Character of this travel idea
Pure culture blending maritime traditions with Moorish heritage
The cultural diversity on this tour of Portugal and Spain is exceptionally rich and varied. Madrid impresses with its world-famous museums and royal architecture, whilst Segovia, with its Roman aqueduct, stands as a striking testament to ancient engineering. Salamanca captivates visitors with its historic university and an old town built of golden sandstone.
In Portugal, Porto, Coimbra and Lisbon bear witness to a turbulent maritime history whose influence can still be felt today. Sintra, in particular, with its palaces and gardens, exudes an almost fairy-tale atmosphere. Andalusia, in turn, boasts a cultural heritage all of its own: Seville, Córdoba and Granada reflect the Moorish era – evident in buildings such as the Alhambra or the Mezquita. Even lesser-known places such as Medina Azahara or Toledo enrich this Portugal-Spain tour with impressive insights into bygone eras.
Experience nature in Portugal & Spain
The natural landscape along this round trip through Portugal and Spain is characterised by striking contrasts. From the rolling hills around Madrid to the spectacular coastlines of Portugal, a diverse landscape unfolds. The Douro Valley is one of Europe’s most impressive wine regions, defined by terraces that stretch along the river. Further west, the Atlantic coast near Nazaré and Cascais reveals its rugged beauty with high waves and wide beaches.
In the south of Portugal, the Algarve beckons with its golden cliffs and hidden coves. Nature also has surprises in store inland: the region around Évora has a rustic and peaceful feel, whilst Ronda sits spectacularly perched above a gorge. In Spain, the plains of La Mancha, with their iconic windmills near Campo de Criptana, offer a charm all of their own. This tour through Portugal and Spain harmoniously combines coastal landscapes, historic cultural sites and impressive natural scenery.
The traditional cuisine of two countries
A tour of Spain and Portugal reveals a fascinating culinary diversity, ranging from hearty to sophisticated. In Madrid, tapas bars define the local way of life, whilst in Salamanca, hearty specialities such as jamón ibérico and hearty stews are served.
Along the route, the Douro Valley unfolds to reveal a wine-growing landscape that is not only visually stunning but also a delight to the palate. In Lisbon, traditional dishes such as bacalhau are combined with modern cuisine, whilst in Andalusia, flavours of olive oil, spices and sweet desserts dominate. Granada and Seville surprise with Moorish influences, which are subtly reflected in many dishes. Even smaller towns such as Óbidos or Évora demonstrate just how regional and authentic the cuisine can be.
