Itinerary
Day 1 Seville
Make your way to your hotel and check into your room. Navigate the labyrinth of cobblestoned streets of the Santa Cruz district as you make your way to the beautiful Alcázar de Seville, a Moorish palace complex which is still in use today by the Royal Family. Head round the corner to admire the intricate architecture of Seville Cathedral and La Giralda, one of the largest cathedrals in the world.
Days 2-3 Seville
Amble the pretty orange tree lined streets to Plaza de España, the most famous square in Seville, and marvel at the multicoloured Andalusian benches, representing the Spanish provinces. Take a stroll through the verdant Maria Luisa Park, an oasis of peace in the city, filled with trees, colourful flowers and fountains. Head to the old quarter to see the Setas de Sevilla, the largest wooden construction in the world, and walk the wooden pathway on top of the parasols whilst admiring the remarkable views of the city. On your final evening in this gorgeous city, cross the Guadalquivir River to the Tirana district to enjoy a spectacular flamenco show in an authentic tablao and indulge in a tasty tapas meal.
Day 4 Seville - Córdoba
After a leisurely morning, make your way to the train station for your short journey to Córdoba. Upon arrival, check in to your hotel before heading out to the city. Wander the winding streets of the old town, appreciating the patios adorned with colourful flowers and historic monuments and spend the afternoon admiring the extraordinary blend of architectural styles of the UNESCO World Heritage 11th Century Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba.
Day 5 Córdoba
After breakfast, head out to the Alcázar Fortress of the Christian Monarchs, a former royal residence and explore the magnificent gardens. Cross the Guadalquivir River over the stunning Roman bridge, originally constructed in the 1st Century, to the Calahorra Tower.
Day 6 Córdoba - Granada
Following a final stroll around the various shops, make your way to the train station for your onward journey. Upon arrival in Granada, a lovely city at the base of the Sierra Nevada mountains, head to your hotel and check in. Get your bearings by meandering the narrow-cobbled streets of the Albaicin district, admiring the traditional Carmen houses enroute, and passing the whitewashed buildings and hidden squares in the Jewish Quarter. This evening, go to Triunfo Gardens to see the fountains lit with multicoloured lights.
Day 7 Granada
Today, visit the iconic Alhambra, a spectacular Moorish palace and fortress decked with sunning frescoes, decorated columns and arches and courtyards dotted with burbling fountains. Explore the beautiful hillside gardens of the Generalife Palace just next door with breathtaking views of the Rivers Darro and Genil. After a day of exploring the historic sites, indulge in some typical tapas in one of the local restaurants.
Day 8 Granada
After a leisurely morning at your hotel, make your way to the airport for your flight home.
Additional Options: With a few extra days why not add a stop in Ronda, a mountaintop city and home to El Tajo Gorge. Alternatively, spend a few days relaxing at one of the many splendid beach resorts.
