Our Spain, Portugal and Morocco tour is an 11-day cultural crossing of the western Mediterranean. You will trace the Moorish thread that ties Iberia to North Africa – Roman bridges, Gothic cathedrals, Andalusian palaces and living medinas – travelling with a licensed local guide, private transfers and hand-picked riads and hotels. It is built for travellers who want depth, comfort and a halal-friendly rhythm without a rushed coach-tour feel.

Day-by-day itinerary

Day 1

Arrival in Lisbon

Meet and greet at the airport and a private transfer to your hotel. In the afternoon, a panoramic city tour takes in Belem Tower, the Jeronimos Monastery and the Monument to the Discoveries. The evening is yours to feel out Lisbon over dinner.

Day 2

Sintra, Cascais & Estoril

A full day in the UNESCO-listed hills of Sintra, crowned by the candy-coloured Pena Palace, with free time to browse and eat. Then the coast: the royal bay of Cascais and the gardens and casino of Estoril before returning to Lisbon.

Day 3

Lisbon to Seville

Fly south to Seville. In the afternoon, a guided bike tour glides past the Murillo Gardens, Plaza de Espana, the Cathedral and the Giralda tower, followed by an easy cruise along the Guadalquivir River.

Day 4

Ronda & the white villages

A day in the Sierra: an olive mill in Zahara with oil tasting, the whitewashed lanes of Grazalema, and a family winery near Ronda for a vineyard tour, tasting and lunch. End on Ronda itself – the New Bridge, the historic bullring and its medieval palace.

Day 5

Cordoba & on to Granada

Morning in Cordoba and its breathtaking Mosque-Cathedral, a forest of arches and mosaics, plus the lanes and synagogue of the old Jewish Quarter. In the afternoon, continue to Granada and settle in for the night.

Day 6

Granada & the Alhambra

The day belongs to the Alhambra – the Generalife gardens, the Alcazaba fortress and the intricate Nasrid Palaces, the high point of Moorish Spain. Afterwards, a Segway tour along the cobbled paths of the Albaicin and Sacromonte quarters.

Day 7

Casablanca & on to Fez

Cross to Morocco with a flight to Casablanca and a tour of the immense Hassan II Mosque, rising right over the Atlantic. Then travel on to Fez, checking in for two nights in the spiritual heart of the country.

Day 8

The medina of Fez

A full day inside Fez el-Bali, the UNESCO-listed old city and one of the largest car-free urban zones on earth. Visit the Bou Inania and El Attarine madrasas, watch the famous tanneries at work, and pause for mint tea on Nejjarine Square.

Day 9

Rabat & on to Marrakech

Drive west with a stop in the capital, Rabat, to tour the 12th-century Kasbah of the Udayas above the river mouth. Continue to Marrakech and check in for the final two nights of the journey.

Day 10

Marrakech

Explore the Red City: the ornate Bahia Palace, the ruins of the Badi Palace and the Saadian Tombs, and the jewel-box Douiria of 17th-century craftsmanship. As night falls, dive into Jemaa el-Fna, alive with performers, storytellers and food stalls.

Day 11

Departure

A final Moroccan breakfast before your private transfer to Marrakech Menara Airport and your flight home – or ask us to extend your stay with a Sahara desert night or an Atlantic coast escape.

Frequently asked questions

Is this Spain, Portugal and Morocco tour halal-friendly?

Yes. We can arrange halal meals throughout, note prayer times in the daily pace, and point you to nearby mosques. Just tell us your preferences when you book and we build them in.

Are flights included in the price?

The advertised price is land-only, per person based on double occupancy. As a full-service Montreal agency we can add your flights from Montreal or any Canadian city and quote the trip as a complete package.

When is the best time to go?

Spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) are ideal – warm days across Iberia and Morocco without the peak-summer heat of Andalusia and Marrakech. We run this itinerary year-round on private dates.

Can the itinerary be customised?

Absolutely. This is a starting point. We can add a Sahara desert night, extend Marrakech, upgrade hotels, or shape a private departure for your family or group. Tell us what you have in mind.
