Historic Cities of Spain

11-day independent rail trip across Barcelona, Pamplona, Leon, Santiago, Madrid

Railbookers operates this 11-day, 10-night independent rail package through four historic regions of Spain: Catalonia, Navarra, Leon, and Galicia, finishing in Madrid. Travelers move between Barcelona, Pamplona, Leon, Santiago de Compostela, and Madrid by train, arranging their own days rather than following a group leader. The trip starts with the architecture of Barcelona, continues to Pamplona for tapas and Rioja wine, passes through Leon by train, and reaches Santiago de Compostela for a sense of medieval Spain before ending in the capital, Madrid. It suits travelers interested in history, architecture, and regional food and wine who are comfortable managing their own schedule across five Spanish cities.
