Cuenca is a city in central Spain. Cuenca is located across a steep spur, whose slopes descend into deep gorges of the Jucar and Huecar rivers. It is divided into two separate settlements: the "new" city is situated south-west of the old one, which is divided by the Huecar course. Cuenca has strongly bet on culture and as a result of this it was declared a World Heritage site in 1996. Main sights include : Cathedral of Our Lady of Grace and Saint Julian; Church of Saint Peter; Bishop's Palace; The Castle and more.

We just returned from our honeymoon to Italy - we used your site to plan virtually the whole trip. I don’t have to tell you what a powerful tool you have created. We planned the perfect trip, and RoutePerfect delivered. We saved a lot using RoutePerfect, which was evident at every place we stayed and checked their rates. I was raving about your site before we left, and we will be telling everyone about it.

I think your product is awesome. It helped a lot with the planning of my trip, which I did with a friend from high school. I had no problem with the site and the vouchers worked very well at each check in. Thanks!
