Gibraltar

Gibraltar

The Rock of Gibraltar rises like a sentinel at the Mediterranean entrance, facing its African counterpart across the Strait. From the summit, Morocco shimmers beyond, dolphins can be seen below, and centuries-old tunnels, UNESCO-listed caves, old batteries, and panoramic lookouts recall its long military history. A cable car reaches the top, where Barbary macaques still roam.

Spain

Málaga

Enjoy the epitome of Spanish charm. Slowly discover Andalusian riches to reveal Picasso's birthplace, the Alhambra in Granada, Mezquita in Cordoba and the Ronda valley. Explore ancient heritage sites, dance the flamenco, dare to hike the Caminito del Rey trail and delve into white villages sprinkled amongst mango groves and avocado orchards. Sip cocktails by day and sangria by night. And as you watch the sun slip down, reflect upon this gateway of delights.
