Catch incredible clifftop views, discover beautiful island beaches and enjoy year-round sun on a tailor-made holiday to Spain.

Think of holidays to Spain, and the first thing that may come to mind is the country’s top range of beaches, where calm waters lap the soft sands of its sun-kissed Canary and Balearic Islands. But dig a little deeper into one of Europe’s most loved destinations, and you’ll find so much more. You could be browsing cobbled old-town streets, exploring UNESCO-listed nature reserves, or climbing a volcano, all on the same island and on the same day.

Whether you’re looking for relaxed pool vibes at a chic designer hotel, a family-friendly all-inclusive or a romantic boutique retreat away from it all, expect slick service, fantastic food, and an unforgettably warm welcome of smooth café con leche and call of Buen día from cheery locals.

Talk to us and we’ll help create your ideal Spain holiday.

With four World Heritage Sites to its name and a history that stretches back more than 2,000 years, Cordoba is an enchanting destination for a cultural break. Uncover the secrets of some of its most celebrated sights on a private two-hour walking tour with an official local guide. You’ll begin at the building that’s become a symbol of the city, the Mezquita or Mosque-Cathedral.

Historical Granada

Granada’s most iconic sight is the breathtaking Alhambra, which thoroughly deserves its status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At night, floodlit on its dark hill, it seems to float above the city like an enchanted citadel; in the cool light of day or the warm glow of sunset, it remains equally mesmerising. Inside, of course, is just as magical, especially in the company of an official guide with a love of art, history and stories of court life. As you explore every corner of this richly decorated Moorish palace, wandering through courtyards almost filled with pools that reflect the buildings around and marvelling at the elaborate wooden ceilings and intricately tiled façades, you’ll hear tales of intrigue, rivalry and passion concerning the Nasrid dynasty that ruled over Granada for 250 years.

Walk Through The History Of Seville

Seville’s magnificent royal palace complex, the Real Alcázar, is a microcosm of the city’s rich history. Beginning life as first a fort and then an Arab palace before becoming a residence for the Christian kings after the Reconquest, it’s a glorious melting pot of different architectural styles. On this private guided visit, you’ll explore inside and out, through lavishly decorated rooms such as the 16th-century Salón de Los Tapices – named after its massive tapestries – and ornate Mudéjar patios. More recently, the Real Alcázar and other spots in Seville became the kingdom of Dorne in Game of Thrones, and fans have the chance to visit the various locations in the palace and the cobbled streets beyond and hear anecdotes about the filming. If that’s not your thing, the guide will tailor your walk through the historic quarter to your particular interests, whether you’re fascinated by local crafts or have a taste for tapas.

After a 35-minute ferry trip, you’ll reach Corralejo, from where you’ll head inland, enjoying the different landscapes along the way. Your first destination is La Oliva, briefly the capital 200 years ago and now a charming village blessed with a typically Canarian church that’s well worth a visit. From here, you’ll continue through the heart of the island to Betancuria, another former capital, where you’ll have some free time to explore: the immaculately restored 17th-century Casa Santa Maria, for instance, has a shady garden, craft demonstrations and an inviting café. Next, you’ll drop in at a traditional farm where they make goats cheese – a local speciality – and tour an aloe vera plantation. Returning northwards, along the coast this time, you’ll make a final stop at Corralejo’s famous natural park and its towering Sahara-like dunes before the return boat journey to Playa Blanca.

The Dunes of Fuerteventura

Corralejo natural park, with its soaring dunes, is arguably Fuerteventura’s best-known attraction and the perfect side trip from Lanzarote. You’ll board the ferry at Playa Blanca for the 35-minute cruise to Corralejo, keeping an eye out for flying fish, dolphins or maybe even whales on the way. Once on Fuerteventura, you’ll head to El Cotillo, a picturesque fishing village where you can check out the beach, walk along the promenade or relax with a drink in one of its little cafés. From here you’ll make for Corralejo, another former fishing village that’s now a popular resort, where you can go shopping, stroll through its streets or eat the freshest of fish in one of its inviting restaurants. After that comes the natural park itself, where you can walk on the dunes and try to take the perfect photo of them. There’ll be time to swim and sunbathe on the kilometre-long beach adjoining the park, undoubtedly one of the best in the Canary Islands, before your return to Lanzarote.
