Travel in Spain.
Faraway places, close at hand.
An Andalusian court, a Basque table, a museum in Madrid. Discover Spain through its regions, far beyond one image.
At every wish, his journey
A city, a region or an island?
From the Eastern Pyrenees, Spain may seem familiar. However, choosing a region as a conductive wire opens a very different discovery: architecture, gastronomy, landscapes and ways of living make up unique accommodations.
These ideas help you to choose a direction. Caroline then studies with you the steps, links and possible benefits for your dates.
Places, atmospheres and desiresThe Andalusian Madrid and its surroundings North of Spain
What you come to find.
Take time for art
Museums, places and culinary discoveries can structure a few days. An extension to Toledo or Ségovia is chosen according to the available time, without multiplying the excursions.
The landscape and cuisine
The Basque Country, Asturias and Galicia offer distinct atmospheres. Instead of a quick tour, keep a region to alter cities, landscapes and gourmand stages.
Drawing the right steps
Leave meaningful time for visits
Access to the main monuments is prepared according to availability. Choose some important dates, then preserve free beaches for the markets, terraces and neighborhood life.
An itinerary idea to personalise
An Andalusian discovery can connect two or three cities with several nights in each. A landscape project can remain in the north. The Balearic and Canary Islands ask for a choice of island consistent with your desires.

The guide to make your choices
Prepare your discovery.
Which period should you choose?
South, north coasts and islands are selected according to the period. The heat and the visit of the major sites can change the schedules and the number of visits selected per day.
What will influence your budget
Transportation to destination, the category and location of the nights, travel on the site and accompanied visits are compared together. Give Caroline a cover and your priorities: the project can be adjusted by playing on the steps, comfort or duration, before you stop the services.
Before booking
The formalities and conditions of access are checked for your nationality, your situation and the scheduled dates. Updated practical information is to be consulted with the competent authorities; the report describes the services effectively offered.
Before you launch
Your questions about Spain.
Can we prepare for a short stay from Perpignan?
Yes, a stay centered on a city or region can be built with Caroline. Transportation is chosen according to the starting point, schedules and days actually available.
How can I plan my Spain trip with Odyssée Voyages?
Contact Caroline by phone or by email with your dates, duration, number of travellers and priorities. A first study allows to clarify the possibilities, before any detailed proposal.
Are these ideas matching an already scheduled accompanying start?
not to. This page is an inspiration for a personalized project. The accompanied departies actually published are presented in the accompanied travel section, with their own information.
Take discovery further
Choose a Spain of neighbourhoods, landscapes or shores
Spain is prepared for close escapes as well as travel where you deepen an entire region. Since Perpignan, the familiarity of the names can give the impression of knowing the country; however, Andalusia, Basque Country, Castile and islands do not offer neither the same landscapes nor the same days. The choice of a region gives an identity to the stay even before that of the visits.
A project can start with a museum or a city you dream of understanding. It often gains to open up to places, markets and small roads nearby. We look at geography and seasons before gathering the stages. A consistent progress allows you to live the cuisine, architecture and landscapes without transforming every discovery into a long connection.
Two directions to shape your journey
What thread will connect your itinerary?
Ideas for discovery to personalise according to your dates, pace and local possibilities.
A cultural Andalusia with room to breathe each day
Seville, Cordoba and Grenada are three strong desires that do not demand the same time. A building can retain two cities and dedicate them to real nights, with a place for neighborhoods, gardens and free moments. The monuments will be studied according to your interests and access possibilities, rather than gathered in a mandatory list.
A village or a step in an open landscape can then bring a cultural break. Sometimes it will be more pleasant than adding another big city. Heat, travel and hours of visits are prepared together to preserve comfort; the evening must also be able to live without systematically regaining the road after meals.
A North between urban culture and the Atlantic coast
Bilbao and the surroundings of Saint-Sébastien inspire a journey where architecture, table and coastal meet. A city can serve as an anchor, then a second step gives more space to the coast. It’s not about traveling throughout the north: a well-selected sector allows you to easily return to a place that you appreciate.
A project around the Galice or Asturias offers other reliefs, villages and maritime landscapes. These are alternatives to compare, not steps to cumulate in a week. The program alternates city, small walks and product discovery, taking into account the Atlantic weather and the really desired time on the road.
The region before the map
The Mediterranean and Atlantic Spanish do not respond to the same desire. Choosing a landscape and an atmosphere is more useful than adding famous cities very far from each other.
The major visits
An emblematic site can structure the stay. Access and time need to be checked before other discoveries that would make the day too busy or precipitated.
Your independence
A city stay is sometimes lived without a car. A rural or coastal area requires another organization, with nights placed near the discoveries and meals you want to keep easy.
Give the journey the right pace
A few days are suitable for a deep city and a close discovery. One week allows a regional route; a longer duration allows marked contrasts. Limiting unnecessary transitions enables a quieter tour, a meal or a real parentee on the edge of the water, without reducing the pleasure to a number of kilometers.
Extend without spreading too thin
Majorque and the other Spanish islands are destinations with their own character. To combine culture and relaxation, a coast close to the retened region can be more consistent than a remote island. We compare the access and time required before offering an extension to this first line of travel.
