Royal palaces, flamenco passion, Moorish heritage, and the soul of Andalusia
Dive into the passionate heart of Spain — from Madrid's royal grandeur and world-class art to Seville's flamenco rhythms, Granada's Alhambra palace, Córdoba's mosque-cathedral, and Bilbao's avant-garde Guggenheim. This 10-day journey through Southern Spain and the Basque Country captures the country's incredible diversity — Moorish palaces, Gothic cathedrals, cutting-edge modern art, and tapas bars that never sleep.
The Alhambra, Mezquita, and Alcázar are testaments to 800 years of Moorish rule that shaped Spain's architecture, food, and soul. These palaces and mosques-turned-cathedrals are among the most beautiful buildings on Earth.
From the Prado's old masters to Picasso's Guernica to Gehry's Guggenheim — Spain's artistic journey spans 400 years of genius. This itinerary puts you at the heart of that story.
Seville's flamenco in Triana is raw and real — not a tourist show. Madrid's tapas crawl on Cava Baja is a nightly ritual. Bilbao's pintxos bars are Basque culinary art. Eating and drinking is central to Spanish life.
