Highlights of Northern Spain

The adventure

Spain is often described as a collection of small nations, each with its own unique flair, and this seven-day adventure takes you through two of its most vibrant regions: Basque and Catalonia. From the colourful streets of Barcelona to the laid-back vibes of San Sebastián, you’ll get an authentic taste of Spain’s food, art, and culture. Capture unforgettable photos of the stunning countryside and centuries-old cathedrals, unwind with a glass of wine in Logroño’s lush vineyards, and dive into the legendary cuisine of San Sebastián. Immerse yourself in the Basque way of life before wrapping up in the port city of Bilbao. All in just a week? Oh yeah, we made it happen.
