Rating for tour operator:

With good, friendly and personal service, Casas Cantabricas took one of their standard tours and amended for our personal requirements. Having personally met Any McCullouch I feel that he is a person we can trust to meet our needs.

Self drive holiday of Spanish Pyrenees

Andy and a Guru from Casas Cantabricas organised our self drive holiday across the Spanish Pyrenees. We stayed in lovely hotels, three of which were in mediaval villages. Exceptional meals in Posada al vent and Cal Sastre. We walked in the national parks and swam in the river. There was also the most beautiful local pool in Uncastillo, a welcome relief in very hot weather.

Andy and a Guru from Casas Cantabricas organised our self drive holiday across the Spanish Pyrenees. We had four lovely hotels booked and a very nice car from Europecar. They were easily contacted and followed up on any queries we had both before we left and while we were on the tour. The Vamoos app. was very helpful. We would definitely use them again.

Many thanks Norman - great to hear your adventure in the Pyrenees went so well! The eastern route uses some of our more 'individual' hotels and we're delighted that you found them to your liking.

Camino Trans-Pirinaica

What a wonderful holiday! This was our second road trip holiday with Casas Cantabricas and was equally as good as our first holiday two years ago in which we drove across northern Spain. We started our trip in Bilbao and finished just north of Barcelona, following the French/Spanish border on the Spanish side. We stayed for 2 nights each in 6 different hotels, each hotel very different in style ranging from small country hotels, mountain ...

What a wonderful holiday! This was our second road trip holiday with Casas Cantabricas and was equally as good as our first holiday two years ago in which we drove across northern Spain. We started our trip in Bilbao and finished just north of Barcelona, following the French/Spanish border on the Spanish side. We stayed for 2 nights each in 6 different hotels, each hotel very different in style ranging from small country hotels, mountain hotels, a luxurious spa hotel and even a modern art / gastronomic hotel! All the owners were really friendly and welcoming. The scenery en route was stunning and we saw vultures, wild horses, marmots, mountain goats as well as discovering many lovely towns and villages along the way. We found beautiful forest walks and cycle paths and of course fantastic restaurants. This part of the world is so beautiful, quiet and unspoilt. Thank you Andy for putting together another great trip for us, this was a real value for money holiday. We would definitely recommend a Casas holiday to anyone.

Rating for tour operator:

Andy from the Casas team has put together two fantastic road trip holidays for us. He and his team have a wealth of knowledge of the regions and has personally visited the hotels we stayed in. He listens to what his customers want and makes recommendations when they don't know what they want! The point to point instructions and information given is excellent. He is always at the end of a phone if you have a query.
