Andalucia Spain
Spain inspires a multitude of images; the fiery passion of Flamenco, mouth-watering tapas, sundrenched white houses ablaze with vibrant cascades of flowers. Embracing these classic qualities
of Spanish culture, Andalucía will leave you stimulated and enriched. Years of Moorish rule and the legacy left by the Catholic monarchs have combined in striking architecture visible throughout the region.
Our 2-centre tour allows you to stay in the ancient cities of Seville and Granada. Alternatively our all-inclusive tour is based in Torremolinos with a series of coach visits to all the major places of interest.
Torremolinos provides an ideal base from which to explore the cities of Andalucía. The town's endless selection of comfortable
hotels is perfect for school groups who wish to visit the region in Spring, Autumn and Winter, providing a more reasonably-priced
alternative to the city-centre accommodation in Seville and Granada.
