Visit spellbinding world heritage sights such as the Alcazar and cathedral in Seville, the Great Mosque of Cordoba and the Alhambra in Granada.

You will be given your room key and the rest of the day is free at leisure. Torremolinos is one of the most famous beach resorts in Spain and is just under 20km away from central Malaga. It is renowned for its long sandy beach and homely seafood restaurants. Overnight in Torremolinos hotel on a bed-and-breakfast basis. 2 DAY 2 | MALAGA – RONDA – JEREZ DE LA FRONTERA (220km – 3 hrs) Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before departing for Ronda, taking a scenic inland route, passing red earth hills dotted with olive plantations. On arrival, the well-preserved ruins of five defensive walls testify to Ronda’s turbulent past. Today, this history casts an enchanting spell over Ronda, which retains a beguiling timelessness in the maze of whitewashed cobbled alleys leading to the famous New Bridge over the 120-metre-deep El Tajo Gorge. Admire Mudejar towers, Renaissance palaces and baroque churches during the guided tour of the old town. Discover the imposing Gothic-Renaissance Church of Santa Maria la Mayor, which was built in the 1480s by the Castilian conquerors on the site of the Moorish great mosque, see what a traditional Andalusian house looks like inside with a visit to the eclectic-modernist Casa de Don Juan de Bosco and explore the bullring, the oldest in Spain, and its museum. After this fascinating stroll through Ronda, take to the road for a picturesque drive to Jerez de la Frontera, passing through some of the most beautiful countryside in Andalusia, which is dotted with rustic villages known as pueblos blancos. See Moorish citadels, romantic farmhouses nestling in verdant valleys, historic hilltop hamlets and towns perched precariously on precipitous ridges. Arrive in Jerez de la Frontera and check-in at the hotel with the rest of the day free at leisure. Overnight in Jerez de la Frontera hotel on a bed-and-breakfast basis. DAY 3 | JEREZ DE LA FRONTERA – CADIZ – SEVILLE (170km – 2.5 hrs) Breakfast at the hotel is followed by a visit to one of the sherry bodegas that have played an integral part in the history of Jerez de la Frontera. The ‘frontier’ in the city’s name harks back to when it was in the hotly contested borderland between the Moorish caliphates and Christian kingdoms. Nowadays, Jerez is a tranquil place famed for its fortified wines, equestrian expertise, flamenco music and tapas. Enjoy a panoramic tour of the old town, which is packed with shaded plazas, slightly crumbling baroque churches and palaces dating from the heyday of sherry exports. There are more than two dozen wineries still producing manzanilla, oloroso, amontillado, pale cream and brandy among others, and you will visit a bodega to learn all about the types of grapes used as well as the selection, fortification and ageing processes. Make the short trip to Cadiz for a panoramic tour of Europe’s longest continuously inhabited city before continuing to Seville, the capital of Andalusia, which is famed for its authentic Spanish atmosphere and impressive architecture. Explore the city with a panoramic bus tour, enjoying a photo stop at the magical Maria Luisa Park to discover its two impressive squares, Plaza de España, with its beautiful tiles, elaborate redbrick towers, bridges and canals, and Plaza de America, which is flanked by a number of magnificent neo-Gothic and neo-Mudejar palaces. Check-in at hotel with the rest of the day free at leisure. Overnight in Seville hotel on a bed-and-breakfast basis. DAY 4 | SEVILLE Discover Seville with a morning tour after breakfast at the hotel. The half-day guided tour includes visits to some of the capital’s top attractions such as the Royal Alcazar palace and the cathedral – both UNESCO World Heritage Sites – as well as Santa Cruz, its most picturesque inner city neighbourhood. The Royal Alcazar traces its origins to the 10th century, when it became the palace of a Moorish caliph. Over the centuries, it has been expanded with a series of stunning halls, pavilions, patios and gardens in a variety of styles from Moorish and Mudejar to Gothic, Renaissance and baroque. Admire the elaborate arabesque carvings, the ornate tilework and the fine tapestries and paintings decorating the walls. Behold the brilliance of the inner domes of the Hall of Ambassadors and the Patio of Dolls, and wander the tranquil landscaped gardens. Continue to the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, whose glorious Giralda belfry is Seville’s most iconic symbol. The cathedral began life as a mosque in the 12th century and has since grown to become the third-largest church in the world. Discover the 80 chapels and more than 700 works of religious art, see the amazing gilded altarpiece – which took 80 years to make – and stroll through the peaceful Patio of the Orange Trees. Next, explore secluded Santa Cruz, the former Jewish quarter and today the most traditional neighbourhood in the old town. It is a warren of whitewashed lanes, alleys, archways and patios, each with a historical tale to tell. Enjoy a tapas lunch in a typical restaurant with the afternoon free. In the evening, there is an optional visit to a pulsating flamenco show. Overnight in Seville hotel on a bed-and-breakfast basis. 3 DAY 5 | SEVILLE – CORDOBA – GRANADA (350km – 4 hrs) Bid farewell to Seville after breakfast at the hotel, departing for Cordoba to tour the historic centre before continuing to Granada, the last Moorish stronghold in Spain. Arrive in Cordoba and enjoy a guided tour of the old town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Cordoba was the capital of the Moorish caliphate of Al-Andalus during the height of its powers and glory, and nowhere is this wealth more evident than in the magnificent Great Mosque, which is now the Catholic cathedral. Wander through the colonnaded prayer halls, which are decorated with hundreds of marble columns joined by two-tone arches. Admire the mihrab and the side chapels, with their eclectic mix of arabesque and baroque styles. Stroll through the Patio of the Orange Trees, an oasis of peace cooled by the shade of 100 trees, and admire the arabesque decorations of exterior doorways. Continue the tour by walking to the former Jewish Quarter to visit the 14th century synagogue. Continue to Granada for check-in at the hotel with the rest of the day free at leisure. Overnight in Granada hotel on a bed-and-breakfast basis. DAY 6 | GRANADA – MALAGA (140km – 1.5 hrs) Enjoy breakfast at the hotel before exploring the historic city of Granada and its greatest treasure, the Alhambra palace. For more than a thousand years, this ‘pearl set in emeralds’ has stood atop Sabika hill overlooking the city, gaining in importance during the Moorish Nasrid dynasty, which turned the original castle into the palace of today. The royal complex and gardens were built to be 'heaven on earth', with cool patios, fountains and intricate carvings. Marvel at the rooms such as the Court of the Myrtles and the Hall of the Ambassadors, which are decorated in elaborate honeycomb arabesque plasterwork.

  • WINE TOUR: ANDALUCIA in a GLASS (Small Exclusive Group Tour 4-12 People)
    Escorted Tours in Andalusia WINE TOUR: ANDALUCIA IN A GLASS (Small exclusive group tour 4-12 people) Whether you are a seasoned fine wine aficionado or simply a lover of the grape looking to enjoy and better your knowledge of it, Andalusia is definitely the place for you! Wine in Andalusia has come a long way since 1100 BC when the Phoenicians first planted their vineyards in the fertile lands of Cadiz. By Roman times, wine was being produced in Andalusia in a big way and interestingly enough, this continued through Moorish times; despite the fact that the Koran frowns on the consumption of alcohol, some found creative ways to interpret the Koran’s words on wine, providing some justification such as medicinal purposes. From the 15th century onwards, Andalusian wines were shipped to appreciative drinkers elsewhere in Europe, particularly England, where there was a great fondness for Sack (as Sherry was called then) and sweet wines from Malaga. This happy situation prevailed until the 19th century when European vineyards were affected by the Oidium fungus (Powdery Mildew), followed by an even more devastating plague of Phylloxera (American vine root louse) which first appeared in Bordeaux in 1868 and spread to South Spain 20 years later. As a result, vineyards were replanted with plague-resistant American rootstock, while some, sadly, never fully recovered... From the historic sherries of Jerez, to the up-and-coming new vineyards in Ronda and Granada province, Andalusia boasts numerous top-quality wines. There are over 40.000 hectares of vineyards planted in 20 regions with over half of the wine production concentrated over 4 major ‘Denominación de Origen’ (D.O.
