Day 2

Following breakfast at the hotel, you will depart for Toledo, a city so architecturally rich that Spain has declared it a national monument. UNESCO agreed and designated the historic center a World Heritage site, in part because three religions existed harmoniously here—Christianity, Islam and Judaism.

As you walk through this extraordinary city on the Tagus River, you will get a genuine feel for what life was like here in the Middle Ages. The historic city center is that atmospheric. The Toledo Cathedral is particularly impressive, as it is considered one of Europe’s greatest Gothic buildings. Built over nearly three centuries, starting in 1226, the cathedral contains a spectacular high altar and two painting by El Greco, the famed painter that lived in Toledo.

Lunch follows, after which you will return to Madrid. As an introduction to Spain’s vibrant capital, you will drive past key landmarks before starting an enlightening walking tour in Plaza Mayor. This grand arcaded square in the heart of the city offers wonderful options for shopping and dining nearby, as you may discover during free time.

By late afternoon, you will return to the hotel, where you will spend the evening with dinner on your own.

DAY 3

After breakfast at the hotel, you will drive to Segovia, a World Heritage site perhaps best known for its aqueduct that was probably constructed during the reign of Roman emperor Trajan. Until about 100 years ago, the aqueduct still carried water from the Frio River into Segovia 10 miles away.

The Alcazar is another landmark that is impossible to miss. Construction began in the 12th century and its fabulous fairy-tale style supposedly inspired the design of the Walt Disney castle in part. You will also spend time in Segovia’s walled upper town, whose cathedral is the last Gothic one built in Spain. It stands where Isabella I was proclaimed the Queen of Castile in 1474.

Following lunch in Segovia, you will drive to the 16th-century Royal Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial on the outskirts of Madrid. It too is a World Heritage site and celebrated for its austere appearance, which influenced Spanish architecture for the next half century or so. As you wander through the interior, the guide will describe the building’s illustrious history, including how King Philip II conceived El Escorial as a funerary monument for his father.

After visiting, you will return to the hotel in Madrid, where you will spend the evening with dinner on your own.

Note: In Segovia you will have approximately 1km / .6 miles of walking over cobblestones and paved surfaces, with some ascending inclines and in Escorial there will be approximately 2.5 km / 1.5 miles of walking over flat, paved surfaces.

DAY 4

After breakfast at the hotel, check out and meet your local guide for a two-hour drive to Siguenza. Enjoy the changing landscape along the way.

Arrive to the ancient town of Siguenza, considered one of the best kept villages in Spain. Located in a strategical location and overlooking a fertile area, the town has been inhabited since the paleolithic time, and conserves evident traces of ancient settlers such as Romans, Visigots and Arabs just to name a few.

Follow your guide on a stroll through its medieval streets, admire the central square “ Plaza Mayor “ and the façades of many elegant palaces houses, churches and convents that reflect the ancient important of Siguenza.

After lunch in typical restaurant, continue to Zaragoza (2 hour drive). Its star attraction is the multi-domed Basilica of Pilar, an important pilgrimage site. According to local legend, the Virgin Mary gave Saint James a pillar made of jasper here and instructed him to build a church on the site. This last version of El Pilar, as it’s known locally, was constructed beginning in the late 17th century.

Upon arrival, enjoy a walking tour of the old quarter. See the famous Basilica of Pilar: overlooking the Ebro River, it is famous pilgrimage site with a shrine to the Virgin Mary and multiple domes.

Day 2

After breakfast at the hotel, meet your guide in the lobby for a morning tour of the Sagrada Familia. The basilica’s heavily ornate exterior walls, its eye-catching and complex designs, the play of light and shadow on the wall reliefs and the magnitude of the construction are enough to overwhelm even the most ardent of design aficionados. Famed architect Antoni Gaudí envisioned the Sagrada Familia with 18 monumental spires, 10 of which are still under construction.

Next, follow your guide on a leisurely walk along the pedestrian-friendly Avinguda Gaudi, passing cafés and shops until you reach Sant Pau Hospital, another modernist masterpiece of Barcelona. This UNESCO World Heritage site complex was built between 1901 and 1930 and designed by the Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner. It was a fully functioning hospital until June 2009, when a new hospital opened next to it. The original building has been restored and is now a museum and cultural center.

After visiting the Sant Pau Hospital, enjoy lunch in a lovely restaurant in the upper part of the city offering beautiful views over Barcelona.

A panoramic drive ending at the Gothic Quarter follows lunch. This is the oldest part of Barcelona. You will follow the guide along pedestrian-only alleyways and through lively squares on the way to Plaça Sant Jaume, where you will find the magnificent town hall. You will also see from the outside, the 600-year-old Cathedral of Santa Eulàlia, which was built on the site of a Roman temple dedicated to Hercules, and a section of the medieval walls that once protected the city.

Afterwards, you will return to the hotel to spend the evening. Dinner is on your own.

Day 3

After breakfast at the hotel, you will meet the guide and drive to the magnificent Abbey of Montserrat. Perching atop a multi-peak mountain with fingerlike pinnacles, the abbey offers stunning views of the Catalonia region.

According to the legend, villagers discovered a statue of the Madonna in a grotto centuries ago and as a result, it became a pilgrimage site that still draws thousands to venerate the image, which now resides in a grand basilica. Over time, candle smoke darkened the image, which is now known as the Black Virgin.

Benedictine monks have served the abbey for almost a thousand years. They are dedicated to a life of prayer, work and welcoming pilgrims. You will ascend the mountain on a rack railway, a trip that will present stunning views. Upon arriving at the abbey, you will visit the sanctuary and its museum before enjoying free time for further exploration or simply to admire the beauty of the surroundings.

In time, you will drive to the Pere Ventura wine estate in the Penedes wine region, an area revered for its white wines and sparkling cava. During a comprehensive tour of the estate, you will visit the vineyards, the wine cellar and its underground chapel. A wine tasting follows, as does a spectacular lunch made with locally sourced ingredients.

Afterwards, you will return to your hotel for the evening. Dinner is on your own.

Day 4

After breakfast at the hotel, you will depart for a short transfer to the Born Quarter, a trendy neighborhood located between the Gothic Quarter and Ciutadella Park. It is one of the liveliest, most historic areas of Barcelona.

Although notorious in medieval times for public executions and the burning of alleged witches, the Born Quarter became more prosperous and respectable in the 13th century. Its labyrinth of narrow streets reveals a wonderful mix medieval and more contemporary architecture that includes the 14th-century Santa Maria del Mar church, a 19th-century market hall and the Center for Culture and Memory.

Upon reaching the Santa Caterina Food Market, you will meet a chef that will accompany you through the stalls and describe the ingredients in many of the most popular local dishes. You will then follow the chef to a nearby venue and prepare a meal for lunch in a hands-on cooking class. The meal will be paired with a selection of cava and wine.

After this enlightening culinary experience, you will return to the hotel. The remainder of the day is at leisure and dinner is on your own.

Day 5

After breakfast at the hotel, the morning will be at your leisure. Around noon, you will check out of the hotel and transfer to the pier to embark the ship.
