As evening approaches, experience one of the most beloved food tours in Spain: our Tapas & Markets Tour in Madrid, consistently ranked as a top experience on TripAdvisor. Led by a culinary expert, this 4.5-hour adventure takes you through historic districts like La Latina, Los Austrias, and Barrio de las Letras.

After the tour, the night is yours. Walk the buzzing streets, enjoy a drink in Plaza Santa Ana, or simply soak in the energy of Madrid after dark. You’ll stay in a centrally located boutique hotel, carefully selected for its style, comfort, and proximity to the city’s vibrant life.

Day 2: MADRID – SEVILLE

Madrid

Begin your morning with a peaceful stroll or a cultural deep dive: visit the Royal Palace, explore the Thyssen or Reina Sofía museums, or wander the gardens of El Retiro Park. Sports lovers can tour the legendary Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, while those craving local flavor can start the day with churros and chocolate at San Ginés, the city’s most famous churrería—an institution since 1894.
Seville
5h

At midday, board another high-speed AVE train that takes you south to Seville, a city full of life, music, and fresh scent of orange trees. After check-in at your charming boutique hotel in the Old Town, enjoy a relaxed afternoon discovering the city’s captivating streets, from the historic Barrio de Santa Cruz to the banks of the Guadalquivir.
Seville
10h

As the sun sets, Seville reveals its most magical side. Locals gather on terraces, flamenco music echoes in hidden plazas, and the city’s golden glow makes every street corner feel cinematic. Enjoy your evening your way—whether with a riverside dinner or tapas in one of Seville’s storied bars.

Day 3: SEVILLE – BARCELONA (or Stay in Seville)

Seville

After breakfast, dive into our curated cultural experience of Seville: a premium small-group walking tour through the historic Old Town. Visit hidden corners and landmarks with deep Moorish and Roman roots. Explore the Flamenco Dance Museum, a vibrant celebration of Andalusia’s most passionate art form, and cap the experience with a scenic cruise along the Guadalquivir River, passing the Torre del Oro, Triana, and other postcard-worthy sights.
Seville
Pass by

In the afternoon, you’ll have more time to enjoy Seville at your leisure. Visit the Seville Cathedral, climb the Giralda tower, or walk the tiled halls of the Alcázar. Grab a seat at a traditional bar for a final round of tapas—Seville is the birthplace of this culinary art, after all. Whether you're sipping a vermut in Plaza del Salvador or discovering a hidden flamenco tavern, your last hours in the city are sure to stay with you.
Barcelona
6h

You’ll return to Barcelona in the afternoon by high-speed train—or choose to extend your stay in Seville, continuing the adventure on your own.
