Why go

Madrid brings national institutions and major football clubs; Barcelona pairs a Mediterranean setting with the architecture of Gaudí and Domènech i Montaner. Córdoba centres a historic urban landscape shaped by the caliphate, while Galicia has rías, hills and a language closely related to Portuguese. These places work as alternative bases or separate trip chapters.

Useful to know

  • Choose one city or region as a base before adding more distant stops.
  • Treat Galicia as a region to explore across several towns and landscapes, not as a single city stop.
