Spain

It might be known for its beaches, and indeed destinations like the Costa del Sol and San Sebastian are perfect for sunseekers. But there is far more to Spain as a cultural destination. Highlights include Gaudi’s Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, and the Alhambra in Granada. Whilst Madrid, Seville, Bilbao and elsewhere are wonderful cities to explore. Whilst in Spain, it’s also easy to hop across the border to Portugal, or to take the ferry across the Strait of Gibraltar to Morocco!

Famous for

People travel to Spain for all sorts of reasons. Here are three of the most popular!

Delectable cuisine

Whether tucking into tapas down a charming back street in Madrid, sampling fresh paella at a local market or stopping for a bite on La Rambla in Barcelona, Spain is as much a foodie destination as Italy!

Beaches

Yes, we know we already said there is more to Spain than the beach. And there is! But that doesn’t mean a few days of sun, sea and sand on the idyllic Costa del Sol isn’t very much welcome after a few days of cultural touring!

Architecture

The vibrant colours and unique design of Gaudi’s work in Barcelona takes some beating. But Granada’s Alhambra fortress and Seville’s mighty mosque-cathedral certainly give it a run for its money!

Our tours get you to the beating heart of Spain, from the city sights of Madrid to the beaches of the Costa del Sol and even into neighbouring Portugal and Morocco!
