Which one for whom?

Why Spain?

It is recommended to visit Spain in spring and autumn. A stay of at least four days is suggested. It is a country that should be explored with a group of friends.

Spain is a country filled with historical and cultural riches. It is recommended to visit between April and June or September and October. It offers an experience filled with places and activities to explore for at least four days. Traveling with a group of friends will enhance the enjoyment of this beautiful country.

Why Italy?

Rome, Florence, and Venice. Three cities are enough. The real question is which one you decide, together, to linger in.

Italy is the easiest home a group trip can have, and the plan that comes apart the fastest. You each arrive with a list: the Colosseum, a bridge, a gondola. The list is fine. Set the pace wrong and the city turns into a queue.
