Andalucía & Southern Spain

Wind down the window, decide who’s going to be the non-sherry-drinking driver and stick some flamenco on the sound system; the caminos of Andalucía are calling in the same way they once called Roman legionnaires, sighing Moors and 19th-century romantics dreaming of Carmen and Don Juan.

Immortalised in operas and depicted in Goya-era works of art, Andalucía often acts as a synonym for Spain, a land of troubadours, bull-fighters, operatic heroines, and Roma singers wailing sad laments.

While time may have eroded many of the clichés, the passion of Andalucía remains. Experience it driving between mountains, Moorish cities and hilltop villages on a network of well-maintained 21st-century roads.
