Andalusia in Bloom

Palaces, Tapas & Flamenco

12 February - 21 February 2027

Andalusia for all the senses! When the almond trees are in full bloom in spring, southern Spain reveals its very special charm. Ideally located accommodation and the expert guidance of a tour guide who has been sharing his knowledge and passion for Andalusia for many years make this journey a truly immersive experience. Look forward to the magnificent Moorish palaces of the Alhambra, the impressive Mezquita of Córdoba and the vibrant atmosphere of Seville. Wander through flower-filled streets, enjoy the fiery rhythms of flamenco and immerse yourself in the history of a region that has shaped Europe for centuries. In Málaga, discover the works of Picasso; in Granada and Córdoba, admire the masterpieces of the Abbasid and Nasrid dynasties. In Seville, visit the tomb of Christopher Columbus and discover modern architecture, while in Ronda you will learn about the traditions and stories surrounding bullfighting.

But Andalusia does not only speak to the soul — it also delights the senses. Taste sweet Málaga wine, high-quality olive oil, artisan cheeses and sun-ripened citrus fruits. Discover traditional bodegas, authentic taverns and the warm hospitality of the local people.
