Itinerary 12 Days * (Day trips)

Beginning in Granada enjoy an unforgettable visit to the Alhambra Palaces and Generalife (gardens)  Discover the wonderful tea houses in the Albaycin and experience an authentic flamenco performance in the caves of Sacramonte. From Granada, we take you to the beautiful alpine villages of the Alpujarras with their wonderful crafts, where time literally stands still. Relax in Pampaneira and enjoy lunch at a fabulous cafe that serves local specialities that the family has carefully preserved.

The fascinating troglodyte town of Guadix, with its colourful houses and cute chimneys, is delightful.  Then step back into the Renaissance in Ubeda and enjoy a walk following the stream in the National park of Cazorla. Most of Spain’s olive oil comes from the region of Jaen. Ubeda and Baeza have many artisan producers where you can enjoy a tasting of some premium olive oils.

Then on to the intriguing Mesquita in Cordoba. The passion and colour of equestrian art accompanied by flamenco is the epitome of Cordobesque culture. From Cordoba we travel to Ronda.

Ronda’s magnificent Puente Nuevo bridge is a sight to behold. At sunset enjoy dining at one of the many tapas bars with incredible views. Ronda is a town famously loved by Ernest Hemmingway and Orson Welles. There is so much to see and explore in Ronda on foot so we spend a few days here and take a day excursion to the pristine town of Grazalema.
