This private tour of Spain has been designed by our family travel experts to provide the best of this exciting, colorful country, filled with distinctive culture, food, people and scenery. Experience the vitality of Spain on a tour specially designed to delight all members of the family.

Begin in Madrid, the capital of Spain, with three nights at the legendary Hotel Ritz. With your expert private guide, explore the highlights of the city. Explore historic squares and lively markets. See world-renowned paintings in museums such as the Prado Museum and Reina Sofia. Tour the majestic Royal Palace. One evening, enjoy a private “tapas tasting” tour of some of some of Madrid’s most beloved tapas bars. Also enjoy activities according to your family’s interests, such as attending a Real Madrid soccer game or touring the stadium. One day, take a private excursion to Segovia and see the ancient Roman aqueduct, atmospheric backstreets, and the fairy-tale Alcazar castle, which perches on a rocky outcrop. Alternatively, visit Toledo for a guided tour of the city’s splendid medieval center.

Next, board the high speed train to the Andalusia region. Stop in Cordoba, a capital under the Romans and the Moors, and enjoy a private tour of the UNESCO-listed city center. Continue by private driver to a luxury country estate near Granada. With your expert private guide, tour the extraordinary Alhambra—one of the highlights of Spain—a stunning Moorish castle, palace and garden complex on a hillside overlooking the town. Visit the Generalife, the summer palace and gardens of Moorish royalty. Also tour the labyrinthine streets of the Albaicin—the old Arab Quarter—and discover a world full of winding, hilly streets, Moorish fountains, and teterías (Arabic tearooms). During free time, optional activities can be arranged, such as ATV rides, biking excursions, and private Spanish guitar lessons.

Continue to Barcelona and enjoy personalized private touring in the city. Tour Gaudi’s fantastical structures such as Sagrada Familia and the hillside Parc Guell. Take a guided tour through the Gothic Quarter’s narrow streets. Stroll along Las Ramblas—Barcelona’s most famous boulevard—and stop for local snacks at La Boqueria Market. Other family-friendly options include the Tibidabo Amusement Park, the aquarium, hiking in Montserrat or biking excursions in the nearby countryside. During free time, enjoy your luxury hotel overlooking the sea.
