Three Cities of Andalucia
Base yourself in three great cities — Málaga, Granada and Seville — and let intercity trains do the travelling on this eight-day, low-hassle culture trip. Optional add-ons such as the Nerja Caves or a Jerez day let you tailor the pace.
About this tour
Rather than a coach circuit, this eight-day trip is built around train travel between Andalucía's cultural capitals, with private airport transfers to bookend it. You'll spend time in Málaga's historic centre, take a guided tour of the Alhambra and Granada's Albaicín, and enjoy a flamenco show in Seville, with optional extras such as the Nerja Caves, Frigiliana or a day in Jerez to fill free time as you wish. The trip runs one-way from Málaga to Seville and is guided, with support in Spanish, English and French. It's designed for independent-minded travellers who like culture without long drives, welcomes children from age 8 (no infants), and starts at €1,800. The tour page lists what's guided, what's optional and how the trains are booked.
