Highlights of Andalucia Escorted Tour Itinerary

Day 1 – Travel to Spain

On arrival in Malaga, your guide will meet you and accompany you to the coach, for transfer to your hotel in the lovely town of Loja. During the journey, there will be tips and information to help get your holiday off to a great start!

Day 2 – Seville

Today, you’ll visit Andalucía’s most lively and colourful city, located on the banks of the River Guadalquivir. Seville is famous for flamenco, tapas and a rich cultural and architectural heritage. On your panoramic city tour by coach, you will view highlights such as the San Telmo Palace and Golden Tower. There will also be a visit to the beautiful Plaza Espana, and free time to explore the city’s Jewish quarter.

Day 3 – Cordoba

This full-day excursion will introduce you to the UNESCO World Heritage City of Córdoba, one of the great cities of the medieval world. You will have a guided walking tour of the historic centre, where among many treasures is the wonderful Mezquita, formerly the Great Mosque, and now a Christian cathedral.

Day 4 – Antequera

Get to know Antequera on an enjoyable half-day guided walking tour of the Old Town, starting with the impressive ‘Dolmen de Menga’, one of the oldest monuments in Spain, dating back to the Megalithic period. You will then have some time at leisure to stroll around and take in the atmosphere of the charming streets and squares of this typically Andalucian town.

Day 5 – Transfer to Granada

Say ‘goodbye’ to Loja as we depart to the medieval city of Granada, where we will spend the last 3 nights of our holiday. Once you have settled into your hotel, the rest of the day will be free to explore the city at your own pace and settle into your surroundings.

Day 6 – Granada

Let’s depart for a guided city tour of Granada. Visit the Generalife Gardens and the UNESCO-listed Alhambra complex, one of Spain’s most iconic and visited historic sites. While we aim to include access to the full Alhambra complex—including the Nasrid Palaces, Alcazaba, and other key areas—due to limited ticket availability and high demand, entry to these palaces cannot be guaranteed. If full access is not possible, your visit will still include the beautiful Generalife Gardens and surrounding areas.

Day 7 – At Leisure in Granada

Spend some time at leisure today to explore at your own pace. Perhaps enjoy a few traditional Andalucian tapas in a local restaurant and watch the world go by.
