SPANISH MEDITERRANEAN
Discover the soul of the Spanish Mediterranean: culture, flavors, and relaxation from Valencia to the Balearic Islands
This isn’t just a tour—it’s a journey through the heart of the Spanish Mediterranean, where every stop is a celebration of culture, food, landscape, and history. This isn’t about rushing from one place to another—it’s about soaking in the vibrant energy of Valencia, the laid-back beauty of Menorca, and the royal elegance of Mallorca.
Imagine wandering through Valencia’s lively streets, where modern art meets historical treasures and traditions come alive in every corner. We’ll stay three nights in this Mediterranean gem, savoring the famous flavors of Spain—including a hands-on experience learning how to prepare the iconic paella. It’s the perfect way to connect with Spanish culture through its most beloved dish.
From there, we take to the skies and fly to Menorca, a tranquil Balearic island where time slows down. Here, we’ll spend two nights immersed in stunning coastlines and charming villages. Menorca is a feast for the senses—fresh Mediterranean cuisine, breathtaking views, and a surprising British heritage that introduced the island’s famous gin tradition. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the simple beauty of this unspoiled paradise.
Our journey continues as we board a boat to Mallorca, the largest of the Balearic Islands and a favorite summer escape for Spanish royalty. Based in the heart of the capital for three nights, we’ll explore the city’s grandeur—including its magnificent Gothic cathedral, one of Spain’s most remarkable architectural wonders. Mallorca combines vibrant city life, coastal beauty, and centuries of history, offering the perfect finale to our adventure. And with easy flights to most major European cities, heading home (or continuing your journey) couldn’t be simpler.
This tour is all about experiencing the Spanish Mediterranean from the inside—tasting local flavors, connecting with local traditions, and discovering the hidden gems most travelers miss. It’s a trip designed to awaken your senses and leave you with memories to cherish. I’m thrilled to share this experience with you—join me for a journey that’s equal parts relaxing, delicious, and unforgettable!
