Top 5 Places to Visit on Your Andalucia Trip

Granada

This stunning Andalucian city is drenched in rich history and strewn with impressive architecture. The Alhambra palace and fortress complex is one of the most notable sites and boasts exquisite Moorish art and architecture. Walk along the narrow winding streets lined with whitewashed houses in historic Albaicín district and learn about the city’s fascinating medieval past. Granada is also home to the imposing Granada Cathedral, a masterpiece of Spanish Renaissance architecture, which nestles in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. Combining cultural heritage with natural beauty, this is a captivating destination that begs to be explored on Andalucia tours.

Seville

Embodying the essence of Spanish culture, Seville is the vibrant capital of Andalucia and a must-visit destination on our Andalucia trips. Throughout its ancient streets, you’ll find traditional flamenco dancing music, authentic tapas bars and lively festivals. At the heart of the city’s historic centre are several Unesco World Heritage Sites. The Seville Cathedral is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world and houses the tomb of Christopher Columbus. Discover the city’s heady concoction of Moorish and Christian architecture at the Alcázar, a historic palace complex showcasing ornate buildings, gardens and plazas.

Sierra Nevada

This iconic mountain range looms above southern Spain and is home to diverse ecosystems and endemic flora and fauna. The Unesco Biosphere Reserve encompasses much of the landscape and boasts the highest peak in mainland Spain, Mulhacén. As you hike along meandering trails, you’ll discover Moorish settlements hidden inside beautiful valleys, which are hugged on all sides by snow-dusted peaks. Visit the white village of Trevelez, the highest in Spain, and sample the delicious serrano ham.

Caminito del Rey

Meaning ‘The King’s Little Path’, The Caminito del Rey is a spectacular walkway that runs through the Gaitanes Gorge in El Chorro. Originally built in the early 20th century for workers at the nearby hydroelectric plant, the path fell into disrepair and became known as one of the most dangerous hikes in the world. Following extensive renovations, the path reopened in 2015 and stretches along the steep walls of the gorge for approximately eight kilometres. Along the trail, you’ll pass through canyons and cliffs and enjoy panoramic views of Desfiladero de los Gaitanes gorge.

El Chorro Gorge

Also known as La Garganta del Chorro, El Chorro Gorge is a dramatic natural feature formed by river erosion and can be reached along the Caminito del Rey. This precipitous walkway clings to the limestone peaks and winds up to the gorge, famous for its steep cliffs which stand at 400 metres high. The path has been restored and is now a safe yet thrilling hike on our Andalucia trips. From El Chorro Gorge, you can soak up magnificent views of the rugged mountains and the Guadalhorce River below.

Andalucia Trips

Andalucia has a stunning coastline that rightly draws crowds. But beyond that, Andalucia trips also offer exquisite Moorish art and architecture in cities like Granada, Seville and Cordoba, as well as some simply incredible scenery: the Sierra Nevada with its soaring vistas, and the rolling plains of rich greens in the Guadalquivir valley.

Cliff-top Ronda oozes charismatic charm. The old town, perched on top of the El Tajo cliffs, is famous for its dramatic views. Cut in half by a steep gorge 120m deep, the two sides of the town are linked by three spectacular viaduct-like bridges. And then there’s Andalucian food: no other region in Spain offers such diversity.

I’ve wanted to visit Andalucia for more than 20 years and this trip did not disappoint. It was, to me, the perfect blend of rural walking and city time- with my favorite moments being the pastures and small villages, learning about olive production, local plants, and life in Algamitas. The Cortijo is lovely, and though simple, had everything we need (including a pool!) The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful and Felipe, the manager, was especially thoughtful in taking care of everyone. My traveling companion and I both have dietary/medical restrictions and Felipe and the wonderful kitchen staff went to great lengths to ensure we had what we needed (we know gluten free pasta, bread and cereal can’t be easy to come by in a rural area, and that making a separate version of a meal is a lot of work), but made it seem effortless. Our guide, Miguel, is funny and personable and knows so much about the area: archaeology, geology, plant life, birds, and people- and he clearly makes a great effort to know the neighbors in the village and connect with people. He also runs a tight ship to keep people safe and cared for! He also goes to great lengths to make sure his groups have a great time and get to do the things they want to do. I thought the walking was the right challenge for a level 2- the biggest variable was the sun and heat, but he made sure we were hydrated and prepared. We didn’t have any rain, but that would also make for a different kind of challenge. And we lucked out with a group of lovely, funny, caring fellow-travelers. This trip was to celebrate my friends’ and my 40th birthdays this year, and it was exactly what we wanted it to be!

Rebecca Cox Walking in Andalucia

Our recent trip to Andalucía was nothing short of spectacular. Nestled in the heart of the countryside, I stayed at a rustic Cortijo that perfectly blended traditional charm with modern comfort. Surrounded by olive groves and rolling hills, the Cortijo offered a peaceful retreat with breathtaking views and a cozy, authentic atmosphere.
What truly elevated the experience was the cuisine. Every meal was a celebration of Andalusian flavors—fresh, vibrant, and deeply satisfying – each dish was crafted with care and passion.

Whether exploring nearby whitewashed villages, hiking through the Sierra Nevada, or simply relaxing under the stars with a glass of local wine, this trip was unforgettable.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a soulful escape filled with beauty, flavor, and authentic Spanish hospitality.

mandy-lee vermeulen Walking in Andalucia

Stunning scenery, hilly walks but easy terrain. The Cortico has great views and the outside areas are lovely. Bedrooms not so much. Some rooms are very small, I was allocated a small single room with a single bed, think student dorm, for which I was charged a extra!!! I have marked the trip down for that reason

Plentiful food with alternative diets well catered for .
