In Andalusia you can find everything that is associated with Spain: flamenco, castanets, bullfight, white villages, sandy beaches and of course the Spanish sun. Every corner of the region remembers the times of the Great Western Caliphate, which is why there are many monuments of Arab character, but also those belonging to the classical culture of Spain. We propose a trip to the most interesting places in the region: on the route the famous monuments of the Moors in Cordoba, Seville and Granada, the beautifully situated Ronda, monuments from the UNESCO list and small charming towns. The optional program includes a flamenco show and a tour of Gibraltar. After intensive sightseeing, we suggest you relax in a hotel selected from the extensive ITAKA offer. Route in Spain: approx. 1,200 km. In 2022, the tour received ITAKA's SAIL for an attractive program.
