Organization by Bea was great - great hotels and guides. Morocco was wonderful although the local operator did not seem to know parts of our itinerary.

Hotel was almost on top of major roads and even with double windows it was loud (especially trying to go to bed early for 3 am wake up)

local guide Omar was fabulous. Went out of his way to be sure we say everything we wanted and help my son go back to riad when he did not feel well

Flamenco Show in a Sacromonte Cave

Granada

The Flamenco Show was quite enjoyable and struck the right balance in terms of length. It wasn't overly long, making it a good introduction to flamenco. The performance was engaging and gave a nice cultural touch to our evening. Overall, it was a nice experience.

Visit an Andalusian Olive Oil Estate

Seville

The olive oil estate visit was fine but not overly impressive. It was a short visit, less than an hour, where we saw different kinds of olives, the machinery used, and tasted three olive oils. It was informative but not a must-do activity.
