Madrid

Spain’s capital: the bear and the strawberry tree, Habsburg plazas, the Prado, and neighborhood tapas.

Seville

Andalusia’s capital of courtyards, flamenco, and orange trees: cathedral, Alcázar, Santa Cruz, and Triana nights.

Córdoba

The Mezquita-Catedral and the Judería—one of Spain’s essential days.

Granada

The Alhambra, the Albaicín, and late light on the Sierra Nevada.

Barcelona

Gaudí, the Gothic Quarter, and a Mediterranean finish.

Activities

  • Capital & Prado

    Habsburg Madrid on foot and a major museum afternoon.

  • Andalusian trio

    Seville, Córdoba, and Granada with timed palace tickets.

  • Barcelona finish

    Gothic Quarter and Sagrada Família, not a cruise-port sprint.

  • Private transfers

    Comfortable private vehicles and high-speed trains where they save a day.

Included Services

Entry & paperwork

For most US travelers, Spain is visa-free for a short stay (up to 90 days in any 180-day Schengen period). We brief you on passport validity, what to expect at passport control, and ETIAS only if the EU has opened it before you fly.

Airport transfers

Door-to-door arrivals and departures when included on your quote.

Private ground transport

Ground transport is private to your party. On small-group departures, vehicles carry only travelers booked on that same tour—we never mix unrelated guests into your route transfers.

Expert local guiding

Bilingual storytellers and specialists aligned with responsible local travel in Spain.

3–5 star hotels

Hand-picked 3- and 4-star hotels as the published baseline, with 4- and 5-star upgrades quoted on request. Rooming is on your confirmation. Every room has a private en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, and hot water.

Scheduled entries & cadence

Museums, parks, and timed visits as listed for your tour style.

Meals

Daily breakfast at the hotel and one lunch included in Andalusia. Dinners are not included.

Not included

International flights

Travelers join us from across the United States and from other countries, so we leave flights to Spain to you—you choose the routing that works from home.

Most lunches & dinners

We leave these meals off the package so you have more flexibility to choose where to eat each day. We're more than happy to recommend places and make reservations whenever you need.

Tips & gratuities

Tipping is customary in Spain, but it isn't compulsory. In other words, it's optional.

Welcome to Spain. A member of Spain 360 will pick you up at the airport. Look for our logo with your name on it (or the name of the person in your party who booked the holiday). Next, you will be transferred to your accommodation. We keep the first evening light after a long flight: a short walk if you have the legs, a table nearby if you want dinner, or an early night. Extra tickets, cover charges, and drinks are not in the package unless your quote says otherwise. Madrid’s evenings are easy after an Atlantic crossing: a first walk in the Austrias, a vermouth, or an early night. • A short walk through Plaza Mayor and the Austrias quarter. • Tapas in La Latina—places we eat, not a tourist strip. • An early night after the Atlantic crossing. That is a legitimate Day 1. These evening outings are optional extras. We’ll happily arrange them if you’d like, but any costs that follow—tickets, cover charges, drinks, or extra transport—are not included in the tour package.
