What if the last frontier would be inside us?

Dear fellow traveler,

During centuries the human being has travelled the world in search of the last frontier. Be it reality or literature, fromJules Verne to Isaac Asimov, from Ulysses to Christopher Columbus, intrepid people of all kinds have made unbelievableefforts to get to the most distant point of the world.

Today, in the awakening of a twenty-first century where Space Travel is scheduled to be a reality, where are wesupposed to place our last frontier?

Our vision as travel agents is: nowadays we can search for new frontiers only inside ourselves.

This is the sign of our times: we travel the world to find ourselves through the experiences we face along the way.

Being it Spain, it must be about heart, passion and taste. The sun, the olive tree, the music and centuries of traditionare flowing through our veins. We can help you to feel it as well, by selecting a single moment of dedicated care.

I´ve traveled the world... to discover the trip was within

NURIA FERNÁNDEz NEVARESSince childhood I have always loved to travel, a deeply rooted habit inherited from my parents.

Very soon I decided to live abroad and studied Senior High School as an exchange student in NorthCarolina (USA). I also spent several periods living in Istanbul, an impressive metropolis so differentfrom all I had seen before. My first contact with tourism was as an escorted tour leader with Spanishgroups traveling abroad in summer, while I was studying Law at Madrid´s Complutense University. Aftergraduating I worked as a lawyer during almost 12 years, even founding my own law firm, but differentevents took me to change my professional course and start a new exciting business: SpainTop. I havealways sought to avoid conflicts and build bridges instead.

I keep traveling throughout the world and love to do it with my family. Looking at the world througha kid´s eye it is always something authentic, refreshing, emotional and surprising.

Spain is a country so rich in history, culture and great contrasts with exceptional people that easily allowme to provide enriching and inspiring experiences to those who wish to spend a few time with us.

ANTONIO GÓMEz CORONADOBeing hungry for travel and having no penny in my pocket, the only natural exit I could find to fulfill mydesire was working as a tour guide. As soon as I finished my Philosophy degree, I boarded a tourist coachand went across almost all Europe. I was so lucky to get an inside vision of the countries I visited, as Iwas always in contact with my local partners, who would give me a wider perspective of both the peopleand the culture.

After a couple of years it was clear to me that no other branch could give me so much freedom andcreativity as tourism, so when I considered my stage as a tour guide concluded, I joined some of thebiggest Travel Corporations in Spain, where I learnt most of what I know today, expanding my travelknowledge to other destinations in the world, from Vietnam to Polinesia.

After some long and exciting years working for others, I finally got to the point where you simply need totry your own way and founded my own company, where I try to express what is for me the idea of traveling:

Traveling is getting to know people, who can help you to understand better yourself. We travel just lookingfor answers. This is probably why all trips I arrange are always so intimate and I take them so personally.
