We’ll roll out of Valencia and aim our wheels toward the beautiful Andalusia region. Our first city will be Granada, “tierra soñada por mí!”.

We’ll arrive around midday, drop our bags, and grab lunch. Welcome to one of Spain’s most magical cities.

Afternoon is all about the Alhambra, the legendary palace and fortress complex, and a masterpiece of Islamic architecture. The Alhambra is the crown jewel of Moorish Spain.

After the Alhambra, we’ll wander the Albaicín’s whitewashed lanes and pretty plazas. If you’re up for it, we can pop into Palacio de los Olvidados for a fascinating window into Granada’s Sephardic past. Then we’ll glide up to the Mirador de San Nicolás for that famous sunset view of the Alhambra glowing gold with the Sierra Nevada behind it.

Evening is ours: tapas and a late dinner (Granada knows how to do both), and if you want to turn the relaxation up to eleven, an optional Arab Baths session is the perfect nightcap.

OVERNIGHT: Sercotel Palacio De Los Gamboa or similar

MEALS: Breakfast
