Dear Traveller,

The trip I'm sharing with you is our unique take on three of Spain's great cities. It's a journey designed to blend the famous sights in thoughtful ways with the local secrets which take you way beyond the guidebooks to get a real feel for modern-day city life. After all, there's a reason we describe our trips as 'beautifully local'...

In the south, that means hopping between tapas bars with your Sevillano host. In Barcelona, it's pedalling through village-like barrios and stopping for coffee in a leafy plaza. In Madrid, it means walking from the imperial centre into its beating, multicultural heart, where the colours, flavours and sounds are all the richer.

That's just a little taste of what's to come, so let's dive in and see the rest...
