In the evening, we will take you to Plaza Mayor and La Latina, two of Madrid’s most iconic areas, known for their lively atmosphere, charming squares, and excellent tapas culture.

Here you may enjoy dinner at the restaurant of your choice, with options ranging from Indian and Chinese cuisine to traditional Spanish flavors and Middle Eastern dishes.

After enjoying our breakfast, we will begin an inspiring morning journey through the heart of Madrid. With our local guide, you will explore emblematic avenues such as Paseo del Prado, framed by grand museums and elegant architecture, before admiring the iconic fountains of Cibeles and Neptuno, symbols of the city’s historic identity.

After a delicious breakfast, you will leave Madrid through La Mancha highway towards Puerto Lápice. This highway was born thanks to the most universal work of Spanish literature: Don Quixote de La Mancha by the Spanish writer Don Manuel de Cervantes Saavedra.

During your trip you will be able to contemplate different landscapes, towns and monuments that take you to those scenes that the author wrote with his privileged pen. You will contemplate the famous windmills, confused by Don Quixote with outrageous giants, which can represent the imaginary enemies that we create and prevent us from achieving our dreams.

You will arrive to Granada and have some time to enjoy a delicious included lunch. Later you will visit the world-famous Alhambra complex and Generalife​ ​Gardens, that have inspired several authors with its sound and​ ​sights, such as the “Tales of the Alhambra” by W. Irving. 

​​It was the largest political and aristocratic center of the Muslim West. The Palace enclosure is made up of rectangular patios of great beauty and numerous fountains, in addition to the Nasrid buildings that served as residences for kings and their servants.

The oldest building is the Alcazaba. One of the most important constructions is the Torre de la Vela, from where one of the most beautiful views of the Alhambra can be seen. The Patio de los Leones and its fountain is one of the most beautiful in the complex.

Later that night, you will return to the hotel for the overnight stay.

Greca Tip:​ The name Alhambra has its origins in an Arabic word that means "red castle", due to the color tone of the towers and walls that completely surround the​ ​La Sabic​a​​ hill​.

After enjoying our breakfast, we will leave Granada behind and begin a beautiful morning journey along the shimmering coastline of the Costa del Sol, where gentle Mediterranean views accompany us on our way to the port. Upon reaching Algeciras or Tarifa, we will board a modern ferry to cross the legendary Strait of Gibraltar—a symbolic passage between continents. Please note that passengers must carry their own luggage, as the bus does not usually travel on the ferry.

Once in Morocco, an entirely new landscape will unfold before us: vast horizons, coastal breezes, and the distinctive charm of North Africa. Our first stop will be the enchanting town of Asilah, a white-walled jewel on the Atlantic coast. Known in the past as a fortified port and a refuge for corsairs, Asilah today thrives with colorful murals, peaceful streets, and an unmistakable artistic spirit. You will have free time for lunch as you soak in its serene beauty.

In the afternoon, our journey continues northward to Rabat, the elegant capital of Morocco, where tradition and modernity coexist harmoniously.
