Departing from Newcastle - 8 days from £1,420pp
Explore Andalucia by Little Boats
Embrace a slower pace as you travel by water and land across southern Spain, pausing to sip sherry on piazzas while taking in the ancient sites.
From your base, Jerez de la Frontera, the city of flamenco dancing, fine sherry, and horses, you’ll embark on experiences to engage in local life. Gaze in awe as the famous ‘dancing stallions’ perform at the Royal Andalusian Equestrian School, wine taste in a bodega and tuck into tapas at shaded, open-air eateries.
Seville with its collection of UNESCO World Heritage Sites and orange tree-ringed piazzas is next on the itinerary, and a cruise across the Guadalquivir River allows you to take in the sights from a different angle. A boat trip in a traditional barge to Doñana National Park, a birdwatchers’ paradise, is followed by a visit to ancient Cádiz, sailing in a catamaran to medieval Rota, and an optional excursion to Marbella’s world-famous marina, Puerto Banus, by water.
