    Your Guided Group Holiday To Andalucia 

    Travel with us to fall in love with Andalucía, its people, history and traditions. Successive invasions and influences from the Romans to the Moors have left their imprint on the landscape and culture of Andalucía, making for a fascinating journey through time. On this unforgettable holiday to Spain, we’ll discover this sunny, vibrant region, while staying in the authentically Andalucían towns of Loja. Surrounded by dramatic mountains and green valleys, this area is known as Andalucía's heart and is the perfect base from which we’ll take day trips to explore Seville, Córdoba and Granada, three of southern Spain's most remarkable cities. On this trip, you’ll also enjoy plenty of leisure time. Enjoy the whitewashed plazas and narrow streets of Loja, and explore the medieval architecture of Granada, all while soaking up the atmosphere of the real Spain. 

    Please note: Mirador hotel in Loja is on half board basis and Catalonia hotel in Granada is on Bed & breakfast basis.
