” What really made Just Explore stand out from the beginning was the personalized response to my inquiry.  Rosa Lara, our travel agent, really took the time to read through what I wanted to present relevant options.  After several rounds of interaction we ended up with a great itinerary.  The trip itself was great and my wife and I had a great time.  It was a fantastic balance between getting as much done as possible in Andalusia but leaving enough time for us to relax and actually feel like we’re having a vacation.  Rosa is very communicative, especially over WhatsApp both before and during the trip.  We enjoyed all the tour guides and venues she chose for us and especially those few tours where she was our personal guide”

” Nous sommes cinq couples d’amis français retraités, nous venons d’effectuer un circuit en Andalusie de 8 Jours.
Pour cela nous nous sommes adressés à Just Explore, Agence de voyages espagnole spécialisée, basée à CORDOUE, et plus précisément à Mme Rosa Lara. 
Nous ne le regrettons pas. 
La construction de ce circuit ” sur mesure ” en relation avec Rosa nous a permis de faire prendre en compte nos souhaits,  nous n’avons pas été déçu du résultat.
 Sa parfaite organisation nous a permis de découvrir cette très jolie région d’Espagne, d’aller à la rencontre de son histoire  multiculturelle et riche en événements visibles encore aujourd’hui par de nombreux monuments, musés, cathédrales, mosquées, et autres que nous avons visités accompagnés pour cela par des guides francophones très compétents.
 Les hôtels sélectionnés par Rosa nous ont ravis, de très grand confort et toujours bien situés dans les villes, proches des lieux caractéristiques à découvrir lors de nos moments libres.
 Les restaurants prévus dans la prestation ainsi que ceux préconisée nous a permis de découvrir des lieux authentiques de restauration avec réservations et tables attribuées à nôtre groupe, accompagné d’ un service personnalisé, un régal…
Les transports de ville à ville en minibus confortables et privés ont étés parfaits et respectueux des horaires prévus.
 Nous souhaitons, par ailleurs, insister sur la qualité de la relation avec Rosa, à nôtre écoute, toujours disponible pour nous rendre ce séjour le plus agréable possible et ce toujours avec le sourire.

“Our trip to Spain planned and organized by Just Explore has been outstanding.  My wife and I spent two weeks in Spain.  The guided tours, train travels, driver pick up and drop offs – all planned by Rosa Lara, our agent went perfectly and on time.  She also provided help and accopanied us in Spain, which my wife and I appreciated very much.  Her presentation of itineraries was very impressive.  Rosa Lara is hard-working, honest, very easy to work with, and customer-centric.  She has chosen the hotels exactly how I instructed her as we are very fussy about the quality and location of the hotels.  She is also very prompt in responding to emails and texts. I find in this agent all the qualuties of a successful travel planner. I highly recommend her to anyone planning to visit Spain”

“Just Explore is simply the best travel agency I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with in my extensive travels. The level of personal attention this agent provides before, during and after the trip is without parallel. Rosa Lara took extraordinary care to ensure our trip was tailored to our liking. Her recommendations for places to see and eat were also outstanding. Over two weeks we visited Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Cordoba, Zahara, Ronda, Marbella, Granada and Barcelona. At each stop our guides were on-time, informative and fun. The hotels were in great locations and exceeded our expectations. This agency’s pricing is also better or competitive with peers without compromising on quality or service. You get more with Just Explore!

“Rosa was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end.  I contacted her by email to arrange a custom trip to Spain for my parents, husband and me.  We interacted a few times by email and Skype to arrange exactly the trip we wanted within the requested price range and she did a marvelous job.  We really appreciated all of the personal attention, including her meeting us at the train station in Cordoba, getting us to our hotel and giving us an introductory walking tour of the city.  She also spent an entire day with us, providing our transfer from Sevilla to Ronda (the latter, her recommendation and a must-see town that we’d never heard of) and showing us some lovely scenery, villages and a wonderful lunch along the way.  She then stayed into the evening to give us a walking tour of Ronda.  She is a wealth of knowledge and recommendations, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment she spent with us.  She also found us wonderful accommodations, arranged convenient transfers and incredibly knowledgeable guides, including one who knew something about birds (not even a specific request but she could tell it was of interest to us and he took us to a lovely bird sanctuary along our route).  We all had a wonderful time and highly recommend working with her again”

“Graham and I just want to thank you for the most amazing holiday. The care and attention to all the finer details of the experience was extraordinary. The selection of the hotels steeped in history and location within the old cities was spectacular. The care and attention which all the selected guides gave us and the knowledge which they shared with us throughout the tour of Andalusia was thoughtful and much appreciated. It gave us both a little time out from the insanity of our busy lives. We particularly enjoyed the private tour of the olive farm as well as the degustation at the wine farm, something totally unexpected from the routine tourist experience. Thank you for sharing Spain with us. A lasting memory that we will always cherish”

“I have just returned from an amazing 4-day Food and Wine Tour of the Montilla-Moriles region of Andalucia based in Cordoba. The small group included my wife and another couple of friends. The whole event was extremely well organised by Rosa Lara who accompanied us on the tour. Our hotel was extremely well appointed in Cordoba and was right next to the mosque. Transfer arrangements in a private minibus were spot on. There were two visits to wineries (bodegas) where we sampled the great Pedro Ximenez wines of this area. In one of the local cellars the tasting was accompanied by a fantastic tapas lunch. We also visited an Iberian ham farm in los Pedroches Natural reserve (North Cordoba) and had a delightful lunch which included Iberian black pig ham, stuffed mushrooms, traditional cake and interestingly orange in olive oil and sugar. We also had a visit to an olive oil producer, as well as a cheese producer where various wines were tasted. Despite all this food during the day, we had to be fed and watered in the evenings as well. The choice of restaurants during our stay in the evenings was really good and based on local knowledge supplied by our delightful host, Rosa Lara.
This is a highly recommended company”

“We just LOVED the trip that Rosa customized for me and my daughters around Spain. I wanted them to experience the best of the culture and that’s why we picked March to come so we could see the Fallas in Valencia and the Holy Week in Andalucia. Just Explore was very flexible and made adjustments when necessary (ie: including a day trip to Toledo in the last minute, re-scheduling our “view” from a building to see the Fallas).  It was fun to watch the faces and hear my daughters’ cameras click incessantly. The history captured by each stop was embraced by each of their senses; sight, touch, taste, hearing and smell. Absolutely memorable trip! Thank you!”
