met several people who were using other companies and from what I could tell I had the best overall service."

"We've taken over 10 group tours using Cosmos and Gate1. This trip last month, 9000 was not very good. -During booking, incorrect information was given about airport-hotel transfers -The whispers (listening devices) didn't work from the get-go, so no whispers were used during the 13 day trip. - Porters are no longer hired to bring your luggage to and from your room. (Very elderly had to handle their own luggage. Our friends had to help many of them.) -A few days into the trip one couple left. At the end of the trip we found out they had covid. Cosmos did not let us know; a few people weren't feeling well and two of our friends then tested positive. -One hotel was awful and not even up to "budget" standards -Many of the stops had castles, churches... but were not included, so be sure to count that in when pricing.  don't plan to use Cosmos ever again. Gate1 is the best in my opinion. When my husband's passport was stolen, they assigned someone to go with him to the embassy, translate, etc...It was above and beyond what we expected  "
