Spring (March to June) and fall (September to November) offer mild temperatures, fewer crowds, and lower prices. This is also a great time for outdoor activities such as hiking, visiting national parks, and enjoying festivals and events. If you like warm weather, the summer months (July and August) are ideal, with temperatures reaching up to 30°C in some parts of the country. However, these months can also be very crowded and expensive. To help curb over-tourism, we recommend avoiding the peak summer months if your schedule allows it. December is also a nice time to visit but it is colder in Madrid, Segovia, and Toledo and you may need to wear additional layers during the outdoor activities.

Low season: November – April

High season: April – October

We are a travel agency specializing in sustainable tourism and ecotourism in Spain. With almost ten years of experience, we offer authentic travel experiences in all regions of the country and activities of all kinds.

Environmental Initiatives
As a sustainable company, we prioritize eco-friendly practices and strive to minimize our carbon footprint. We encourage the use of public transport whenever possible and suggest avoiding single-use plastics. Our travel itineraries include low-carbon and alternative activities, such as cycling tours and eco-tours in green areas of the cities. We also carefully select small and local accommodations that recover spaces of historical and cultural interest, with a preference for those run by families. While it is difficult to find eco-friendly accommodations, we make every effort to choose places that serve local and organic food and have consciously designed interiors.

Sociocultural Initiatives
We support local businesses such as small restaurants, producers, and accommodations. Rather than working with large companies for guided tours, we rely on local guides who have firsthand knowledge of the places we visit. Our goal is to create an authentic travel experience that connects travelers with local realities and helps to create a better industry. We also support local and social projects to ensure that the benefits of tourism are shared among the communities we visit.
Our travel experiences are designed to highlight the varied cultural and natural heritage of Spain. We believe in meeting the locals, so we don't work with big companies. Instead, we support small and local businesses, many of which are family-run, and encourage you to visit our country from a different point of view. Our tailor-made travel itineraries are created to put the spotlight on local realities and unknown destinations. We carefully select local hosts who are committed to sustainable tourism and ecotourism, and who can provide travelers with firsthand knowledge of the places they are visiting. We also offer activities that allow travelers to immerse themselves in the local culture, such as tapas tours and cooking classes.
