The Journey

An intimate journey through Spain’s most fascinating cities and landscapes. From the Prado Museum in Madrid to the Alhambra of Granada, discover history, art, gastronomy and hidden gems — curated for those who value authenticity over mass tourism.

Day 1 – Madrid

Arrive in Spain’s capital and settle into your boutique hotel in the heart of the city. In the evening, join the group for a welcome dinner in the historic Literary Quarter, where centuries of writers and thinkers once gathered. This first evening sets the tone: intimate, cultural, and authentic.

Day 2 – Madrid → Córdoba

Board the high-speed AVE train to Córdoba, once the dazzling capital of Al-Andalus. Walk through the Mezquita, where Islamic and Christian histories meet under the same arches. Stroll among Córdoba’s whitewashed patios before heading to the Montilla-Moriles region for a private tasting of its unique wines. Evening at leisure in your boutique hotel.

Day 3 – Córdoba → Seville

Travel to Seville, a city of light, gardens, and Moorish palaces. Explore the Alcázar, a masterpiece of Mudéjar art, and Seville’s immense Gothic Cathedral. Wander through the Barrio de Santa Cruz with its narrow alleys and courtyards. Tonight, feel the rhythm of Andalusia with an intimate flamenco performance.

Day 4 – Seville → Málaga

Enjoy a relaxed morning in Seville before transferring east to Málaga. Once a Roman port and later the birthplace of Picasso, Málaga today blends history with a vibrant cultural scene. Visit the Alcazaba fortress and enjoy dinner on the beach, where sardines are grilled on open fires — a centuries-old tradition by the Mediterranean.

Day 5 – Málaga

Discover Málaga’s cultural side: the Picasso Museum, housed in a 16th-century palace, and the city’s Renaissance Cathedral. The afternoon is free for personal exploration or rest at your boutique hotel. In the evening, gather for dinner in a refined local restaurant, where Andalusian flavors are presented with elegance.

Day 6 – The Axarquía (Frigiliana – Nerja – Maro)

A day among the whitewashed villages of the Axarquía, each with its Moorish heritage intact. Wander Frigiliana’s cobbled streets, enjoy sea views from Nerja’s Balcón de Europa, and explore the quiet charm of Maro. Taste the region’s famous sweet Moscatel wines in a family-run bodega, followed by dinner in a rural restaurant that reflects the area’s deep culinary roots. Overnight in the region.

Day 7 – Granada

The journey culminates in Granada. Morning visit to the Alhambra, the legendary palace of the Nasrid dynasty, followed by a stroll through the Albaicín, a labyrinth of narrow streets with views of the Sierra Nevada. Afternoon at leisure before our farewell dinner overlooking the illuminated Alhambra — a final toast to art, history, and shared moments.

Day 8 – Departure

Private transfers to the airport or AVE station.
