Sometimes the groups get larger and to pick up everybody from their hotels would take us half of the day. However, if your hotel is on the way where the bus passes by on leaving day, we will pick you up. So, one week before travel, you are advised to give us your hotel name in Madrid so we can tell if you can be picked up directly from your hotel or if you must go to the nearest meeting point at 7.45am. In Barcelona, there is always a meeting point at the reception of ‘Catalunya Barcelona 505’ hotel.
