Madrid and Complete Andalucia

15-day independent rail trip through Madrid and Andalucia

Railbookers runs this 15-day, 14-night independent rail package covering the Andalucia region from a Madrid base, taking in some of southern Spain's best-known historic sites. The trip visits Granada for the Alhambra Palace and a Flamenco show, then travels to Cordoba to tour the Mezquita, spends a day in Jaen, takes the train to Cadiz, described as one of the oldest cities in the world, and continues to Seville to see the Alcazar and Cathedral. A day trip from the Seville area reaches the mountain top city of Ronda before the route returns toward Madrid by way of Malaga. As an independent rail package, trains and accommodation are arranged, but there is no guide leading the group. It suits travelers who want two weeks to see Andalucia's palaces, mosques, and historic cities at a steady pace, with the flexibility of independent travel. Prices start from 4,149 US dollars.

What to know before you look closer

  • The evidence for this package cuts off mid-description after the day trip to Ronda, so the exact routing back to Madrid and how the 14 nights split across the cities are not fully known; confirm the complete itinerary and hotel nights with Railbookers before booking.
  • The evidence lists no specific departure dates for this trip; confirm current availability with Railbookers.
