    Barcelona, Spain
    • Barcelona, Spain
    • Depart: 18:00:00
    Located on the seashore between the mountains of Montjuic and Tibidabo, Barcelona offers its many visitors a perfect blend of tradition and modernism. Truly an open-air museum, the "prodigious town" reveals an astonishing range of artistic treasures and museums, combining Roman ruins, medieval districts, and a number of avant-garde elements from the 20th century. Over the years, it has been marked by some of the greatest artists, such as Picasso, Miro, or Gaudi, most of whose work has been listed as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Take the time to stroll along the Ramblas and enjoy the gentle typically Mediterranean lifestyle of the capital of Catalonia. ...

    Mahon, Spain
    • Mahon, Spain
    You will be welcomed by the colourful houses of Mahon, its narrow streets and pretty squares that appear as you stroll around this richly contrasting city. Mahon reveals its different neighbourhoods, alternating between monuments, villas, and white buildings. Discover the Santa Maria Church, a building of Neo-Gothic inspiration, rebuilt in the 18th century. It is worth a visit to see its monumental organ with more than 3,000 pipes and four keyboards. Around the Carme Church, you will find a local market, full of stands selling avarcas, typical Menorcan sandals originally made by peasants. Let yourself fall under the spell of this Mediterranean treasure. ...

    Ibiza, Spain
    • Ibiza, Spain
    The emblematic island of the Balearics, "the white island" was a haven for European artistic bohemians from the 1930s and a paradise for hippies in search of authenticity in the 1960s. It has been a giant nightclub for gilded youth since the 1990s. Behind this fiesta economy, Ibiza has managed to preserve the charms of its wild coves and its villages of white fincas with flat roofs that inspired Le Corbusier. The island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site thanks to its exemplary marine and coastal ecosystems but also thanks to the architectural vestiges of this former stronghold of the Mediterranean economy, from the Phoenicians up to the Renaissance. ...

    Valencia, Spain
    • Valencia, Spain
    Valencia - the City of Art and Sciences. Two hearts beat in this Spanish city: one is modern, avantgarde, and almost futuristic; the other is more provincial, more traditional, and nostalgic. Valencia has the temperament of a great Mediterranean city whose wide avenues form a border around the old town. The city has an abundance of architectural styles that coexist harmoniously, but above all it resolutely embraces the 21st century with the futuristic structures of its Agora congress centre and City of Arts and Sciences, emerging from a crystal-blue pool. ...

    Cartagena, Spain
    • Cartagena, Spain
    • Cartagena, Spain
    Surrounded by hills, the natural site of the Bay of Cartagena presided over the fate of this former fortress which has been home to the greatest European civilisations. Today, these Phoenician, Roman, Carthaginian, Moorish, and Christian influences form a rich architectural heritage. Its Roman theatre is one of the most significant and best conserved in Spain. You will also be able to cross the landscapes of vines and citrus groves stretching endlessly towards Murcia for a visit to this dynamic regional capital. ...

    Motril, Spain
    • Motril, Spain
    On the shores of the Mediterranean, Motril enjoys a special place on the Costa Tropical. Sheltered from the cold northerly winds thanks to the mountains that surround this Andalusian city, the city benefits from an ideal micro-climate.

    Malaga, Spain
    • Malaga, Spain
    A historical and festive town, Malaga is located in Andalusia on the Costa del Sol. Between the marina and the beaches, the seaside promenade of La Farola offers an ideal setting for strolling and relaxing. Set slightly further back, the Malagueta Bullring is one of the emblematic sites of the city. From the hill overlooking the old town, one can see Gibralfaro Castle and the Alcazaba, two fortified ensembles rising out from the cypresses and maritime pines. To visit Pablo Picasso's birthplace, you will go first to the courtly Plaza de la Merced. A few streets back from here, you can explore the museum dedicated to the artist in the Buenavista Palace. ...

    Cadiz (Seville), Spain
    • Cadiz (Seville), Spain
    Andalusia's Cadiz is located on the Costa de la Luz, in the south-west of Spain. From the beaches of Cortadura, to the flamenco bars of Santa Maria, through the colourful streets of La Vina, you will be amazed by this city, which is both steeped in history and extremely festive. In the medieval El Populo district, you will stroll along covered passages in the narrow gaps between houses. You will also be able to mosey around the lush Mina Square. The star of the show is the magnificent cathedral and its dome crowned with yellow porcelain, presiding above the ocean. ...

    Lagos, Portugal, Portugal
    • Lagos, Portugal, Portugal
    There stands a natural paradise called Lagos, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, in the Algarve region of southern Portugal. With its picturesque and age-old town center, and the Ponta da Piedade natural site sheltering paradisiacal beaches protected by captivating limestone cliffs in hues of ochre, Lagos enthralls, fascinates, and enchants. In this interesting blend between nature and culture, do not miss the chance to stroll along the small paved streets of its historic center, surrounded by impressive Moorish ramparts and edged with traditional white houses, with decorations sculpted in the stone. In particular, you will be able to admire the Manueline-style Governors' Castle, the 17th-century Ponta da Bandeira Fort, or the Baroque Church of Santo Antonio. ...

    Lisbon, Portugal
    • Lisbon, Portugal
    Portugal's capital city located on the banks of the Tagus, only a few kilometres from the Atlantic coast, is a city of exceptionally rich cultural diversity. At the mouth of the river harbour, two UNESCO World Heritage monuments stand proud, Jeronimos Monastery and Belem Tower. The Alfama hillside is also worth visiting: known for its fado bars and its Moorish streets, this district is the oldest one of the city and one of the most typical. Not far from there, Chiado's elegant streets are home to big fashion labels and are an invitation to a bit of luxury shopping. ...

    • Bus Travel
    • Leixoes, Portugal
    Located at the mouth of the Douro River, the port of Leixoes lies less than 10 kilometres from Porto. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the historic centre of Porto is worth a visit for its famous Ribeira district, the metallic silhouette of the Dom Luis Bridge looming over its ancient houses, richly decorated Baroque churches, and Soares dos Reis National Museum. The Sao Bento Station is also interesting for its typically Portuguese decoration, using azulejos, blue square ceramic tiles decorated with geometric patterns or figurative scenes. ...
