A Glimpse into Your 16-Day Itinerary
From Day 1 to Day 7: The Charm of Portugal
Pena Palace - Sintra
Your journey begins in Lisbon, where the golden light of the Tagus River meets the historic walls of the Alfama district. Your first night sets the tone: a sensory dinner at Belcanto, where Chef José Avillez redefines Portuguese cuisine.

From the fairytale palaces of Sintra to the serene cork forests of Alentejo, you will experience the diversity of the Portuguese landscape. In the North, Porto welcomes you with its granite elegance. Imagine learning to cook traditional "Bola de Lamego" with a Countess in a 19th-century estate or sailing the Douro River on a private 1957 vintage yacht.
From Day 8 to Day 16: The Soul of Spain
Crossing into Spain, the atmosphere shifts to the passionate heartbeat of Seville. Here, history is alive in the narrow streets of the Santa Cruz Quarter.

As you move through Ronda, Córdoba, and Granada, you will witness the architectural marvels of the Moors, culminating in a private sunset visit to the Alhambra. The journey finishes in Madrid, where the grandeur of the Royal Palace and the artistic treasures of the Prado Museum await.

To close this epic voyage, we invite you to a legendary Flamenco show, paired with a tasting menu from a Michelin-starred chef, a true celebration of Spanish culture.
