“I’ve participated in several foreign team tours over the years, and our trip to Spain and France in the summer of 2017 was the best-organized and most enjoyable of them all. Our hosts from Anthony Travel kept things smooth and easy for us logistically. Our local guides were fantastic and became like members of our team family. The entire experience was first-class from start to finish.”
