About this trip
Andalucia in eight days, moving through Granada, Cordoba and Seville with a proper mix of big-name sights and slower village life in between.
This is a guided trip built around the region's Moorish past — the Alhambra, the Mezquita, the Alcazar — alongside flamenco, tapas and a walk through the white villages of the Sierra de Arcena.
Good for anyone who wants the greatest hits of southern Spain covered properly, with a day or two of genuine countryside to break up the city time.
What you'll do
- Tour the Alhambra Palace in Granada
- See the Mezquita's Moorish architecture in Cordoba
- Walk through the white villages of the Sierra de Arcena
- Visit Seville's UNESCO-listed Alcazar Palace
- Take in a flamenco performance and tapas along the way
- Moderate pace — a mix of city touring and countryside walking
- Fully guided throughout, so you're not organising logistics yourself
- Suits travellers who want history and culture with some time outdoors
Worth it if you want expert-led city culture with genuine downtime in a guide's home. Think twice if you prefer slower pace or need reliably high-end accommodation.
- Guide Craig's deep Spanish history knowledge and optional evening activities like flamenco and local restaurants genuinely set this apart.
- Two days staying at your guide's home in Sierra de Aracena provides rare authentic balance against relentless city touring.
- Accommodation quality varies wildly: some rooms had mould, ants, or only handheld showers; breakfasts often just bread and jam.
- Eight days packs Granada, Cordoba, Seville, hikes and mountain time tightly; expect early starts and information overload some days.
