Trip Review

June 26, 2013

The Feltman Family of 5 (with young adult children ages 20, 22 and 24) from Plano, Texas celebrated a college graduation and acceptance tofeltman medical school with a family trip to Spain and Italy. They began their trip in Barcelona where they spent a few nights in a two bedroom apartment at Apartment 64 on the Passeig de Gracia (where Mindy also stayed with her family). They loved the spacious accommodations and central location. Their itinerary included a segway tour which was a great city orientation, a tour of the Sagrada Familia, a Runner Bean Tour of Gaudi (these are free tours operated by local college students), a visit to Camp Nou (the famous soccer stadium and home to FC Barcelona, the worlds’ number one soccer team in the world) and a visit to Gaudi’s Casa Batllo across the street from their hotel. From Barcelona they flew to Naples, Italy where they stayed overnight before meeting a private guide in Pompeii. This was one of the highlights of the trip. Following Pompeii they drove to Positano for a 3 night stay at Covo dei Sareceni in suites facing the ocean. They loved the views of Positano from the beach and from way up in the hills where they dined most evenings. They also took the hydrofoil to Capri for the day. They moved onto Rome for a few nights staying in another apartment hotel, the Internazionale Domus, near the Spanish Steps. They loved their private tour with ICON of the Vatican, Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel and the VIP underground tour of the Colosseum. They also spent one full day touring Rome in a golf cart with our local guide, Roberto.
