Day 1 - Barcelona

Arrive: Mon 03 August 2026 / Depart: Mon 03 August 2026 at 20:00

Breathe in the cultural heart of Catalan; an elegant blend of high energy and undisturbed tradition. Muse over the origins of captivating Gaudi architecture within the enchanting labyrinth that is the Gothic Quarter. Savour the flavours of fresh tapas and crisp cava in breezy plazas, tranquil terraces and coveted cafés, or glide down to a shimmering beach club to unwind. Imagine a visit to peaceful Passeig de Gracia, where modernist buildings merge to showcase iconic global labels. And, as dusk falls, prepare for urban action and swing by the lively bohemian bars to fiesta on the leafy stretch of La Rambla. If you’re serious about style, this colourful city provides plenty to celebrate.

Day 2 - Ibiza

Arrive: Tue 04 August 2026 at 11:00

Experience the magnetic vibes of Ibiza. Relax as you feel the gentle pull of vibrant island life. Experience Las Salinas salt flats, eat paella, sip sangria, meditate, shop boutiques… do whatever you please. Hidden away are fincas, pine valleys, orange groves, almond trees and lush orchards. Retreat to renowned spas for wellbeing, yoga, massage and healing. Soothe in warm waters at private beach affairs. As darkness falls, cavort in bars and clubs where the world’s finest DJ’s thrill. Warm and easy-going, nature’s elements blend beautifully with island life. It's little wonder that Ibiza has drawn artists, writers, gurus and beatniks for years. Some have never left.

Day 6 - Cadiz

Arrive: Sat 08 August 2026 at 08:00 / Depart: Sat 08 August 2026 at 22:00

Go back in time - where cobbled streets clatter with horse drawn carriages, culture and history seeps through this Spanish city’s soul. Enjoy locally produced tapas and admire the form of iconic Andalusian horses. Drift into tasting tours at sherry wineries in Jerez, then step out to twirl the flamenco. Explore Seville’s architectural marvels; baroque churches, palaces, gothic cathedrals, aristocratic mansions and medieval buildings. With no less than three Unesco World Heritage sites to visit, you’ll feel truly inspired by what Cadiz has to offer.

Day 7 - Portimao

Arrive: Sun 09 August 2026 at 08:00 / Depart: Sun 09 August 2026 at 18:00

Portimão captures the true essence of the Algarve - uninterrupted, calm and so very Portuguese. Cherish breath-taking beaches, Moorish and Gothic architecture, beautiful mosaics and, of course, piles of sardines. Roam in jeeps through green headlands and amble through peaceful old fishing villages that spill into harbours. Hike above amazing red cliffs or escape to sandy shores for an array of water sports. Linger for long lunches of grilled sardines, tuna and mackerel as you appreciate Portugal’s capital canning market. And relax, as you sip local red wine, dolphin gaze and listen to passionate vocal locals.

Day 8 - Lisbon

Arrive: Mon 10 August 2026 at 07:00 / Depart: Mon 10 August 2026

Enjoy the rich buzz of Lisbon. Dip into the city’s strong architectural, cultural and historical connections. Wander charming-cobbled streets, colourful buildings, the river Sado and endless nature. Pilgrimage to Fatima, tour hilly villages, learn Portuguese cooking techniques and listen to the Lisbon blues. Slip to charming Cascais for quieter energy and golden beaches. And as you bathe in the captivating light, enjoy plates of petiscos which - like fado - you’ll soon discover is vibrant, warm and most appealing.
