Take that narrow country road which seems to lead to nowhere. Surprise yourself with those little treasures
that are hidden from many and known only to a few. A small chapel built centuries ago, the perfect swimming spot where only locals
go, that unique restaurant where they make the best paella ever tasted, the grape farmer who insists you try his wine out of
sheer pride. Drive & discover is all about the art of enjoying life!

This exotic "city break" takes in the three Moorish capitals of Andalusia. Granada, a small but very cosmopolitan city, with modern avenues in defiant juxtaposition to ancient winding lanes. A visit to the spectacular Alhambra, magical '8th wonder' of the world, makes a perfect start for your holiday. Córdoba, the most beautiful city of an immense 10th-century Moorish kingdom, once boasted 1000 mosques, 800 Arab bath houses and a prestigious university. The awe-inspiring 'Mezquita' recalls that era, while Córdoba's modern-day take on traditional gastronomy also deserves a mention. Sevilla, the captivating capital of Andalucía, is full of magnificent monuments, guitar music, the scent of jasmine and a labyrinth of narrow lanes in which to get lost. Option city cycling tour or flamenco live in Barrio de Santa Cruz. In all, an incredibly varied 5-day tour full of centuries of history, exotic beauty and intoxicating sensations.
