Andalusian itinerary

Charm, local colour, high spirits, culture and art are just a few of the terms used to describe the cities along this seven-day route in two directions (Seville to Granada and vice versa). Passengers can also explore these places on specially arranged guided tours.One example of a typical stage, on the route from Seville to Granada, the train departs Seville (known for its Giralda, Cathedral or Alcázar) towards Jerez (make sure not to miss its wine and its traditional horse shows).The third, fourth and fifth days include stops in Ronda (with spectacular views), Cordoba (with its Mosque-Cathedral and its wonderful historic centre), Úbeda and Baeza (World Heritage Cities). After a sixth day devoted entirely to getting to know Granada (with its impressive Alhambra and the opportunity to enjoy flamenco), the seventh day concludes with extra time to visit the Nasrid city and a farewell meal on board. The plan for the Granada-Seville direction is very similar, but in reverse.
