Your private tour of Andalucía continues in Cordoba where your expert guide will accompany you to highlights such as the Casa de Sefarad and the city’s iconic Mezquita, with private access available to enjoy this UNESCO World Heritage site without the crowds. Next, explore Seville’s highlights including the magnificent Plaza de España, Seville Cathedral, the Giralda Minaret, and the Alcazar, originally built as a Moorish fort. Visit one of the city’s unique historic palaces to discover its Christian and Moorish influences, followed by an evening flamenco show at the Flamenco History Museum. During your stay in Seville, choose from unique day excursions, including a private tour and tasting at a top jamón ibérico producer in Jabugo, a 4×4 tour of a traditional bull farm with the option for a private Capea, or a day in Jerez with VIP seats at its celebrated horse show and a private sherry tasting at Bodegas Osborne.

Upon arrival to Granada, your personal host will take you to Palacio de los Patos, a refurbished 19th century palace. Enjoy a guided walk through the Arab quarter (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and other significant neighborhoods. In the evening, enjoy a tapas tour with your personal guide, tasting the authentic dishes of the region.

On the second day of your private Andalucía tour, see some of Granada’s main highlights such as the Cathedral and the Royal Chapel. No luxury Andalucía trip is complete without visiting one of its most famous historical landmarks: the Alhambra. You will have the option of exclusive access to this fascinating 10th century structure, as it will open its doors just for your party. In the evening, dinner will be served at a restaurant with views of the Alhambra lit up at night.

Córdoba (1 night)

Your luxury Andalucía tour continues with a private transfer to Córdoba where you can see the city’s highlights, including a stroll through the famed Jewish quarter of the city. You can also visit an old synagogue with your private guide. Later, learn about the famous Jewish philosopher of the region, Maimonides, as you visit Casa de Sefarad. Following this, enjoy a private guided tour of the famed Mezquita. Both of these visits can be arranged exclusively for your party with Blue Parallel’s insider access.

Seville (3 nights)

Enjoy a private transfer to Seville to spend three remarkable days discovering the city’s rich history and culture. Set out to discover Seville’s surroundings with your expert guide, beginning with a visit to the magnificent Plaza de España, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. Afterwards, choose between a private boating experience along the beautiful Guadalquivir River or a guided biking tour through Seville’s picturesque parks, historic neighborhoods, and riverfront promenades. In the evening, enjoy a recommended dinner at a local restaurant.

The following morning, enjoy a private guided tour of Seville’s highlights, starting with the Seville Cathedral, one of the three largest cathedrals in the world, and the Giralda Minaret, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Continue to the Alcazar, the royal palace originally built as a Moorish fort, before enjoying lunch. In the afternoon, visit one of Seville’s unique historic palaces to learn more about the city’s fascinating history and discover its distinctive blend of Christian and Moorish architectural influences. In the evening, head to the Flamenco History Museum to experience one of Andalucía’s best flamenco shows.

On your final day, choose from a variety of day excursions based on your interests. Visit C5J in Jabugo for a private tour of the grazing fields and factory, learning about the production of Jamón ibérico before an exclusive tasting. Alternatively, explore the 1,800-hectare Cortijo estate by 4×4 to learn about bullfighting traditions and see the bulls grazing, with the option to enjoy a private, harmless Capea after lunch. Another option is a day in Jerez, where you will enjoy the celebrated horse show from VIP seats, followed by a private tour and tasting at Bodegas Osborne to discover Andalucía’s iconic sherry.

Ronda (2 nights)

Your journey through Spain ends in Ronda. Reach Ronda by private transfer as you drive through a series of towns and large villages known as the Pueblos Blancos or ‘White Villages’. Ernest Hemingway spent many summers in his house in Ronda’s old town quarter called La Ciudad. He wrote about Ronda’s beauty and famous bullfighting traditions, and was inspired by Andalucian history and culture. Stay at Ronda Parador where you will enjoy spectacular views from your suite. After lunch at a restaurant overlooking the city, begin your guided sightseeing tour of Ronda. You will go on a gentle hike through the outskirts of Ronda.

The next day, begin your private biking excursion with your expert guide from Ronda towards Setenil, a charming white village. Along the way, take in great views of the mountain range and countryside that surround the city. Enjoy lunch at Setenil followed by a private transfer back to Ronda to relax for the afternoon. On the last day of your luxury Andalucía tour, you will be privately transferred to Málaga for your international flight departure.

WHAT OUR TRAVELERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT OUR Andalucia Luxury Tours

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Starting and ending our trip to Spain with VIP assistance at Barcelona airport was exceptional. We loved being guided past long lines, having access to a private lounge, and the limousine transfer to and from our hotel. We upgraded to the top suite in the Palacio de los Patos in Granada, which was magnificent, and our suite at the Ronda Parador had spectacular views. Highlights of our Spain tour included exclusive private access to incredible sites, including the Mezquita in Cordoba after it closed to the public, the Picasso Museum in Barcelona before it opened to the public, and both the Alhambra and Generalife in Granada after they closed to the public.

The trip to Spain exceeded every wish I ever had. My family are blown away, as am I. There is no way I can ever say how grateful I am for getting all of us together for a vacation of a lifetime and no adequate words to express my gratitude for all of the special touches you added to the vacation. The musicians on the private boat ride along the River Guadalquivir in Seville, and the musicians at our vow renewal at the stunning Iglesia del Senor San Jose were so special! My family did not have enough compliments to share at your attention to detail; both the Correl Del Ray and Hotel Fuente de la Higuera were outstanding! The restaurants were exceptional; first class all the way. All the guides were wonderful!

We couldn't wait to congratulate you for the quality of our special journey in Andalucia. This trip allowed us to discover many aspects of this area that is so rich in culture and tradition. The coordination was perfect as well as the hotels, the transportation, the local guides — everyone was just perfect. The private evening tour of the Alhambra in Granada and the Mezquita in Cordoba are unforgettable memories. And above all, we want to especially congratulate you for your local representative, Fabricio, who accompanied us throughout our journey. He was a wonderful companion, he knows everything and everyone there is to know in Andalucia. He continuously did everything he could do to make our trip perfect. You cannot have someone on site who represents you better and more efficiently. Once again, you have exceeded our expectations!

Blue Parallel creates amazing experiences, and their guides and team are absolutely wonderful. This trip to Spain was our second journey with Blue Parallel and we can’t wait for the next one. The experiences, hotels, restaurants, and private experiences were exceptional, and we will remember this trip for the rest of our lives. The private tour of the Alhambra, where we had exclusive access without the general public, was the highlight of our Spain tour. The food was also perfect, from the tapas tour to the Michelin star restaurants.
