Tour Description

A budget friendly tour of two culturally rich countries ticks all the boxes of how to best spend 12 nights away in Southern Europe.

From Madrid, you’ll head to Toledo, a treasure chest of art and historical architecture, which normally would keep you talking about it for days – if it wasn’t so soon followed up in Granada, with an included visit to the incredible Alhambra. You’ll soon learn that the Moors and their kings had a massive impact and influence, not only on Granada and the Alhambra. As you explore further Moorish architecture, you’ll find yourself hard pressed to choose your favourite destination in Andalucia, which also boasts the likes of historic Cordoba and stunning Seville too, as you work your way towards Portugal.

Once you’ve crossed the border, a local guide will show you the best of Lisbon, including the Belem Tower, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built to commemorate the expedition of Vasco de Gama; as well as Porto’s cathedral, which has a panoramic view over the port wine cellars on the banks of the Douro River. In addition to the tours in Lisbon and Porto, you’ll be able to enjoy guided sightseeing tours in Toledo, Granada, Seville, Madrid and Cordoba too – as well as loads of optional extra activities!

Your group will have it’s very own private, air-conditioned, luxury coach – fitted with Wi-Fi – to take you to each destination in style.
