History, Culture & Sunshine Await in Spain

From pristine coastlines to vibrant cities, Spain is rich in culture and brimming with wonder. When curating our collection of escorted and independent tours, this Iberian hotspot stood apart, which is why we have nearly 20 tours exploring Spain.

Come along for inspired adventures in the bustling city of Barcelona, where centuries-old architecture punctuates the city and sites date to the Roman period, or in Madrid to discover attractions like the Prado Museum and the 18th-century Royal Palace. Travel south to Moorish Spain to find yourself surrounded by imposing medieval structures, including the world-famous Alhambra, and stunning mountain vistas in Granada, or venture toward the UNESCO World Heritage-listed city of Salamanca, called the "Golden City" for its golden sandstone buildings.

Our seamless vacations allow you to explore Spain independently, soaking up its cuisine and culture, embark on an escorted journey with an expert Tour Manager, or cruise along the Douro River to combine your time in Spain with neighboring Portugal. No matter how you explore, savor the local wines and regional cuisine that make Spain one of the world's top destinations.
