If you have trouble determining a destination based on deciding between the culinary delights, architectural feats, or cultural marvels, then our Southern Spain Tours are the answer.
Spain is the land of many wonders, where intricate history weaves its way into everyday life.
Where charismatic cities are like the tapas, bursting with flavours found around every corner. Where the serene countrysides are full of run down barns, rolling cattle ranches, and olive groves.
For travellers on our tours of Southern Spain, there is the chance to explore a little bit of everything.
It seems fitting that the homeland of one of the world's strongest empires is a grand showcase of art and culture.
Discover palaces such as that in Sevilla, where King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella once resided as Spain entered the golden age of discovery.
The grandeur of galleries such as the Prado found in Madrid which houses all the finest works that were collected by the Spanish Royalty, epitomize the vast wealth collected by the Iberian nation.
For those who follow history, perhaps one of the most interesting influences to cross this Iberian peninsula was not the Armada that was sent abroad, but the Moors who invaded and conquered the land.
From 711 AD, the Moors conquered Spain and left in their wake of a 700 year rule, some of the most elegant and refined cities of Europe.
Tours of Southern Spain visit Granada, a city with rich history set against the backdrop of the majestic Sierra Nevada mountains, Spain's highest mountain range.
Wander the cobblestone alleyways of this ancient city, with tapas bars serenading visitors with flamenco music, tempting with spicy aromas, and begging for a leisurely visit with sangria on special.
Known as the city of castles, it is the allure of the Moorish palace of Alhambra that brings people to this region.
The Islamic decor and landscaped gardens found within this 13th century fortress are sure to impress, as will the ornate and precise 'lace in stone' architectural details found within the embellished palace. There is no doubt, in Europe, this monument is without rival.
There are many more impressive Moorish sites beyond the Alhambra. The Alcazar Palace, a 14th century palace, is set in the picture-perfect city of Andalucia, complete with restored Andalusian architecture, orange groves, castanet-rattling Gypsies and flower-filled patios.
In Cordoba, our tours of Southern Spain visit the Mezquita-Catedral, or Great Mosque of Cordoba, one of the oldest structures still standing which was built by the descendants of the exiled Umayyads.
Away from the city we partake in visits to 25,000 year old Neolithic and Paleolithic drawings found in the Pileta Caves, and step into a bullring after a visit to a bull breeding farm to understand a controversial part of current culture without having to witness the act of bullfighting.
We will peer into the dramatic escarpments and views that are found on the southern end of this dynamic country.
With vast treasures spanning thousands of years, tours of Southern Spain are sure to leave visitors speechless, and always eager for more.

Day 1 Arrive in Madrid
Today we arrive in Madrid and transfer to our hotel.
The capital of Spain, located in the heart of the peninsula and right in the center of the Castillian plain, is a cosmopolitan city, a business center, headquarters for the Public Administration, Government, Spanish Parliament and the home of the Spanish Royal Family.
Overnight in Madrid.
Included Meal(s): Dinner
Day 2 Madrid & The Prado
This morning we have a panoramic tour of broader Madrid, terminating at the Prado Museum for a guided tour. Our route to the museum likely takes us past Plaza Espana point and the Cervantes Monument.
Originally opened to the public in 1819, the Prado houses all of the finest works collected by Spanish Royalty as well as Spanish paintings gathered from other sources over the past two centuries. The Prado is one of the most important repositories of art in the world, including a vast collection of Italian paintings. For the purposes of our visit, however, we will concentrate on works by Spanish masters -- Velasquez, Goya, Ribera, El Greco, Zurbaran, to name a few.
After our tour, we'll head off on foot for an informal stroll up Gran Via and into the old quarter of Madrid. You'll then have free time for lunch and an afternoon of independent exploration. Your Tour Leader can help you plan your free time, with recommended shopping, other historical sites and galleries. You may want to visit the nearby Reina Sofia for the important modern art collection, including Picasso's masterpiece, "Guernica." Or visit the Museo Naval, one of the world's most important Navy Museums, to learn about the history of the Spanish Armada.
Overnight in Madrid.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner

Day 3 Madrid: Toledo Day Trip
This morning we travel to Toledo, a city with a unique blend of Arab, Jewish, Christian, Roman, and Visigothic elements. Toledo sits on a rocky promontory isolated on three sides by a looping gorge of the Tagus River. The history of several different cultures is contained within this region, represented by the houses, synagogues, churches, and mosques.
Our excursion includes a visit to the Cathedral, as well as the Santa Maria la Blanca Synagogue, which shows the influence of the Granada Moors.
We also see one of Toledo's most outstanding attractions, El Greco's masterpiece "The Burial of the Count of Orgaz" located inside the Church of Santo Tome.
After lunch and some free time in Toledo, we return to Madrid.
Overnight in Madrid.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner
Day 4 Madrid - Cordoba: City Tour
Today we travel by fast train to Cordoba (+/- 2 hours), crossing the Despenaperros Mountains and the border pass between Castile and Andalucia.
During our time in Cordoba (a World Heritage City), we will gain a sense of the city's long and varied past and multicultural nature. Our tour starts at the Roman Bridge and the Calahorra Tower, an Arab defensive tower. Next we arrive at the Mezquita-Catedral, or Great Mosque of Cordoba, one of the oldest structures still standing from the time Muslims ruled Al-Andalus. The buildings on this site are as complex as the extraordinarily rich history they illustrate. Historians believe that there had first been a temple to the Roman god, Janus, on this site. The temple was converted into a church by invading Visigoths who seized Cordoba in 572. Next, the church was converted into a mosque and then completely rebuilt by the descendants of the exiled Umayyads -- the first Islamic dynasty who had originally ruled from their capital Damascus (in present-day Syria) from 661 until 750.
We visit the Alcazar fortress, built by King Alfonso XI, and containing mosaics and sarcophagi.
Finally we will have a stroll in the Jewish Quarter where the synagogue is located.
Please note: Our official meal plan for today is "breakfast & dinner"; however, due to other variables, however (such as hotel location), your Tour Leader may choose to include lunch instead of dinner today. You will, of course, be advised in advance.
Overnight in Cordoba.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner
Day 5 Cordoba - Granada
Our tour continues to Granada, set in the heart of Andalucia with the majestic Sierra Nevada mountains as a backdrop. Conquered by the Moors in AD 711, Granada blossomed into one of Europe's wealthiest and most refined cities. The legacy of Granada's rich history and heritage remain visible throughout the city centre with its cobblestone streets and lovely plazas. In 1992 Granada celebrated the 500th anniversary of the Christian re-conquest by the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand, and Isabella.
On arrival we visit the Royal Chapel, featuring tombs carved out of marble by the Tuscan sculptor Domenico Fancelli. As both Queen Isabel and King Fernando died before the Royal Chapel was finished, they were first buried in the Friary of San Francisco in the Alhambra. They were then later moved to the chapel once it had been completed, and buried alongside King Felipe and Queen Juana. Although their original idea was for all future Spanish Kings and Queens to be buried here, this did not happen as the monastery in El Escorial was used instead.
Overnight in Granada.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner
Day 6 Granada: The Alhambra
The focus of our sightseeing today is Granada's main attraction, the Alhambra, a mighty fortress that houses an extraordinarily delicate and beautiful Moorish palace begun in the 13th century. This was the palace of the Nasrid Sultans, rulers of the last Spanish Moorish Kingdom. A fantasy of "lace in stone" surrounded by arabesque gardens and fountains, it affords superb views of the Old Quarter and Sacromonte, a mountain occupied by gypsy cave dwellers. In many ways, the Alhambra represents the Moorish concept of life itself -- something glorious to be ennobled by learning and enlivened by every kind of pleasure.
We also visit the nearby Generalife Gardens.
The balance of the day is at leisure for independent exploration, or you can join your Tour Leader on an informal stroll in the city's old Moorish quarter of the Albaicin.
Overnight in Granada.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner
Day 7 Granada - Reserva Tauro - Ronda: Town Tour
We continue our tour (by road) to Ronda, a historic town located on a towering plateau in the mountains of Malaga Province.
En route we visit Reserva Tauro, a 500 acre bull and horse breeding farm. Here we have the opportunity to get close to bulls and gain an understanding of the culture without attending a bull fight. Of course this cultural/historical practice is controversial, but the farm does a good job in presenting bull fighting in an even, objective way without in any way promoting or excusing it.
In Ronda, we will walk around the old town where you will learn the origins of this ancient town where Romans, Arabs, and Christians left their traces. We'll visit the Casa Museo Don Bosco, which offers a unique glimpse into the life and work of Saint John Bosco, a 19th-century Italian Catholic priest known for his work with young people. We'll explore the museum's collections, which include personal items of Don Bosco, historical documents, and artifacts related to his work.
Ronda is of course famous for its dramatic escarpments and views, and for the deep El Tajo gorge that carries the Rio Guadalevin through its centre. We suggest a walk to the 18th century Puente Nuevo 'new' bridge, which straddles the 100m/328 ft chasm below, for its unparalleled views out over the Serrania de Ronda mountains.
Overnight in Ronda.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Dinner
Day 8 Ronda - Pileta Caves - Olive Oil Tour - Sevilla
Today we travel to Seville via a stop at the well-preserved rock paintings at the Pileta Caves (walking required on wet stone with no hand rails - speak to your leader for further guidance). The 25,000 year old Neolithic and Paleolithic drawings of black, ochre, and red are mostly just lines or patterns, but there are also horses, goats, cattle, and a rare giant fish, made from a mixture of clay and fat. This is not a well-developed tourist attraction; you must be steady on your feet and prepared for some slow walking.
We then follow the route known as "the Route of the White Villages" for the singularity of the scenery. The villages -- Pueblos Blancos -- are a series of whitewashed towns and villages in the northern part of the provinces of Cádiz and Málaga, mostly within the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park. These charming settlements feature whitewashed houses festooned with pots of colourful flowers, mountain vistas, and traces of the Islamic and Christian past.
For a bit of a break we stop briefly in the White Town of Grazalema, a white hill down nestled in Grazalema National Park, before continuing to a visit to one of the region's olive oil producers for a tour and lunch (included instead of dinner today). The region is renown for extra virgin olive oil, which transmits all the aroma, the flavour, and the essence of the olive groves of Zahara de la Sierra. The process is difficult and extreme, with steep slopes which require manual caretaking and harvesting; the reward is a very fruity, sweet, and gentle flavour partly due to high rainfall in the area. We will learn all about this process and have a chance to taste both the oil and the wine also made locally. Our visit will culminate with a lunch typical of the region with an assortment of tapas, local cheeses, fruits and other sweets (vegatarians are well-catered for).
After a relaxing lunch, we proceed to Sevilla arriving late afternoon. Though we don't include dinner this evening, our hotel is well-placed and your Tour Leader will provide suggestions for your free time.
Overnight in Sevilla.
Included Meal(s): Breakfast and Lunch
Day 9 Sevilla: City Tour
Seville, a vibrant tapestry of Andalusian charm, is the fourth-largest city in Spain and the cultural heart of the region. Its picturesque streets are lined with restored Moorish architecture, fragrant orange groves, and flower-filled patios. The city's lively atmosphere is further enhanced by the rhythmic sounds of castanets, a hallmark of Seville's flamenco heritage.
During our visit, we'll immerse ourselves in Seville's rich history and architectural wonders. The Seville Cathedral, the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, boasts stunning stained glass windows, a magnificent choir, and numerous chapels. (Time-permitting) ascend the iconic Giralda Tower for breathtaking panoramic views of the city.
Step back in time at the Alcázar Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Europe's oldest royal residences. Explore its intricate Moorish architecture, lush gardens, and grand halls.
Along the banks of the Guadalquivir River, we'll encounter historic landmarks such as the Maestranza Bullring, a symbol of Seville's bullfighting tradition, and the Torre del Oro, a 13th-century watchtower.
For a contemporary touch, admire the Monument to Tolerance by Eduardo Chillida, a striking sculpture that symbolizes peace and understanding.the Guadalquivir riverbank and view historic monuments like the Maestranza Bullring, the Torre del Oro, and the Monument to the Tolerance by Eduardo Chillida.
Overnight in Sevilla.

Seasonality and Weather
The best times to visit Iberia are spring (March-May), when the country is in bloom and waking after the winter, and fall (September/October), when the weather is warm and summer crowds have dispersed.
SPRING
Our early spring date coincides with a time of year when Iberia emerges from its long winter slumber and, while there’s still the odd shower and chilly day, the first whiff of spring is in the air, with days steadily getting milder and sunnier and the countryside awash with blossom. It can also be very peaceful time to visit, as the crowds of the peak season have not yet arrived. Flights can also cost much less than they would two months later. Our later spring date (April/May) will be a bit drier and warmer - maybe even "hot" to the south and inland - and the more popular spots will start to see some crowds.
FALL
September and October are two of the best months to visit. The weather is still warm and pleasant, and the temperatures are much more manageable than summer for sightseeing or outdoor activities. Sites generally tend to be a bit busier than one may encounter in spring, especially those places where cruise ships call, but the place still has a relaxed feel away from the coastal resort areas. A big bonus this time of year is the myriad locally-grown fruits and vegetables that find their way onto local menus.
Transport and Travel Conditions
Land transport throughout by private air-conditioned motor coach, 24-36 seats depending on ultimate group size (see 'group size'). Though we will have some full bus days, road travel is not particularly arduous as there are plenty of stops of interest.
Train journeys are comfortable (2nd class). YOU MUST BE ABLE TO MANAGE YOUR OWN BAGS ON/OFF TRAINS AND IN TRAIN STATIONS. Please also note that, due to the narrow and winding nature of the streets and the size of our vehicle, we may need to park some distance away from our hotels in Granada, Córdoba, and Rhonda and walk our luggage a short distance.
This trip is typical of most of our European tours, which are ambitious and involve full days of travel and sightseeing. While we don't have any actual strenuous activity (ie hiking) built into the program, you will do a lot of walking on this trip. These walks will mostly be in the form of walking tours of towns and cities and short walks to dinner. Being Europe, and a hilly/mountainous area, cobbles, uneven surfaces, and slopes/stairs are common. If you are accustomed to typical "bus tours," which rely heavily on vehicular transport for all sightseeing activities, you should be aware that this tour is considerably more active.
Am I suitable for this tour? Please refer to our self-assessment form.
Activity Level: 2
These are particularly busy tours that feature a lot of moving around, sometimes by train and short journeys on local transport. Walking tours of towns and cities are leisurely but you should be prepared to be on your feet for several hours. Some of our cultural trips that occur at high altitude and/or require greater independence with baggage handling (at hotels, airports, train stations) also fall into this category.
To learn more about the Activity levels, please visit our tour styles page.
Accommodation
Well-located, air-conditioned, mid-range hotels (3 star) throughout. All hotels have en suite bath, though some may have shower only. Porter service is sometimes available though you should be independent with your luggage. Single rooms are limited and likely smaller than twins.
Staff and Support
Tour Leader throughout, driver, local step-on guides in various locales.
Group Size
Maximum 18 (plus Tour Leader)
Tour Extensions
This tour is part of a series that can be upgraded to make for a longer trip. For more options, please refer to tour code/s:

Separated only by the Strait of Gibraltar, Spain and Morocco tours venture to two countries worlds apart but intricately woven together through history.
While both are incredibly scenic, each has a unique flavour and perspective to present. Journey from Madrid to Casablanca to taste, smell, and experience the rich culture of both countries.
When the Moors invaded the Iberian peninsula in 711 AD, their presence would leave a lasting impression on the Spanish countryside until present day. In their wake they left a myriad of architectural wonders.
Our Spain and Morocco tours visit their masterpiece of the Alhambra in Granada, a palace complex set amongst the backdrop of the stunning Sierra Nevada mountains, the highest mountains of Spain.
We will wander the cobblestone alleyways of this medieval city, spy the Islamic decor and landscaped gardens found within this 13th century fortress with extraordinarily ornate 'lace in stone' details found within the palace. Without a doubt, this monument is without rival in Europe.
Beyond the Alhambra are many more impressive Moorish sites. In Cordoba, Spain and Morocco tours visit the Great Mosque of Cordoba, one of the oldest structures still standing which was built by the descendants of the exiled Umayyads.
The Alcazar Palace in Sevilla, is a 14th century palace set in the picture-perfect image of Andalucia, complete with orange groves and flower-filled patios.
It was here where King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella once resided and finally conquered the Moors, freeing their lands from 700 years of Moorish rule. The Catholic Monarchs would go on to create papal decree for the Spanish Empire that would colonize the Americas and claim them for Spain.
It is after Sevilla that the Spain and Morocco tours jump the continent, leaving behind Europe and venturing to Africa.
From the Strait of Gibraltar the first entrance into Morocco showcases a blend of North Africa, Spain, Portugal and France. But also a country drenched in exotic mystery, interesting history, beautiful vistas, and friendly people.
It is by exploring the imperial cities of Morocco (Fez, Meknes and Rabat) that one begins to understand the nuances of this ancient land.
Wander the labyrinth of alleys and lanes lined with shops, mosques, homes and schools in the historic cities that were once the capitals.
The souks and squares in each town offer a chance to see locals wares such as carpets and pottery, two artistic pursuits for which the Moroccans are known for. The smell of mint tea never seems far away and the cities themselves seem to have changed little over the centuries.
Away from the imperial cities, it is the mountainous backbones of the High and Middle Atlas mountains that leave even intrepid travellers in awe. Folded mountains and high, windswept plateaux, vast forests of cork oak and cedar, and lakes and streams full of trout are the qualities that make up this Berber country, with sheep and goat-rearing as the main occupation.
Spain and Morocco tours offer the chance to stand on the shifting sands of Mergouza, sand dunes reaching heights of more than 45 metres (148 ft) with their colour shifting from pink to gold to red to white depending on the time of day.
From Madrid to Casablanca, Spain and Morocco tours are for the curious. For those who love a mix of metropolitan and traditional, historic and artistic, spicy yet sweet. For those looking to find UNESCO world heritage sites and memorable landscapes around every corner.

Take an adventure through the heart of Spain on our Spain: North & South tour and see how a country that has so much to offer in terms of history, architectural achievements, natural beauty and cultural assortment not only serves as the prime location for a relaxing vacation, but also a place that satisfies many life-long desires.
The size and intricacies of the cathedrals, mosques and synagogues will compel even those who are not so easily impressed to keep their cameras at the ready.
See how the San Isidoro Collegiate Church in Leon is a perfect example of 13th century Gothic style, or examine the Baroque style of the Cathedral of San Jeronimo College in Santiago de Compostela.
Let the power of the Despenaperros Mountains or the allure of the Tagus River instill a sense of awe that might just inspire a deeper sense of appreciation of nature.
Meet those who tend the graceful horses of the quaint town of Jerez and maybe see how some make their renowned sherry wine. This adventure is a continual learning experience and never lacks excitement.

One look at the mountains framing the sky or the lakes that mirror any beauty that happens to be above the calm surface and we will come to understand how it feels to be in a utopia. On our Spain & Morocco tour you can explore utopia.
The elegant buildings throughout the city seem as intricately placed as the cobblestones that line the streets.
Take a simple stroll along alleyways lined with balconies supporting flowerbeds overflowing with colour and we will learn to use the word 'quaint' a little more mindfully.
Massive monasteries and cathedrals known to humble any onlooker, not only stand on the northern shores of the Mediterranean, but they are also south of the waters of Morocco.
The continuous wonderment will not disappoint, especially when we witness how the majesty of the Roman Empire endures through its many structures left behind.

Explore the rich history and cultural diversity of Portugal and Spain. Witness the layers of history in cities like Coimbra, where Roman, Moorish, and Christian influences converge.
Discover the vibrant capital of Lisbon, a city where ancient traditions blend seamlessly with modern life. Embark on a journey through the Douro Valley, the birthplace of Port wine, and experience the stunning landscapes and historic vineyards.
In Santiago de Compostela, delve into the spiritual heart of Galicia and marvel at the magnificent Romanesque cathedral. Explore the multicultural city of Toledo, where Jewish, Muslim, and Christian cultures once coexisted.
Finally, visit the awe-inspiring Cathedral-Mosque of Córdoba, a unique architectural masterpiece that reflects the city's complex past.

Both Spain and Morocco serve as perfect examples as to why flying to the other side of the world could be one of the most important life decisions made by anyone.
The insight gained on our Spain & Morocco tour into a distant history cannot be as easily achieved through reading history books or looking at photos in glossy travel magazines; it's a walk through a monastery in Madrid or it's meeting Moroccans who live among the rubble of the Roman Empire that really put things into perspective.
Just when we think we've absorbed all there is to absorb in these two countries, we will be faced with a natural environment that is known to overwhelm.
The sun moving along the lush forests just outside of Fes, Morocco, or the snow-capped mountains of Spain emanating a sense of perfection from top to bottom justifies those who admit, now and again, that sometimes the grass is greener on the other side.

This extensive Spain and Morocco tour provides enough time for those who are fond of exploration to turn over as many stones as possible in the course of 31 days.
This is a perfect setting because every corner to be turned yields the chance for fresh astonishment.
The artistry visible in the architecture in both countries seems to be subject to the magnetism of the topography.
Every nuance of the land will make for the longest memory, from the sprawling lakes reflecting the mountaintops, to the vast horizon that seems to serve as perfect foundation for a setting sun.
Each sight will seem like an element of perfection that is unique to this particular time and place.
Behind every immaculate site is a story and the histories of Spain and Morocco seem fitting to the countries' physical variations.

Our Portugal, Spain and Morocco tour is one solid 32-day adventure that will leave us with a stronger desire to expose ourselves to more worldly experiences.
Once in Portugal, we will have the chance to see the country's collection of Gothic and Renaissance churches.
They seem to coincide with the country's natural beauty so well that it seems as if the structures were extensions of the land itself.
Glancing upon the antiquity in the halls of the Muse Archaelogique in Casablanca in Morocco can be compared to looking over a missing chapter in our history books.
The most important lesson that this journey can impart is, "discovery does not end here."

If we are to conjure up images of Portugal, we might picture white-stone balconies supporting various arrangements of flower pots.
When thinking about Spain, we might imagine towering cathedrals.
Morocco brings to mind large dunes of glowing-orange sand that slowly fades as the sun sinks behind them.
This 37-day Portugal, Spain & Morocco Tour is the perfect opportunity for those who are slightly curious to take the chance in experiencing these details first-hand rather than relying on flights of the imagination that could never do these countries justice.
Come see the streets of Lisbon, Portugal, the Gothic Cathedral of Segovia, Spain, and the majesty of the sand dunes in Merzouga, Morocco, and bring new definition to what you imagine these stellar destinations to be about.

*The red tour trail on the map does not represent the actual travel path.
The following is a list of sample hotels at some locations included on this tour. The hotels shown here are meant to provide a general sense of the standard of hotel we usually aim for; they are not necessarily confirmed for your chosen departure.
The main advantage lies in being less than one hundred metres from the great Mezquita of Cordova. You will almost feel like touching history when you look out of the window of your room and contemplate such a close up view of the second largest mosque in the world.
