Personalized Spain Travel Services
Our Personalized Spain Travel Services
We are a boutique Spain travel consultancy firm. Our clients range from couples to families to solo travelers to “bubble groups” of friends. Anyone who wants to discover pure Spain through its art, architecture, culture, history, gastronomy, and more.
Spain Less Traveled is not a guided tour company. You will not be in a big bus touring Spain with a group of strangers on a cookie-cutter itinerary. Instead, we work with you to travel independently around Spain on a customized trip just for you. We are passionate about the monumental sites as well as Spain’s hidden gems, and want to help you discover it all!
We are currently offering different types of Spain travel planning services to suit the needs of just about every traveler.

Investment: A non-refundable $350 USD deposit. Since no two itineraries are alike, this is a proposal-based service. Our fees for this Spain travel planning service range from $125-150+ per day of the itinerary based on the complexity of the trip (ie $875-$1050+ for a week-long trip/$1750-$2100+ for a two-week trip). More complex itineraries and longer trips will cost more. If your trip is shorter than a week, it will still cost a minimum of $800 for the itinerary service.
We recommend you start this process at least three months in advance of travel. For more complex itineraries, the turnaround time can vary. If you do not have that lead time please contact us before setting up your appointment to ensure we can accommodate your timeframe. (Please note that we can sometimes work with last-minute clients for an additional rush fee based on our availability)
Please note: Our Spain travel itinerary service does not include us making any reservations or bookings on your behalf. Instead, we give you the tools to make all of the reservations and arrangements.

What our clients are saying
“Quite simply, no one knows Spain better than Karen Rosenblum and the Spain Less Traveled team. Even though I have a Spanish husband, it’s Karen and her team we turn to for unique locations and authentic experience recommendations. She knows her clients better than they know themselves...”
— David
“My husband, daughter and I recently returned from an outstanding two week trip to Madrid, Granada and Barcelona. We are so fortunate to have worked with Karen who helped make this happen! Her specific knowledge of Spain beyond the mainstream, coupled with her professionalism and attention to detail provided us with an itinerary tailored to our interests and needs. We appreciate how she took the time to get to know us and answered every question and concern of ours. She gave us invaluable advice on traveling between cities, tipping, attractions, hotels and restaurants that were all on point and saved us hours of planning and researching on our own. Our trip exceeded our expectations as we were able to relax, explore and enjoy, knowing we were well prepared and informed.”
— Bob and Christine
“Thank you, Karen, for helping us put together a fabulous trip! My daughter is vegetarian and a bit of an anxious traveler and you helped us feel comfortable with our choices and offered some ideas we hadn’t considered. It was so nice to know we could choose a spot to eat on Karen’s list and it would be great. The tours and activities you suggested were all wonderful! We felt more like locals than tourists. Highly recommend using Karen to help plan your trip to Spain!”
— Laura
"As a first time traveler to Spain and one with limited experience in Europe, Karen's knowledge, professionalism and hands on assistance was invaluable. …She provided me the trip of a lifetime! I would highly recommend Karen to all my friends and anyone traveling to Spain. “
— Patricia
“I knew I wanted to plan an extended trip to Spain for our family of four, but I really didn't know where to start - and I was daunted by the thought of combing through troves of information to plan our itinerary. Karen turned out to be the perfect place to start. I filled out a questionnaire with some of the things we were hoping for, and then Karen and I got on the phone for a conversation that gave me all the ingredients I needed: an overall itinerary that took our needs and interests into account, some very practical advice for things that would make it all work, and a list of resources that I found myself turning to time and time again - both as I planned our trip and while we were on the road. Karen helped me make decisions quickly - which ultimately freed me and my family to get back to focusing on the FUN parts of travel.”
