Spain’s magnificent heritage is surveyed on Academy Travel’s 18-day tour of Spain from south to north, through the regions of Andalusia, Castille-Leόn and Catalonia. The itinerary commences with three nights each in the southern cities of Granada, Córdoba and Seville, home to Roman and Moorish treasures. Our four days in Madrid are an art-lover’s dream, with visits to outstanding galleries and royal palaces of the imperial period. The tour ends in Barcelona, a thoroughly modern city, but one with ancient roots.
Many of Spain’s historical cities can be explored on foot, and we have selected centrally-located hotels throughout to allow for individual exploration.
Listed below are some of Academy Travel’s carefully selected four-star hotels for the popular Grand Tour of Spain. Each of the hotels in our itinerary have been selected principally for their character and central location and are 4-star in standard.
