Luxury Tour of Andalusia
The scent of orange blossoms hangs in the evening air, guitars play behind a facade, and the first glass of manzanilla is poured on a terrace. Andalusia gets off to a strong start right away. In Seville, you’ll go from royal patios to an intimate tablao, while the Giralda watches over the rooftops. Córdoba surprises with the endless rhythm of the Mezquita and a dinner in a patio, accompanied by Spanish guitar. Private guides bring the stories behind these monuments to life and point out details you’d otherwise walk right past.
Then you’ll take the wheel yourself. The road winds through the Sierra de Grazalema, past white villages that stand out sharply against olive groves and mountain slopes. In Ronda, you’ll look out over the deep El Tajo Gorge and sample organic wines among the vineyards. The local Payoyo cheese deserves at least as much attention as what’s in your glass.
Granada surprises with its Moorish alleyways and a dinner across from the illuminated Alhambra. Málaga provides a sunny finale with art, urban energy, and Mediterranean flavors. Nine days, five destinations, and plenty of reasons to return.
