The pleasure of a road trip is always the promise of discovery, and your 12-day itinerary through Spain and Morocco with your private driver will offer indelible majesty and ineffable adventure embodied through the culture, artistry, and history. Your road adventure will begin in Barcelona with your arrival at Barcelona-El Prat Airport. Your private transfer will greet you upon arrival and escort you to your hotel that is located in the heart of the enchanting city. The remainder of the day will be at your leisure to relish the seaside ambiance and the distinctive culture of the city along the avenue of Las Ramblas. The next day, your guide will lead you on a private, in-depth tour of Barcelona to follow the architectural splendor of Antonin Gaudi and the treasured revolutionary works of Pablo Picasso.

Wake the next morning to board your first-class car of a high-speed train to reach Madrid, the capital of Spain.  If you’d prefer, you could also continue with your own private driver and car. After checking into your hotel, you will have a half-day tour of the beautiful monuments of the city, including the Plaza del Sol and the Basilica de San Francisco. Visit the Royal Palace the next day to experience the opulence of Spanish kings, and then continue to Toledo for a half-day tour spent strolling along the medieval lanes as shaped by Moorish, Jewish, and Christian culture. The next day, you will take a scenic drive into Andalusia, stopping in the gorgeous city of Cordoba en route to Seville. Visit the famous Mezquita and explore the enchanting lanes that are lined with whitewashed walls before settling into Seville for the evening.

The following day, your guide will lead you on a fabulous tour of the city that will encompass the Cathedral and the beautiful Alcazar. In the evening, look forward to a fabulous flamenco show for a captivating introduction to the historical dance. Fly from Seville to Marrakech, Morocco the next day, and your private transfer will greet you at Marrakech Menara Airport to escort you to your luxurious riad hotel inside the Medina. Relish a half-day tour of the fabled city to experience the bustling, maze-like streets and the fascinating Musee Tiskiwin.
