There’s nothing we love more than a repeat client. For us, it’s the greatest form of flattery and confirmation we’re doing our job well. At Spain Savvy, we constantly have clients come to us after their first trip to Spain looking to explore other areas of the country, or asking for a Portugal itinerary. Later, these same clients want to discover Europe’s other regions, but with Spain Savvy by their side. And that’s where our partners come in. Which is why we’re excited to announce our amazing partnership with Private Tour Experiences. Here’s what that means for you as a Spain Savvy client:

Insider Knowledge and Tailored Itineraries

Private Tour Experiences partners with folks who are on-the-ground experts in each location, just like us. That means you’ll have access to deep local knowledge and insight that you wouldn’t have otherwise. All our private guides are five-star rated and known for their exceptional storytelling. Your restaurant recommendations go well outside the over-touristy spots. And your accommodations and experiences are completely aligned with your interests and needs. Think culinary deep-dives, ancestry research, historical themes, film and TV locations, immersive cultural moments, or VIP luxury access to popular sites.

Spain Savvy-Level Service

If you’ve traveled with us before, you’ve experienced our exceptional service and communication firsthand: it’s personal (we treat you like family!) and we’re always available for last-minute requests and changes. When you travel beyond the bounds of Spain and Portugal with our partners, you’ll receive the same level of attentive, familiar service.

Discover New European Destinations

Here at Spain Savvy we’re always looking to expand our offerings for our past and future clients. We get so many requests from our repeat clients looking to travel beyond Spain and Portugal. Here’s where the Spain Savvy + Private Tour Experiences itineraries can take you.

England

Start in the grand city of London to see the major historical sites like Big Ben or spend the day at the Tate Museum. Then take a venture into the nearby Cotswolds, one of the most idyllic conglomeration of villages in the English countryside. Have English ancestors? Take a heritage ancestry tour and explore places like York and Cambridge. Or explore south England’s historic towns, hidden villages, and seaside trails.

Scotland

If wild landscapes, whisky, or golf are at the top of your travel list, Scotland needs to be your next European vacation. Tour the historical city of Edinburgh with a private guide, explore the country’s majestic castles from north to south, and take in the lush landscapes and rugged terrain of the Scottish countryside. Then it’s whisky tastings at some of the best distilleries in the country or a few rounds of golf at some truly breathtaking historic courses.

Ireland

Private tours and transfers through Dublin, Killarney, Dingle, and Galway are just the beginning of a bespoke southern Irish tour. Take in the Cliffs of Moher, drive the Ring of Kerry (or have someone drive it for you!), and hike through the verdant Killarney National Park. Discover the best pubs, hidden corners known only to locals, and exceptional accommodations to rest after a day of exploration.

Norway

Organize a cruise through the fjords to see glaciers and magnificent mountains, or ask about a hike to these glaciers and peaks up close. Visit the country’s vibrant cities like Oslo and Bergen, and quaint fishing villages with those quintessential colorful houses and quiet way of living. Looking to see the Northern Lights? Plan your itinerary around spotting this spectacular natural display.

Denmark

Bike along the canals and enjoy Michelin star restaurants and award-winning bakeries in Copenhagen. Then visit the fairytale castles in the countryside, or simply live out the cozy hygge lifestyle. Plan a cycling route through small villages and soak up the magic of this Scandinavian marvel.

Iceland

Start in Reykjavík for museums and Viking history, then head out to explore some of the world’s most dramatic landscapes: bubbling geysers, black sand beaches, active volcanoes, glaciers, and rolling green hills. Spend the evening with a beer in hand at the many geothermal pools or spas, where you can relax (and stay warm!) even in the chilliest months.

Greenland

Explore this country’s impressive natural landscapes with guided hikes along expansive tundras, and cruises (by boat or even kayak!) through icy fjords, where you’re bound to spot Arctic marine wildlife like whales and polar bears.

Switzerland

Hike the alps in the warmer months, visiting crystal alpine lakes and idyllic towns that feel right out of a storybook. Or hit the slopes in some of the best ski resorts in the world, where you can live that Swiss aprés life with a spritz in hand. Then it’s a pile of Swiss raclette mountain cheese, local wines, and wandering through perfect mountain villages.

Italy

Private Tour Experiences works with Travel by Luxe to help design and execute their luxury Italian itineraries. And we’ve been working with them for years to do the same! Whether you’re looking to hit the major cities for a deep dive into Roman history or want a relaxing week of wine tasting in Tuscany, each Italian itinerary is totally unique and tailored to each traveler. We’re especially interested in a culinary-focused trip to Sicily and discovering the hidden gems and coastal towns of Puglia.

Ready to go beyond Spain and Portugal? Discover Europe with trusted travel designers and explore new designations. We also work with some stellar partners in Morocco and Greece! Reach out to us here and tell us more about what you’re looking to see. We’ll be there every step of the way.
