Embark on a sweeping 21-day journey across the Iberian Peninsula, where grand capitals meet whitewashed villages, Moorish palaces rise above olive groves, and coastal cities hum with tradition and flavour. From Madrid to Lisbon, we trace the legacies of explorers, poets, and pilgrims—crossing from Spain’s medieval strongholds to Portugal’s sun-kissed Atlantic shores. Along the way, we stand in awe beneath Cordoba’s Mezquita, soak in the views from Ronda’s cliffside, and wander the lantern-lit alleys of old Lisbon. We sample port wine in Porto, walk the final steps to Santiago’s famed cathedral, and gaze out over the Douro and Tagus rivers.
