18-Day Journey Through Spain, Portugal & Morocco

From Madrid to Marrakesh — a sweeping passage through history, culture, and landscape across three remarkable countries.


This Spain Portugal Morocco tour covers 18 days of immersive travel across Southern Europe and North Africa, connecting iconic capitals, ancient medinas, Roman ruins, and Atlantic coastlines into one coherent and well-paced itinerary.

From the golden sandstone of Salamanca to the tiled facades of Porto, from the pilgrimage site of Fatima to the labyrinthine alleys of Fes El Bali, the route is structured to reveal the depth of each destination without rushing through it. Guided visits alternate with free time so travelers can absorb each city at their own pace.

Crossing the Strait of Gibraltar by ferry marks the transition into Morocco, where imperial cities — Tangier, Fes, Meknes, Marrakesh, and Rabat — unfold across several days of guided exploration. The return journey passes through Andalusia, with visits to Granada's Alhambra and the historic city of Toledo before arriving back in Madrid.

Throughout the trip, the itinerary balances UNESCO World Heritage Sites, optional evening experiences such as Fado music and flamenco shows, and cultural encounters that give genuine insight into the traditions of each region.

Tour Highlights

Explore the medina of Fes El Bali, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with over 785 mosques and 2,000 streets, squares, and alleys.

Visit Lisbon's Belem District, including the Tower of Belem, the Monument to the Navigators, and the Jeronimos Monastery.

Cross the Strait of Gibraltar by ferry and discover Tangier, Cape Spartel, and the Grotto of Hercules on the northern tip of Africa.

Walk through Marrakesh's Djemaa el-Fna square, a living museum and intangible cultural heritage site filled with storytellers, musicians, and artisans.

Tour the Alhambra and Generalife in Granada, the former residence of Moorish kings featuring ornate fountains, gardens, and carved archways.

Discover Merida's Roman Theatre and Amphitheatre, a UNESCO World Heritage archaeological site that preserves some of Iberia's finest Roman monuments.

Taste Port wine at a traditional winery in Porto and experience the birthplace of Fado music in the historic streets of Coimbra and Lisbon.
