From Madrid to Barcelona, enjoy standout sights, great food and easy travel days
Spain tours bring together big-city energy, coastal scenery and layers of history, which makes it easy to experience a lot in a relatively short time. Many itineraries center on well-connected hubs such as Madrid, Barcelona and Bilbao, combining guided walks with relaxed evenings and straightforward day trips. If you want a balance of structure and independence, you can choose classic bus tours or city explorer stays, and some routes even add scenic rail journeys through the Pyrenees. A handful of tours also extend into countries such as France, Portugal or the United Kingdom, while Spain remains the main highlight throughout.

Best of Southern Spain & Portugal - 14 daysThis 14-day tour covers Spain and Portugal's highlights. In Barcelona, we explore Gaudi’s works and enjoy a catamaran cruise. We visit Valencia, Granada’s Alhambra, and Seville’s cathedral. In Madrid, we see the Royal Palace, enjoy free time to explore at leisure and tuck into tapas. Then it's onwards to Portugal, where we explore Porto and take a river cruise, ride boats along the canals of Aveiro, and tour Coimbra’s university. We visit Batalha Monastery and Nazare, and end our journey in the capital, Lisbon.Worldwide Touring14My standout was the flamenco show, I really loved the experience. Nazare also a good experience, no large waves that day but guide took the time to walk us down to the lighthouse to experience it. Coimbra was a really nice experience as well, such a lovely town. A lot of nice experiences. Eduardo an excellent guide but he had no idea we were travelling on to Lisbon from Madrid but made enquiries for us about going forward.
Jewels of Spain, Portugal & Morocco - 21 days Uncover the best of Spain, Portugal and Morocco on this 21-day coach tour, which starts and ends in Madrid. Enjoy guided sightseeing in the Spanish capital, as well as Porto, Lisbon, Casablanca, Marrakech, Fes and more! Explore the mighty cathedral in Seville and Granada's spectacular Alhambra fortress. Cruise the Douro River in Porto and enjoy a canal boat ride in Aveiro. Visit the enchanting blue city of Chefchaouen, see the famous Rock of Gibraltar and watch a traditional Fado show.
Worldwide Touring21I loved Spain and Gibraltar especially. The whole trip I loved really… informative The itinerary changed. There was no communication about this. The quality of hotels varied from what we were promised. The final night in Rabat for example was not good at all. So - poor communication. Changes big notified
Pyrenees by Train - 8 daysEmbark on an 8-day train tour of the Spanish and French Pyrenees, spending seven nights in the beautiful town of Roses on the Costa Brava. Ride the Roses Express into Cap de Creus Nature Park, take the Little Yellow Train through the French Pyrenees, and visit the UNESCO-listed town of Villefranche-de-Conflent. Discover the Spanish Pyrenees via the Nuria rack railway and journey on the Red Train from Rivesaltes to Axat through stunning landscapes. End your tour with a visit to Figueres and the Dali Museum, showcasing the works of Salvador Dali.
Worldwide Touring8Villefrance de Conflent Roses itself had little of interest. I suppose that people interested in the beach would find it more to their liking. For me, Figueres seemed a more logical hub, closer to the trips into the Pyrenees.
Jewels of Spain, Portugal & Morocco - 21 days Uncover the best of Spain, Portugal and Morocco on this 21-day coach tour, which starts and ends in Madrid. Enjoy guided sightseeing in the Spanish capital, as well as Porto, Lisbon, Casablanca, Marrakech, Fes and more! Explore the mighty cathedral in Seville and Granada's spectacular Alhambra fortress. Cruise the Douro River in Porto and enjoy a canal boat ride in Aveiro. Visit the enchanting blue city of Chefchaouen, see the famous Rock of Gibraltar and watch a traditional Fado show.
Worldwide Touring21In general the trip was well planned. The itinerary allowed us to see and explore beautiful locations. Whilst providing adequate free time. It’s difficult to rate tour guides in one question as we had 4. Ben in Morocco was excellent as were local guides. Some Accommodation was out of town. The itinerary could also include requirements for that day. Ie. if ID or shoulder wrap required. So we can be prepared. Some tour leaders not as flexible when a slight change could be more enjoyable. Ie skip a long lunch and spend more free in the next location. Set menus very seafood oriented.

He was good company, very helpful and always felt safe in the car with him. The private tour guides were all very knowledgeable about their cities. The second week on the bus was also very good. Some of the hotels were a bit far from the centre of town.

Spain tours at a glance
Trip and guiding style
Spain tours are available as group trips or city explorer stays, and many are designed as partly guided experiences with set sightseeing in key locations and free time built in. Some itineraries are fully guided, with a tour leader from start to finish, supported by local guides for major visits. Many departures operate with trusted local partners, offering clear day-to-day planning and practical support throughout.
Accommodation
Hotels are typically 3 star or 4 star, or a combination of 3–4 star, depending on the itinerary and location. Some tours keep you in one base for several nights, while others change hotels as you move through different regions. Where availability is limited, an alternative property of a similar standard may be used.
Trip pacing
Pace varies by itinerary, from slower, more settled stays to faster routes that cover multiple cities in a short timeframe. Many tours are rated easy and rely on bus travel, with guided city sightseeing followed by time at leisure. Travel days can include early departures, particularly on routes with longer drives and several planned stops.

What you'll see in Spain
Iconic Spanish places, from grand capitals to northern coasts
Spain tours often start in Madrid, where grand plazas, broad boulevards and lively evenings set the tone, before continuing to Barcelona for its distinctive architecture and energetic street life. Many itineraries include Girona, valued for its old-town character, and some routes also feature Zaragoza and Poblet Abbey, adding depth beyond the main cities. In the north, Bilbao is frequently paired with the coastline, with time in San Sebastian and opportunities for local food stops and scenic walks by the sea. For travelers who prefer a single base, some city explorer trips stay in Roses on the Costa Brava, mixing beach time with optional excursions and, on certain itineraries, a scenic train ride. Other destinations that appear on a range of tours include Granada, Seville and Valencia, each adding another perspective on Spain’s landscapes, culture and regional identity.

Why visit Spain
Big cities, coastal breaks and local flavour, linked by smart itineraries
Spain works particularly well for guided tours because the distances are manageable, the highlights are varied, and you can cover major sights without having to organize every detail yourself. In Madrid, many itineraries combine landmark sightseeing with the city’s evening atmosphere, so places like Plaza Mayor and neighbourhoods such as La Latina sit naturally alongside guided introductions to the capital. Barcelona offers a contrasting mood, with striking architecture and a constant street buzz, and some routes add Girona for a quieter day with a more historic feel. Northern Spain is another standout, especially for travelers drawn to Atlantic views and a strong food culture. Tours around Bilbao and San Sebastian can blend guided walks, time by the waterfront and local flavours such as pintxos, creating days that feel both curated and relaxed. If you prefer a more settled rhythm, city explorer tours use one base with day trips, which means you unpack once while still seeing a broad mix of Spain.
Frequently asked questions
Are Spain tours fully guided or partially guided?
It depends on the trip and the style of itinerary. Many Spain tours are partly guided, with organized sightseeing in key places and free time between scheduled activities. Some are fully guided, with a tour leader throughout, plus local guides for included visits where specialist context adds value.
Do Spain tours include Madrid and Barcelona?
Many Spain tours include both Madrid and Barcelona, usually with an included city tour and extra time to explore independently. Depending on the itinerary, you may also visit places such as Girona, Zaragoza, Bilbao or San Sebastian, which can shift the overall feel from classic city highlights to a more regional experience.
What is a city explorer tour in Spain?
A city explorer tour is based in one location for the duration, with day trips that return to the same accommodation each night. In Spain, this format suits travelers who prefer less packing, a more predictable routine, and easy access to nearby sights.
Are Spain tours suitable for travelers who prefer an easy fitness level?
Many Spain tours are rated easy, with transport included between stops and city sightseeing that is primarily on foot. Even so, some days can feel busy on faster itineraries with multiple stops, so comfortable walking shoes and a reasonable level of mobility are recommended.
Do Spain tours visit northern Spain like Bilbao and San Sebastian?
Yes, some Spain tours focus on the north, including time in Bilbao and San Sebastian and, on certain routes, nearby coastal locations. These itineraries typically combine guided touring with free time, and they appeal to travelers interested in sea views, city culture and regional food.
Are any Spain tours multi-country?
Yes. Some itineraries that feature Spain also continue into other countries, which can be a good fit if you want Spain as part of a broader European trip while still spending meaningful time in key Spanish destinations.
What is transport like on Spain tours?
Transport varies by itinerary, but many Spain tours use a private bus for links between cities, often with planned stops to break up longer journeys. Some trips also include scenic train rides, which can be a comfortable, low-stress way to experience the landscape while traveling between regions.
What meals are included on Spain tours?
This depends on the itinerary. Some Spain tours include breakfast daily, and a few also include dinners on selected nights, while other trips leave meals more flexible so you can choose where and what to eat. Your chosen tour itinerary will confirm exactly what is included.
What is accommodation like on Spain tours?
Accommodation varies by itinerary, and in busy periods an alternative hotel of the same general standard may be used if planned properties are fully reserveed. Some tours stay in one base for a more settled experience, while others change accommodation as you travel between cities and regions.
What group size can be expected on Spain tours?
Group size varies depending on the itinerary and travel style, with some bus tours operating with larger groups and others running with fewer travelers. On bilingual departures, English may be used alongside another language, and local guides may join the group for key visits and included sightseeing.
