Spain Tours & Trips

Pick Exodus for a Spain holiday that goes far beyond the headline sights (without missing the essentials). Led by an expert local guide, you’ll enjoy carefully planned itineraries that take you to the heart of the country’s culture, landscape and traditions. Here’s why travellers choose us:

Expert local guides: Our local tour leaders are the heart of our adventures in Spain, sharing their insider knowledge, introducing you to the local people, bringing the group together and handling the on-the-ground logistics.

Award-winning adventures: Our awards page speaks for itself. Among others, we’ve been named a Which? Best Rated Recommended Provider and a Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Choice Award winner.

Small groups: Solo travellers, couples and friends make up our welcoming groups, with an average group size of 10 to 12.

Immersive itineraries: Our itineraries are purposefully designed to immerse you in the best of the country, so expect a balance of iconic sights and authentic local experiences. In Spain, that might mean you’re hiking or cycling the Camino de Santiago, staying in a rustic farmhouse in the Andalucian countryside or getting to know scenic trails in the Picos de Europa.

Sustainability: As a certified B Corp, we support local communities by using locally owned accommodation where possible and creating experiences that benefit the people and places we visit.

Stress-free logistics: We arrange accommodation, transport, transfers and many included activities, leaving you free to focus on experiencing Spain rather than planning the details.

A guided tour of Spain can unlock experiences only available with the necessary local knowledge. That’s especially true if you’re planning on visiting multiple destinations, as the transport, accommodation and other logistics are taken care of for you – saving plenty of time and stress.

Spain’s diversity means you can experience remarkably different landscapes and cultures within one country. You could explore the Moorish architecture and whitewashed villages of Andalucia, walk among the limestone peaks of the Picos de Europa, follow sections of the Camino de Santiago or cycle through the countryside and coastal landscapes of Catalonia.

On an Exodus small-group tour, your expert local guide helps you explore beyond the headline sights, handling on-the-ground logistics and smoothing any issues, while sharing their local knowledge along the way.

Spain can be visited year-round, but March to June and September to November generally offer excellent conditions for sightseeing, walking and cycling.

• For cultural sightseeing, these months can be ideal for exploring cities and historic sites, particularly in Andalucia and central Spain.
• In the Picos de Europa and northern Spain, conditions can be more changeable, particularly in the mountains.
• For cycling in Catalonia, the milder temperatures outside the hottest summer months make for more comfortable days in the saddle.
• On the Camino de Santiago, spring and September to October can be particularly pleasant for walking, while July and August bring warmer conditions.

The best time to travel depends on the region and activities included, so check your Trip Notes for guidance on your chosen itinerary.

Spain’s regions feel strikingly different, which makes it a rewarding choice for a first-time visit on a guided tour with Exodus. Andalucia is the classic choice for history and tradition, with Seville, Córdoba and Granada revealing Moorish architecture, flamenco and tapas culture. Catalonia pairs Barcelona’s energy with Mediterranean landscapes and excellent food, while northern Spain offers greener scenery, walking routes and distinctive regional identities. For year-round outdoor adventure, the Canary Islands add volcanic trails and dramatic coastlines. Many visitors return because Spain rarely feels like the same trip twice.

Spain’s must-visit places depend on the adventure you’re after, and our guided tours are designed to help you experience its highlights and lesser-known corners. For culture, Madrid and Barcelona deliver major galleries, bold architecture and brilliant food, while Granada and Seville bring Moorish palaces, flamenco and Andalucian character. Walkers should look north to the Picos de Europa for jagged limestone peaks, or south to the Sierra de Aitana for rugged Mediterranean trails. The Camino de Santiago ends in Compostela, one of Europe’s most important pilgrimage cities. For cycling, Girona and the Catalan coast stand out for smooth roads, coastal scenery and serious pro-rider pedigree.

On a Spain holiday with Exodus, your cultural experiences are shaped by regional identity and heritage. In Andalucia, that might mean Moorish architecture in Granada, Córdoba and Seville, a flamenco performance, or time in whitewashed villages surrounded by olive groves. In Madrid, you can explore grand squares, galleries and tapas bars, while Barcelona brings Gaudí architecture, markets and Catalan cooking. Along the Camino de Santiago, culture is experienced through pilgrim traditions, a shared sense of purpose and community spirit, plus Galicia’s distinctive food.

Spain ranks among Europe’s top adventure travel destinations thanks to its extraordinary variety. Hikers adore the rugged mountains of the Picos de Europa and the pilgrim spirit of the Camino de Santiago, while the world’s top cyclists congregate in Girona and along the Catalan coast. Culture-rich cities, such as Barcelona and Seville, reward curious travellers, while the islands add volcanic landscapes, coastal trails and year-round outdoor appeal. Distinct regional cuisine, celebrated wines, well-connected airports and strong transport links make Spain a stress-free and rewarding destination to discover with Exodus.
