HighlightNine days exploring Madrid, Toledo, Seville, Granada and Barcelona with expert guidance and included sightseeing
Alhambra's carved plaster, glazed tile and water courtyards in Granada. Gaudí's towers, façades and colour-scattered mosaics in Barcelona. Madrid's Gran Vía, Royal Palace and Cibeles Fountain with Local Specialist

In Madrid, you follow the buttery scent of warm pastries and dark coffee past market counters lined with jamón, fruit and wheels of cheese. Across Granada, you'll trace carved plaster and glazed tile beside water running through the Alhambra’s courtyards. As you explore Toledo’s narrow lanes, centuries-old stone rises beside you, while Andalusia stretches beyond the cities in olive groves and open plains. Barcelona awaits with Gaudí’s soaring towers, rippling façades and mosaics scattered with colour.

Day by day

Itinerary

  1. 1

    Arrive Madrid

    It won't take long for you to fall in love with Madrid. This beautiful capital was revived by King Charles III several centuries ago and the city is still as graceful as ever. Arriving today, check in to your hotel and get settled in before meeting up with your Travel Director and fellow travellers for a look at what’s to come on your Spain value tour. Venture out into the streets at sunset and watch this football-mad city really come to life. You might like to join us for an optional walking tour around the city sights with the opportunity to get your first taste of tapas at a local restaurant. You'll quickly find out why the city's lively nightlife keeps the locals up until all hours of the night.

  2. 2

    Madrid sightseeing and free time

    Gear up for a busy morning of sightseeing when you visit Madrid. Your Local Specialist will reveal all the secrets behind some of the city's most famous sights, kicking things off by heading up the Gran Vía through the heart of Madrid. See the Cibeles Fountain, the Royal Palace and the Paseo de la Castellana. This afternoon, you'll have some free time to spend as you like. History lovers will likely want to join an Optional Experience to the UNESCO-listed city of Segovia, with its Roman aqueduct and fairy-tale Alcázar, like something out of a storybook. Once you return to Madrid, you'll have another chance to discover the buzzing nightlife, which can be found spilling out into open-air cafes and pulsing plazas.

  3. 3

    Madrid – Toledo – Seville

    You'll watch history come to life when you visit the hilltop town of Toledo today, with its ancient city walls and long legacy of traditional sword-making. Take a sightseeing tour with your Local Specialist by your side, as every street reveals yet another stunning sight, including views of the cathedral and plazas. You'll also visit a steel workshop to discover the tradition of sword-making, which dates back to Roman times. Seville is your final destination today, where you'll stay for the next two nights.

  4. 4

    Seville sightseeing and free time

    The sizzling city of Seville is filled with the Spanish zest for life you'll come to know and love. It's a place of beautiful monuments, fine weather and it's also the home of the flamenco - no wonder it has been the royal family's (and thousands of travellers') favourite holiday retreat for centuries. Join your Local Specialist today to uncover some of the city's most famous sites, including Maria Luisa Park, built in 1929 for the Ibero-American exposition. Spend some time getting lost on purpose in the maze of lanes in Seville's Old Quarter or opt to join a tour to the grand 14th-century Moorish Alcázar. You'll have the whole evening free to explore your way, but you can't visit Seville and not witness a fiery flamenco show - join an Optional Experience to see the best flamenco in town.

  5. 5

    Seville – Granada

    We'll begin our journey from kings to emirs as we travel from Seville to Granada this morning. A visit to this city will take you back in time to when the Moors ruled the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, their last fortress before being exiled to North Africa. You can still see their Arab influences in the Moorish architecture and tetería tea houses and we'll show you where to look this afternoon before you head out into the cobbled streets to explore your way. Alternatively, consider joining an Optional Experience tour of the Albaicín Quarter, the city's oldest neighbourhood, known as the Arab Quarter. You'll discover its Moorish history and see the fortified citadel of the Alhambra on the hilltop overlooking Granada. If you're looking for the perfect way to end the day, why not head out to a lively gypsy performance?

  6. 6

    Granada – Guadix – Valencia

    Head into the hills of Guadix this morning, where white chimneys poking out of the earth hint at a whole other world below. These cave dwellings have been home to generations of locals, and you’ll have time to snap a few photos before continuing to Valencia, or ‘Bah-len-thee-a’ if you want to sound like you know what you’re doing. On your orientation tour, your Travel Director introduces the city’s greatest hits, from Estación del Norte and the Serrano and Quart Towers to Mercado de Colón and the striking City of Arts and Sciences. Later, make dinner count on an Optional Experience paella cooking class, then sit down to enjoy the results.

  7. 7

    Valencia – Peñíscola – Barcelona sightseeing

    Today, you head to the stunning seaside town of Peñíscola, nicknamed ‘The City in the Sea.’ See its towering Templar castle—once a Spanish Pope’s palace and a Hollywood feature in the movie El Cid. Then, cruise along the gorgeous Costa Dorada to Barcelona. This afternoon, join your Local Specialist to uncover the best of Barcelona. Snap a pic of La Sagrada Família's jaw-dropping exterior details and drive along the stylish Passeig de Gràcia. When night falls, the fun keeps going—you can choose to join an Optional Experience taking in the city lights on a drive to Montjuïc, with time for dinner at a seaside restaurant.

  8. 8

    Barcelona free day

    It’s your last full day in Spain — time to soak up all that Barcelona has to offer. You can opt to join a morning Optional Experience visit to Montserrat to see the famous Black Madonna. Tonight, share a final dinner and toast to the unforgettable moments of your Spanish adventure. ¡Salud!

  9. 9

    Depart Barcelona

    So long Spain! Your grand adventure through Spain's great cities and diverse landscapes may have come to an end, but you’ll keep its fiery passion burning long after your departure. It’s time to bid your compañeros a fond farewell.

Travel at 60 Social Getaways

Travel further when you're not travelling alone

Our Social Getaways are small-group holidays designed especially for over-60s Australians who want the freedom of a great trip without the work of planning every detail. A Travel at 60 host travels with the group, the operator handles the logistics, and you get to focus on the bit that matters — the people, the places, and the stories you'll bring home.

Open to solo travellers too. Many of our travellers book on their own and find their feet quickly in a friendly group of like-minded Australians. Reduced single-supplement options are available on most departures — ask one of our consultants and we'll talk you through what's offered on this trip.

  • A friendly Travel at 60 host — an Australian face on the ground, looking out for the group from day one.
  • Curated local guides & boutique suppliers — the same operators we'd book for our own families.
  • Real itineraries, not whirlwind tours — comfortable transfers, breathing room, and the “off the beaten track” stops the big bus tours skip.

Want to talk it through? Call 1300 414 198 7 days a week, Queensland time, and one of our consultants will walk you through it.
