28 DAYS

BIKING & TOURING (DAYS 20-27 TOURING BY PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION - NO BIKING)

Biking in Spain

Your group will bike first in the beautiful Mino river valley. You'll cycle past terraced vineyards and olive groves, picnic under Roman walls and bike over Roman arched bridges, cycle in impressive, deep river gorges and through fragrant pine forests on your way to the sea. Your group will bike into Portugal for 3 days before continuing up the coast of Spain along picturesque coastal inlets, stopping to swim at sparkling white sand beaches. Your group will explore outdoor markets, perhaps buying tasty empanadas to eat, spend a night in a beautiful walled hilltop town, and explore Santiago de Compostela's narrow medieval streets and magnificent cathedral to which medieval pilgrims journeyed.

Granada, Costa del Sol, Toledo & Madrid

Using public transportation (no biking), your group will explore fascinating Granada and tour the amazing Alhambra. You'll spend two days on the beaches of the Costa del Sol, and explore famous Toledo before heading to Madrid. Here you'll see all the major sights, explore the famous Prado Museum and royal palace and eat lunch at an outdoor cafe in a plaza.
