Self-guided rail loop through Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, and Madrid on Spain's AVE trains

Illustration of Spanish Fiesta

Spanish Fiesta is an 11-day self-guided rail holiday operated by Eurailing Packages, running from Barcelona to Madrid via Valencia and Seville. You travel on Spain's AVE high-speed trains, with all rail tickets and seat reservations included in the from-price of USD 1,195. Each night you stay in a hostel dorm room (upgradeable to private or hotel accommodation for an extra fee). You navigate Spain independently, supported by a dedicated app, offline itinerary guides, digital check-in, and round-the-clock phone and app support. There is no tour manager or local guide; the trip suits independent travellers who want to explore Spain's regional character at their own pace. Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, and Madrid offer different flavours: Gaudi's architecture in Barcelona, coastal charm in Valencia, flamenco culture in Seville, and royal landmarks in Madrid. You arrange all meals and paid activities yourself.
