Testimonials
What travelers are saying
“From start to finish, the entire journey was meticulously planned and executed with precision and care. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to Europe to travel with Second Summer again.”
“My trip to Galicia was amazing! I didn't have any preconceived notions about the region, but I was pleasantly surprised when I discovered its beauty. The majority of the time I spent in picturesque Vigo near the ocean. I took a boat tour one of the days where I had fresh mussels, and another day I visited the Illa de Toxa with its cute shops and views. Thanks to Ikram for being an excellent tour guide and taking me around to discover a little of Galicia!”
“Booking a trip with Second Summer was worth every penny. The best part is, it is affordable on any budget you are on. Ikram was a thoughtful guide and able to combine all my interests and the interests of the others in the group.”
“I really enjoyed experiencing Barcelona with Ikram and being hosted by her. She is so naturally gifted and in tune with any city she lives in and that was very evident in the time that we spent together.”
“To say the trip was well worth it doesn’t do it justice. The trip exceeded our expectations and we’ve created great memories which will stay with us for a lifetime. Ikram took great care of us from the time we landed at the airport to when we left. Thank you for all the amazing memories.”
