Spain

Art, Culture, and Flamenco

Enjoy Spain's two largest cities, Barcelona and Madrid, by embracing their rich histories, countless traditions, and timeless architecture. Starting in Barcelona, we'll visit the Picasso Museum, La Sagrada Familia, Park Güell, and take strolls down the Barceloneta Beach and the Gothic Quarter. We'll then travel to Madrid via high-speed train before visiting the inimitable Prado and Reina Sofía Museums, stroll through the stunning Parque Retiro and iconic neighborhoods Sol, Opera, Malasaña and Chueca, visit the Templo Debod and Plaza Mayor, enjoy culinary highlights such as tapas and churros, and experience a flamenco show. We will also take a day trip to Toledo – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – from Madrid.
