Spain

Spain, home of the good life. Spaniards have a reputation for enjoying themselves, even when they are asleep. Siesta meets fiesta in this country only 13 kilometres from Africa, brimming with history, culture, nature and gastronomy and a palpable love of life. Diversity is its hallmark, but everything fits in a land full of surprises, traditions and passion.

Cathedrals and mosques, castles and palaces, volcanoes and deserts, paradisiacal islands and lost monasteries, Goya and Picasso. For eight centuries Spain was under Arab rule and it subsequently embarked on a daring adventure that was to change the world: the discovery of America. It is the importance of its history, its passion for adventure and its geographical uniqueness that make this country so enchanting. Each region is very different offering a unique variety of cultures, landscape and gastronomy in an overall area that can be comfortably covered by car. Madrid attracts art lovers from all over the world. Barcelona is famous for its modernist architecture. Andalusia bewitches with the magic of flamenco, and the charm of Seville, Granada and Cordoba. The Basque Country draws the most demanding palates while lovers of the Mediterranean good life chill in fascinating Majorca, anchoring in its secluded coves and bathing in its turquoise waters. And for night owls, there is Ibiza. Infinite Spain.
