Tour Program

After completing ticket, baggage, and passport procedures, we will depart for Malaga on Turkish Airlines flight TK1303 at 07:15. Arrival in Seville is scheduled for 10:50. Following passport, baggage, and customs formalities, our panoramic city tour will include Plaza de España, Torre del Oro, the Monastery of Santa Paula, Maria Luisa Park renowned for its fountains and gardens, and Plaza de Santa Cruz. After the city tour, we will transfer to our hotel. Overnight stay at the hotel.
Seville-Granada-Seville
Morning: Breakfast at the hotel, followed by free time. Guests wishing to join the Granada & Alhambra Palace tour may do so for 110 EUR (subject to availability; the Alhambra tour excludes the Harem). The Alhambra, which admits a limited number of visitors daily, derives its name "Elhamra" (meaning "Red") from the red bricks on its walls and red tiles on its roof. As one of the highest achievements of Islamic architecture, the Alhambra Palace stands as a witness that has reached our days. After visiting the palace, we will explore Granada, a city rich in history and culture located in the heart of Andalusia. Granada is renowned for its historical heritage, music and dance, breathtaking views, and the Alhambra Palace. It is one of Spain's leading tourist destinations, welcoming millions of visitors each year. During our city tour, we will visit Gran Via Avenue, BibRambla and the City Square, Granada Cathedral (exterior view), Madraza (Granada's first university), the Silk Market, and the former Nasrid Caravanserai. Following the tour, we will transfer back to our hotel for an overnight stay.
Seville
After breakfast at the hotel, you will have free time. Guests who wish may join an optional excursion to Cordoba for 80 Euros. In Cordoba, we will first be greeted by the Guadalquivir River. We will enter the city by walking across the historic Roman Bridge and passing through the Roman Gate. Inside this 2,000-year-old city, we will visit its most magnificent structure: the Great Mosque of Cordoba, one of the largest mosques in the world, rising on 850 columns. Accompanied by our guide, we will witness the grandeur of this extraordinary masterpiece while receiving fascinating insights. After the tour of the Great Mosque, we will continue on foot, exploring the pristine old streets and admiring the delicate details of Andalusian architecture, including ancient caravanserais and traditional houses of Cordoba. Following the Cordoba tour, we will proceed towards Seville. Among the sights to see are Maria Luisa Park and Plaza de America, which feature the iconic Plaza de Espana; the Seville Cathedral (exterior view), the third-largest cathedral in the world and home to Christopher Columbus's tomb; the Giralda Minaret, the last remaining part of the mosque upon which the cathedral was built, symbolizing the legacy of the Andalusian Umayyad Caliphate; and the Alcazar Palace (exterior view), the former residence of the Castilian kings. Next, we will pass through the Archive of the Indies, where records of all maritime expeditions to the Americas up to the 19th century are kept, before reaching the narrow, historic streets of Santa Cruz, known as "Old" Seville. At the end of our walk, we will see the Torre del Oro (Golden Tower), formerly a tobacco factory and now a maritime museum, which serves as the main campus of the University of Seville. Guests who wish may also participate in an optional Flamenco Night Tour (without dinner, with one drink included) for 60 Euros. After the tour, we will return to Granada and spend the night at the hotel.
Seville-Malaga-Istanbul
After breakfast at the hotel, we will check out of our rooms and depart for Malaga. Upon arrival in Malaga, a panoramic city tour will be conducted. Guests who wish may join the White Village of Mijas tour for an additional fee of 20 euros. Following this, we will transfer to the airport.
