We have just utilized Carameltrails to plan out recent trip to Spain and Portugal.The timing, planning, itinerary and communication were were all essentially perfect -I do not think it would be possible for any travel planners based outside of Spain to  provide equivalent service. They were spot on in every recommendation to our itinerary and provided us with a smooth, easy and carefree trip. Paloma and Samuel  were in touch with us daily and, also, at a moment's notice to answer questions. The gastronomic experiences they arranged for us were both authentic and outstanding - perhaps the most memorable part of the trip. We had a single unforeseen problem with one of our pre-arranged transportation modalities and they were able to address it professionally and completely within a half hour.
They were superb and I recommend them without hesitation.

Angela and Paloma put together a fantastic itinerary for my wife and I. All venues, hotels, restaurants, and guides were outstanding. All travel arrangements went off without a  hitch, and they kept in touch constantly to insure that all was well. Would highly recommend Caramel Trails to anyone visiting Spain.

Last year we did Spain and Portugal with Caramel Trail.  This year we did Morocco.  They provided us with a guide and a driver for every day we were there and some wonderful hotel accommodations and various local experiences.  We had a great time and Caramel Trail is simply the best.

We just returned from a wonderful trip to Portugal and Spain and could not have been more thrilled with the quality of service provided by Carameltrail.  From the start, Samuel worked with us to develop an itinerary that covered all our desired destinations.  Once in Portugal and Spain, we were impressed with the quality and location of hotels and the professionalism of the drivers (always on time, clean and high-quality vehicles).   What most impressed us were the guided tours that Carameltrail arranged for us - a Rioja winery tour, Guggenheim Museum tour to Bilbao, Gaudi tour, walking tour of Lisbon and a walking tour of Madrid and the Prado.  All of our tour guides were very knowledgeable and each one enhanced our understanding of the region, its rich history and fascinating attractions!

From the day we arrived, Samuel and his office regularly communicated with us via text to ensure we were happy with our arrangements.  We would highly recommend Carameltrail!  They did all the work, so we could just enjoy ourselves!!!!

Caramel Trail arranged an amazing trip for our family to Spain and Morocco.  All of the hotels were great and located in key areas of the cities we visited.  The guides and drivers were wonderful - very informative and attentive.  They were always available for any questions.  We were absolutely thrilled with our experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could!

They created a perfect trip for us a few years ago and it remains one of the highlights of our travels. We definitely intend to ask them to create a an itinerary for us to Portugal soon.

I have used Carameltrail twice for two separate trips. One in 2017 and just recently in June of this year(2025). Both times we have had incredible trips that we will always remember and cherish. In 2017, we visited Barcelona, Madrid, Seville, and Malaga. Our hotels were great, our tours and tour guides were excellent and we were treated very kindly wherever we went. The trip was planned by Samuel Rojo and his team and we were so impressed with Spain, we wanted to visit there again for our 10th anniversary. Samuel recommended Angela and Paloma to plan our trip to Northern Spain and they also did an excellent job of doing so. Again, it was a trip we will remember for the rest of our lives. We visited the lovely towns of San Sebastián, La Rioja, Ribelsella, and Getxo, near Bilbao. Everything went like clockwork. We were always picked up on time by our courteous drivers and treated kindly. The tour operators we educated and knowledgeable. So much to see and do. The weather was also very nice this time of year, averaging 75F during the day and 60’s at night. A nice reprieve from the very hot weather of Florida this time of year!  Two thumbs up Carameltrail!  And thank you!!

Our group of 6 experienced a most fabulous trip in
Seville, Madrid, Lisbon and Madeira thanks to the expertise of Angela and Paloma from Carameltrail.  We have worked with different travel agents over the years, but have never experienced the attention to detail, thoughtful planning, and wonderful execution as we did for this recent month-long trip.  Angela listened carefully to our thoughts about the trip and scheduled experiences for us that were varied, authentic, and interesting.  The guides that were secured for us were absolutely top-notch!  We liked the fact that we had several guides for multiple days.  All drivers were excellent and on time for each excursion.  Throughout the trip, Angela and Paloma checked in with us each day to make sure we enjoyed our activities and constantly asked if they could do anything else for us.  When we asked about hearing Fado music, they secured tickets for us at no extra charge.  We have never had such personalized service.  We would  certainly use Carmeltrail again when traveling to that part of Europe.  We wholeheartedly recommend them- you will not be disappointed.  They exceeded every expectation we had for our trip.

This is the second time we have dealt with Samuel and Paloma, and both have been exceptional. They were in constant contact with our guides, making sure nothing went wrong. If we decided to alter plans in the middle of our trip, no problem.  I would recommend them to all.

5 Stars – Absolutely Exceptional Service!

I recently booked a vacation with Carameltrail, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. The team (Samuel and Paloma) was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cared about creating the perfect itinerary for me. They took the time to understand my preferences and suggested unique destinations and activities I wouldn’t have discovered on my own.

Every detail — from flights, private drivers/car service and accommodations to tours and local experiences — was perfectly coordinated. I felt supported the entire time, and any questions I had were answered quickly and professionally. This was hands-down one of the best trips I’ve ever taken, and it’s all thanks to their expert planning and personal touch.

If you’re looking for a travel planner that truly goes above and beyond, look no further. Last year Carameltrail planned Spain for me and this year was Portugal. Exceptional experience. I’ll definitely be booking with them again!

I took my 2nd trip with Caramel Trail recently and it was an outstanding experience (just like the 1st time).  Caramel Trail's attention to detail is second to none.  Every step of our trip was meticulously planned and every driver and tour guide was well organized, knowledgeable and friendly.

My friends and I recently had the pleasure of booking our trip with Carmeltrail in Madrid, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived at the airport to the last day of our trip, all of our travel needs were met.

The itinerary crafted by Samuel (the Owner) was nothing short of exceptional, we worked together and he understood right away what we wanted to do, he gave us great ideas of places to visit incluiding Cuenca, Avila and Segovia, We also went to the beautiful Toledo. Every detail was meticulously planned, offering a perfect balance of must-see attractions and hidden gems. Their local knowledge of the guides  (all of them!!!!!!!!)made my journey in Madrid and around Madrid truly memorable.

What impressed me the most was the personalized attention I received by Samuel and his wife Paloma, when we were in our trip they replied to our texts within the minute, any queries or concerns were promptly addressed, they also helped us make reservations to restaurants when we ran out of ideas and we couldn't find a place to eat.. The recommendations for restaurants ,were the Best!
Pancho our driver was the best, he was very kind, and kept up with our group of 4 girls that wanted pictures everywhere, He always had a smile even though sometimes we were not on time in the morning or were late when we had to come back, (sorry Pancho)
In summary, my friends and I had a blast, we would hire Caramel trail again and again. I was happy when Samuel told us he can also arrange trips to Morocco and Portugal!!!!
We are coming back!!!
Thank you Samuel!
pic of us with our guide in Toledo (JuanJo) the best!

Caramel Trail has been absolutely spectacular. They did our entire trip chose the locations chose the hotels and supplied call Ice and drivers and tours. We have absolutely no complaints whatsoever. Hotels were super spectacular and perfect locations. The tour guides were wonderful and the drivers were superb. We did not have one bad moment in our entire 2 1/2 weeks we recommend them to anybody.

We just finished a tour of Portugal. Angela and Paloma took care of all the details of the trip to include airport transfers, hotels, gastronomy and tour guides. We basically flew into the country and they took care of the land portion of the trip. They remained in constant communication during the trip and answered all questions in less than 5 minutes. All of their guides and car/van drivers were professional and were able to communicate in English (and in Spanish also). Several experiences were tailored made for our trip, such as hiking through a vineyard in the Duoro region, a gastronomic tour of Porto, and a nice Sunday drive through the beaches of Algarve, among others. Our driver was excellent  and made suggestions on the spot for our lunches, dinners, spots for sightseeing and photography, etc.

This is by far the best experience we have ever had with a travel agency.. Travel agency does not quite do Samuel and Paloma justice.  They are a concierge level team that attended to our entire families requests to create a most perfect experience in Spain and Portugal.  Their attention to detail, knowledge of the entire country, and choosing only the best hotels, services, tour guides is impeccable.  We give the highest recommendation possible.

Caramel Trail assisted us on our travels to Spain and Portugal. We cannot say enough great things about their recommendations, travel support and guidance throughout our entire trip. Whenever we contacted Angela or Paloma they responded within minutes every time. They literally made us feel as if we were their only clients. When our trip was disrupted due to weather on Madeira, Caramel Trail had us rebooked and accommodated within hours, which was amazing. We highly recommended them to anyone traveling and needing top notch support!

We had an amazing time. We visited Morocco last week for 10 days. What an experience! Samuel, Paloma and the entire team were great. We visited Fes, Marrakech, Essaouira, and Casablanca. I definitely recommend, the Sahara and the camel ride!

Just returned from an amazing trip to Portugal!  It was our second trip planned by Carameltrail.  Paloma and Angela put together a trip that satisfied all of our desires.  We also used Angela for our trip to Spain and Morocco.   I highly recommend Carameltrail and Paloma and Angela for your next trip.

We worked with Angela and the team at CaramelTrail to plan our trip to Portugal and Spain, and they were absolutely fantastic. When our outbound flight was canceled and we lost a day of travel, they quickly and seamlessly adjusted our itinerary so we didn’t miss a single activity. Throughout the trip, there were several moments where we needed to make changes, and they patiently and efficiently handled every request with zero added stress. They were incredibly responsive to our preferences and even introduced us to a few experiences we wouldn’t have found on our own, which ended up being some of our favorites. I’d highly recommend working with them to create a trip that’s truly tailored to your vision.

Angela and her associate Paloma at Carameltrail did an amazing job for us!  I wanted a completely custom 12 night tour of Spain and Portugal. This was late August & early September of 2024.  I went in with no particular ideas.  After a series of questions to get to know what my family did and didn't like, and only about 4 exchanges back and forth, Angela had created a completely custom, amazing and unforgettable trip for us!  The trip included hotels, transfers, train tickets, entry tickets, tours, guides, and so much more!!  Every person that represented the company did an amazing and very professional job.  We did not have a single issue!  Here is the bulk of what we did: Land in Barcelona for three nights and stayed a great hotel in an amazing location.  We did wine tasting, food tasting (ask for David!  He had us in stitches!), flamenco show at the concert hall, and an Gaudi tour (with guide and driver) in Barcelona.  They booked us the high speed train (around 5 hours) to Seville.  Once again, amazing hotel in a great location for 3 nights.  We did a guided walking city tour, a different flamenco show, and day trip to Costa de la Cruz (with guide and driver). Seville was just wonderful!  Then one of their drivers drove us to our next destination in Cascais (a beautiful beach city just outside of Lisbon).  We stopped at lovely Evora on the way. Once again, the hotel in Cascais was topnotch!  The next day we had a driver and guide take us around Lisbon.  So lovely and so much to see!  If Florence Italy and San Francisco had a baby, it would look like Lisbon.  I love that city!  Next day we had a driver and guide for Sintra.  You DO NOT want to miss the palace in Sintra!   It is just breathtaking!! And that evening they booked us a private sailing on a catamaran in Cascais.  Sooooo relaxing and beautiful!!! Leaving Cascais, we had a driver that took us to Porto with a religious stop in Santarem (for the eucharistic miracle there) and Fatima.  Both were my request, and they fit it in wonderfully!  If you are Catholic, you have to visit those two places in Portugal!  Final stop that day was Porto.  Again, loved he hotel in Porto for the 3 night stay.  We were right in the hubbub near the train station.  We did a lovely city walking tour with a guide in Porto.  We enjoyed an AMAZING cooking class there and did a full day of wine tasting too.  You CANNOT miss the wine tasting in the Duro Valley.  These are views that are some of the most outstanding vineyard views you will ever see (puts Tuscany, Italy and Napa, CA to shame).  We loved learning about the port wines too!  I think that's a wrap.  It was an absolutely amazing and unforgettable trip. Carameltrails made all the dreams come true, and only in handful of messages and phone calls.  They are professionals through and through.  I would highly recommend their services.

Samuel of CaramelTravel organized four day-trips for my family during our 2-week visit to Spain: two in Barcelona, one in Madrid, and one in Toledo. For each trip, our tour guide was excellent! The guides were experts in the topic of the day and the region, friendly, helpful, and kind. In planning our trip, Samuel offered many options and worked with us to create just the right excursions. During our trip, Paloma stayed in close contact, ensuring that we had a resource in case we needed anything. I can't speak highly enough about our experience with CaramelTravel- the service was outstanding! Thank you!

What a great trip.  Caramel Trails listened to what we wanted and provided a wonderful experience.  From Lisbon, the university in Coimbra, Wine Tasting in Porto and the Douro valley, to Templers in Tomar and of Course Sintra.   The guides were personable, and knowledgeable, and always on time.  Highly Recommend Caramel Trails

Cheers to Carmeltrail and we look forward to traveling with them again!

Carameltrail travel specialists were absolutely fantastic! Samuel did a great job of helping us plan our trip. They coordinated everything from hotel reservations, transfers, tour guides, car rental and train trips. Paloma provided excellent assistance during our stay. She helped us out when we got lost driving, making train schedules and even finding medical service. We would highly recommend them for your travel needs.

Caramel Trail (Angela and Samuel) did an amazing job of planning our recent trip to Spain.  Not only did they plan a detailed itinerary, they coordinated seamless pickups from the airport, incredible english speaking tour guides and helped us to know what to expect.  They provided helpful information on history, culture and advice on customary tipping, restaurant recommendations and so much more.  Another aspect that I really appreciated was that I had a phone number that I could text if I needed anything and they responded right away.  They periodically texted us to make sure everything was going well.  When traveling abroad this gave me such peace of mind.  I'm so glad I found Caramel Trail.  They make it easy!  Thank you!

Our experience with Carameltrail was positive and professional from start to finish. Initially, our plans were arranged pre-pandemic with scheduled dates in the middle of the pandemic.  Carameltrail allowed postponement to a post pandemic schedule without extra cost or difficulty. The itinerary was tailored to all our personal requests, and often exceeded expectations. Hotel selections were well suited to our preferences, transportation was well managed and timely, the tours ran smoothly, and the guides were both knowledgeable and engaging. Our entire experience was first rate, and interactions with Samuel and Paloma were personable, responsive and thorough, they kept an on-going line of communication. We were confident of their support each and every day of our 24-day trip. If you are considering travel to Spain, we would highly recommend the Carameltrail agency.

My wife and I recently returned from a two week trip to Spain which was arranged for us by Angela Vigil Martinez and Carameltrail. It was a fantastic vacation from beginning to end. Angela helped us plan out the itinerary and arranged for all our drivers, guides, train reservations, and hotel accommodations. We had several pre-trip telephone calls and emails during which Angela carefully listened to our interests and provided us with many excellent recommendations to plan our itinerary.  There were a lot of moving parts, but, despite this, everything worked out seamlessly. Angela was in constant contact with us throughout the trip and incredibly responsive to any minor problems we had. We would definitely use her and her agency for future travel, and are recommending her to our friends. She made this vacation an excellent experience.
