With its historic architecture, cosmopolitan population and seafront location, Barcelona makes a popular base for travelers to Spain, and whether you have a few days or over a week, there’s plenty to keep you busy in and around the city. Barcelona is also a great starting point for exploring the rest of the country, with a number of multi-day tours available and an excellent rail system with trains that reach destinations all over the country.

If you’re short on time you will find ample sights in the Catalonian region. A 2 or 3 day itinerary would allow you to take in the famous Salvador Dali museum in Figueres, the ancient walled city of Girona, and a hiking expedition on Montserrat. Alternatively, you could head down the coast to Valencia, the birthplace of Spain’s most famous dish – paella. Along the way enjoy the beaches of Sitges, explore the Roman ruins of Tarragona and discover Catalonia’s famous Cava (sparkling wine) with a tour of the Penedes wine region.

With more time, it’s an easy trip south to the Andalucian region, where cities like Seville, Cordoba and Granada hold a number of attractions. Visit Granada’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed Alhambra Palace and the Costa del Sol region hosts world class beach resorts. You could also, journey inland to the capital of Madrid, where you can hit the glitzy shopping district, visit the nearby UNESCO World Heritage City of Toledo, or detour north to the French border, where hiking and cycling expeditions abound throughout the famous Pyrenees mountain range.

Doing what: 5-Day Spain Tour: Cordoba, Seville, Granada and Toledo from Barcelona

An absolutely wonderful road trip. First class tour guides for each major site as well as our on-board coordinator and the superb bus driver. The Julia Travel folks in Spain do a great job. We loved every minute of it even though we normally avoid "mass tourism". But if you want to see all the incredible sights of Andalucia and La Mancha in a few days this is the only way to go. Highly recommended.
