Day One
Fly to Malaga and transfer to your hotel (journey approximately one hour).

Day Two
Today's included excursion is to Seville. In this city of sleepy squares fringed with orange trees we'll visit the huge cathedral, Plaza Espana with its stunning bridge, the Giralda Tower and the exquisite Moorish Alcazar. Stop for tapas and a glass of fino (payable locally), sipped to the sound of flamenco.

Day Three
On today's optional excursion you'll travel, through a countryside dotted with villages of whitewashed houses, to stunning Ronda. Set above the dramatic El Tajo gorge, which cuts a swathe through the sierra, this once-Moorish citadel is a maze of narrow streets with fine Renaissance houses, a historic bull-ring and - across the Puente Nuevo bridge which spans the gorge - a fascinating Roman-style baths.

Day Four
Relax today, or join our full-day optional excursion to Cordoba. This elegant, former Roman and Moorish capital of Spain has at its heart the breathtaking Mezquita - the huge Mosque into which the Christian cathedral has been incorporated. After a guided tour of this magnificent edifice, you're free to explore the narrow lanes and corridors of the nearby ancient Juderia.

Day Five
Today we'll journey, through the foothills of the Alpujarras, to the great city of Granada. Set atop three hills, this former Moorish capital is one of Spain's greatest treasures. Take a sightseeing tour of the city and a guided visit to the awe-inspiring Alhambra, the beautiful formal gardens and walled settlement crowned with the one of the world's finest Moorish palaces.

Day Six
Transfer back to the airport for check-in and your flight home.
