  • Almería

    Sunny Almería is overlooked by a Moorish Alcazaba and it’s full of elegant squares and boulevards lined with neoclassical mansions. It’s undergoing a renaissance with the pedestrianisation of the Paseo de Almería and port redevelopment.

  • Marbella

    Marbella makes a great day trip from Málaga or any of the resorts on the Costa del Sol. It has a charming old town with flower-filled white-washed streets and a seaside promenade that goes on for miles.

  • Seville

    This itinerary takes in the key sights while also stepping away from the tourist magnets into Seville’s most colourful and bustling neighbourhoods.

  • Málaga

    Málaga has become popular for city breaks since its city centre blossomed with the addition of a new cruise port terminal and several art museums, capitalising on its status as the birthplace of Pablo Picasso. It can get pretty busy at times, but you don’t need to go far to get away from the hordes.

  • Córdoba

    Capital of both the Roman province of Baetica and Al-Andalus, Córdoba’s rich cultural heritage is preserved in its architecture, customs and cuisine. It’s worth lingering for a few nights to do the city justice and to experience its more tranquil side once the day-trippers have left.

  • Seville and Córdoba

    Seville and Córdoba have a wealth of historic monuments, including must-see sights like the Mosque-Cathedral of Córdoba, Seville Cathedral and the royal palaces (Alcázares) in both cities. As well as them, this itinerary gives you time to explore traditional Andalucian neighbourhoods, experience the passion of a flamenco performance and sample the local cuisine.

  • Antequera

    Antequera, with its ancient dolmens and charming old town, sits right in the heart of Andalucía, strategically placed on Spain’s high-speed rail network, which makes it an excellent day trip from Málaga, Córdoba, Granada or Seville.
