France & Spain
Combine French flair with Spanish panache on a 22-day adventure through two of Europe’s biggest names. Soak up the bright lights of Paris before hopping on a train to Nimes in the south of France, home to well-preserved Roman monuments from 70 AD. Sample buttery croissants and local wines along the way, then cross into Spain and feel the buzz of Barcelona before touring all the way to Tarifa and back. Settle in with sangria and tapas, take in a flamenco performance and feast on some of the world’s best paella. This is a trip bursting with colour and culture.
