This escape takes you into the heart of Andalusia — the majestic palaces of Granada’s Alhambra and the layered sanctuaries of Córdoba’s Mezquita‑Cathedral — where access, twilight light and intimacy turn sightseeing into something deeply personal.

The Journey Into Andalusian Majesty
Begin your journey in Seville, where the orange‑blossomed streets, ornate courtyards and the winding Guadalquivir River set the tone. Check in at a refined hotel steeped in regional elegance. At dusk, wander the Santa Cruz quarter, enjoy a private flamenco performance, and savor the warmth of Andalusian nights.
Seville: The Spirit of Andalucía
Granada: The Alhambra After Hours
In Granada, arrive at the Alhambra as the crowds depart. With your private guide you enter the fortress‑palace behind locked gates, walking through the Nasrid Palaces and Generalife gardens in twilight solitude. The arches, fountains and gardens belong to you alone as the last lights fade. Days are filled with hidden workshops, artisan tastes and terraces overlooking the Sierra Nevada.
Córdoba: Mezquita to Mystery
Next, travel to Córdoba and check into a boutique palace‑hotel. As evening falls, you enter the Mezquita‑Cathedral through doors reserved just for you, under striped arches that echo centuries of faith and conquest. Alongside a curator, you explore hidden corners where history lingers in silence. The next day reveals the Jewish Quarter, Roman bridges and olive groves beyond the city walls.
Relaxation & Reflection
At the end of your visit, unwind at a secluded retreat on the Costa de la Luz or within the hills of Sierra Morena. Time for relaxed meals, still moments among olive trees, sun‑lit patios and quiet contemplation of what you have discovered.

Why This Escape Resonates
This is far more than a tour of landmarks — it’s a passage through layers of time, culture and architecture, seen not as an outsider but as one invited in. The Alhambra and Mezquita‑Cathedral aren’t just visited — they’re felt. At the end of nine nights, you’ll carry with you memories of places that revealed their secrets to you, of light falling on ancient stones, of stillness inside grand halls, and of a connection to Andalucía that lingers long after you depart.
