My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our 25th wedding anniversary to Spain and Portugal. Thank you for all your tips and help. More power to your channel.
@@mrsgomezmd what a superb thing to hear!!! We are so happy for you!
I’m trying to buy one of your guides using Apple Pay but it is failing - says it needs a tax id.
@@cathyfitzherbert1729 hi Cathy, sorry to hear that. We are required by law to have the tax ID of anyone purchasing a guide. I understand that attempting to pay by Apple Pay the system bypasses that requirement and the purchase fails. We will probably deactivate the option to pay with Apple Pay.
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal thanks. I didn’t know what to put in for the tax id. Will pay by card instead.
Tony, this comment is about this video and all of your videos on Madrid and Barcelona. We have found all of your suggestions and advice to be incredibly helpful and fantastic. We enjoyed your menu del dia suggestion of Terramundi in Madrid, your guides to Toledo and Madrid, your videos on taking high speed rail in Spain, and your videos on the Metros for both Madrid and Barcelona. You are one of the best UA-cam guides and hosts that we have encountered. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and fantastic advice. It has made our trip to Spain that much more special.
We are truly grateful for your kind words. Really happy to hear we contributed to the success of your trip!
Totally agree!
@@marciajimenez7347 👏👏👏 thank you, Marcia!
These look outstanding! Can’t wait to download your tour of Lisbon, hoping it will be available before my trip in October! I love your channel
Thanks Gina. We are snowed under with work and are unlikely to release any Lisbon titles this year. But we're just back from Lisbon with lots of new content we will be publishing during the coming weeks.
Greeting from Australia.Fantastic Content. Planning a visit to Lisbon in September.
That is very kind of you! Hope you'll have a superb trip. In the coming couple of months we're planning a few new videos on Lisbon and day trips from the city. All the best!
It appears it's no longer possible to send a message directly to a UA-cam channel, so I'll just leave my message on this video.
THIS is one of the finest channels I've ever seen. You're friendly and in informative. Your videos are so well-distilled and completely on point. Thank you so much for the work you've done here.
Thank you for your very kind words, Patrick, delighted to hear that.
Tony is the real MVP! Best guide ever on youtube. Greetings from Canada sir
Thank you for your kind words!
You are so right about planning a “roadtrip” or a “train-trip” in our case! 😂 But it does take A LOT of research and logistics. However! I just planned a tour from Barcelona to Madrid to Seville to Cordoba to Granada to Malaga with ONLY YOUR VIDEOS! I’m so excited to share this trip with my Mom! We will be coming over via a Disney Cruise Transatlantic (beginning of May) and staying an extra 17 days before flying back home (USA) from Madrid (beginning of June)! Your videos are one of the most excellent collections for planning a trip to Spain and Portugal on UA-cam! I hope anyone trying to plan such a massive trip takes all your advice and knowledge!! Your videos have been a lifesaver!!
People, I cannot endorse this man and his channel enough!!!
Hopefully we will run into you on our travels! 🎉
Many thanks for your kind words, Elizabeth. Hope you will have a fantastic trip in Spain. And yes, who knows if we don't meet somewhere during your trip. All the very best to you and your mom.
Fantastic news for 2024! I loved the new Travel Guide Spain & Portugal! Tony and Cecilia always going above and beyond!
Thank you, Yara, it's been a huge effort to put the whole site together and produce the guides, we hope it will be worth it and they guides will help many people traveling throughout Spain.
Hi Tony and Cecilia - We have purchased and downloaded all your Madrid and Barcelona guides for our upcoming trip in June. This is a great idea and helps a lot both reduce the workload of someone planning their own trip and avoiding the costs of tours not needed for a first time visitor to Spain.
The link to the maps does not seem to work from our pdf reader but I can copy and paste that link to my browser and get the map. I'm sure you will get some feedback from us on how all this works on our trip.
Edit: the map link works fine with Adobe Acrobat as the pdf reader. Bluebeam, which I use for work, will require a copy and paste work-around as mentioned above.
Dear Steve, hope you'll make the most of our guides and we also hope they will contribute to excellent days while touring Spain.
We always check our PDF files with Adobe Reader, but I understand there are many PDF readers around.
We'll be interested to hear your feedback. In the meantime, have a superb trip!
Thanks again for your videos . Always helpful .
Our pleasure, Peter.
What a great idea! Thanks Tony!
Thank you, Barbara! Lots of love and care put onto those guides!
I, with a lot of others I am sure, appreciate all of your care hard work ! Thank you!
@@barbara88- 👏👏👏
This is welcome news. I will be getting your Barcelona guide for my return trip to Spain. Thank you Tony!
Always our pleasure, Theo!
What a great idea. Next time I visit Spain/Portugal I will be sure to use this resource.
👍👍👍
Wow! Your guides look fantastic!! Guess we will need to get back to Spain & Portugal to try them out!!
Thank you so much!!
Happy New Year from New Mexico USA!! 🌶️👍🏼
Thank you, Marion, a happy new year to you too from Zaragoza. Hope you'll like the guides when you try them! All the best!
We needed these in November 😂. Thank you for your channel
Maybe next time! All the best to you!
Cannot wait to try these. We used your UA-cam guides to Roija last year ( added on to our 6 week trip around France ) and your suggestions were fantatic. So much so, that we are going back to see the rest of Spain and Portugal this May and June.
Great to hear that, Gary! 👏👏👏 We want the guides to be as useful as our videos. All the best!
Hi again Tony - you mentioned you will be expanding your guides in the future. May I suggest a guide for Mountjuic in Barcelona? There is a lot to see in that area and for a newcomer difficult to sort through. Your guides are a good foundation for the rest of Barcelona - I can fit specific sites around them for daily mix and match itineraries but Mountjuic is the one area I am having difficulty with.
Thanks, Steve, Montjuic is definitely on the agenda for new titles. Our problem right now is that we are snowed under with work.
Thanks!
That's very kind of you Rhia, many thanks for that!
Can't wait for Seville and Lisbon among others. Traveling in Aug and Sept 2024. Thank you so much!
Excellent, we hope you'll have a superb trip. Mind you, we recommend to avoid Seville at all costs during the summer. Check out this video ua-cam.com/video/iVvyFhjbnPY/v-deo.html
Hi Tony. Do you think visiting the Alcazar with a free ticket on Monday is suitable for a first-time traveler? If I enter at 18:00, we can have time until 19:45. I listened to your videos and you say 2 to 4 hours are required. I will be in Seville during the April Festival and my stay will be about 2 days.
Hey Toni -- another great service. Wife and I are working hard, with your help, planning our trip to Spain this May. Just booked hotels in Madrid and Seville. Would like your opinion. Madrid - plaza de Espana Skyline (16 Days - Base for day trips) SEVILLE - U-Sense Sevilla Centro (5 days - Day trips also)
Hi again, Gerry. 16 days in Madrid sounds like an awful lot of time. Perhaps you could include this itinerary during your stay ua-cam.com/video/avR6IK55iks/v-deo.html This video should help with your planning ua-cam.com/video/GkgrYc89s_o/v-deo.html All the best.
Hello, Señor Tony! Your channel is the best! I watched it before and after my trip to S&P in May 2023. Could you please recommend a channel that you use for travel in Italy?
Thanks Janice, we are not familiar with UA-cam channels on travel in Italy.
Mal from Toronto. We went to your site to purchase a travel guide for Lisbon. There doesn't seem to be anything available? It would be nice if there was a search feature on your travel guides site. Thanks in advance. Mal
Hi Mal, our homepage shows all the guides in our collection, that's why we deem it unnecessary, at least for the time being, to add a search button. As explained on the video, we don't have a Lisbon guide yet, hopefully some time along 2024.
Hi Tony,
Your video very helpful for my trip last Oct 2023. Im coming back in September 2024.
Can you tell me how can get from Barcelona to Fatima. or any info relate to Fatima.
Thank you/Kim
Hi Kim, try leaving your question here ua-cam.com/video/NS9AocaBuxQ/v-deo.html
I would love to purchase one of these guides but it is asking for my ID or Tax number. I am not sure what you are asking for. In the USA we do not share our Tax number (Social Security number) and I'm not sure which ID number you need (my driver's license, Passport, gym membership, etc.)
Hi Brian, for Spanish tax purposes, we need to associate the name of each purchaser of the guides with an ID number. We Europeans use our national ID number, which also stands for our VAT number. For residents of other countries, the number on any official ID will do (driver's license, passport). We only keep that information for tax purposes, in the unlikely case we are ever asked by the task authorities to show the invoices for the sales made. All the best!
Thank you Tony. I was able to purchase the Madrid de la Austrias walking tour using my credit card after I entered my official driver's license number. I tried to use the G-pay option but that caused an error saying I need to insert my Tax number or ID (which I had entered.) One suggestion for those of us who are unfamiliar with the neighborhoods would be to include a box/highlight on a map showing the location of the neighborhood in general (without showing the tour route of course). Thank you for the wonderful UA-cam videos and for these excellent walking tours!
@@brianjongraham2396 that's great, Brian. We're always keen to incorporate our reader's suggestions. Where exactly would you put the map you suggest? That wasn't clear to us. All the best!
@@ROADTRIPSpainandPortugal Hi Tony, I though tit would be helpful when I click on one of the walking tours that it show a general map of the city with the neighborhood of the tour highlighted. I am not very familiar with the neighborhoods. For example I didn't know the difference between the Gothic Quarter and Ciutadella and El Born. So I had to open Google maps and search for each of the neighborhoods.
Anyway, the walking tours are really excellent and I cannot wait to visit Spain and follow the tour! Thank you for all the wonderful videos and these excellent walking tours. I hope you add Lisbon soon since I will be visiting in March 2024! Cheers and thank you.
@@brianjongraham2396 thank you so much again for your feedback. I'm going to see how to introduce that map in the guide descriptions. I'll let you know when it's ready! I'm afraid our Lisbon tours won't be ready in the first half of 2024. All the best!
Hi we will fly with Vueling from Paris to barcelona then to Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes, 454 2D1B, Barcelona, Catalonia 08015, Spain. So would you like to advise us the best way to get to this address, many thanks
