Travel across Spain on a city-to-city journey that links the Mediterranean coast with Andalusia and finishes in the capital. Begin in Barcelona, where modernist landmarks and the historic Gothic Quarter set the tone for a stylish first stop, then continue to Valencia for a look at its old city squares, silk heritage and the futuristic City of Arts & Sciences.
The route then carries you south to Málaga, a coastal city with a strong historic character and an easygoing seaside feel, before moving on to Sevilla, where the old quarter, grand plazas and shaded parkland bring together the best-known Andalusian scenes. Each stage is planned with hotel stays, breakfast and private station transfers, so the journey between cities stays smooth while leaving time to enjoy each destination properly.
Finish in Madrid with a relaxed afternoon in the city and a guided half-day sightseeing tour that covers the avenues, squares and landmarks most travellers want to see first. This Spain holiday suits travellers who want a broad introduction to the country without rushing, combining rail travel, private transfers and city breaks into one route that feels varied from start to finish.
The pace allows for both sightseeing and downtime, with leisure time built in at key points for shopping, a café stop or an evening out.
