BLENDING CULTURAL PROXIMITY WITH SOCIAL DISTANCEThere may be times on tour or on the motorcoach when social distancing is required. We will take care in assuring any local guidelines are followed in a safe and comfortable way for our guests. For any cases where masks are required due to local guidelines, we ask that guests bring their own approved N95 (FFP2) masks for their own comfort and safety.

Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
Had another excellent all around trip, through Spain, with Cosmos!! All accommodations, meals, tours, & optional tours were excellent as well, so I would definitely book again with Cosmos!!
The experience overall was good but too tiring. There were couple of unnecessary stops that could have been avoided like Bilbao and the wine tasting. Bus rides were too much but could have been more entertaining rather than boring. Madrid hotel was too far away from the center.
