No architect has shaped a city quite like Gaudí shaped Barcelona. APT's Spain and Portugal tours include a Signature Experience inside Casa Vicens, his very first commissioned house. You’ll also experience a guided tour of the Sagrada Família with free hours to wander the Gothic Quarter or sip wine on Passeig de Gràcia.

Spain and Portugal tours in Spain’s south visit Granada's Alhambra – a fortified Nasrid palace complex of carved stucco and reflecting pools – alongside Córdoba's Mezquita, where double-tiered red-and-white arches stretch in seemingly endless rows beneath the Christian cathedral grafted into the centre.

Few regions tell their story through food the way Iberia does. APT's Spain and Portugal tours serve up a flamenco-and-tapas evening in a Granada cave, lunch among the vines in the Douro Valley, and port tastings at the lodges where they've matured for decades. Locally inspired menus aboard the MS Estrela add to the regional flavour.

The Douro Valley is best seen from the water, in the luxury of APT's purpose-built river ship. Across seven nights you'll glide between vine-clad banks dotted with quintas and chapels, with onboard dining that draws on regional Portuguese cooking. It's a centrepiece of a Spain and Portugal holiday package.

Lisbon and Porto are deservedly famous, but you’ll be charmed by Portugal's quieter cities. Spain and Portugal holiday packages with APT include Coimbra's medieval university, Sintra's misty palaces, the riverside villages of the Douro, with a private fado performance inside Porto's lavish Palácio da Bolsa providing one of the most atmospheric Signature Experiences in the entire APT collection.

On APT’s Spain and Portugal tours, you’ll explore two proudly distinct nations. Spain unfolds dramatically in flamenco, paella and grand plazas; Portugal whispers in fado, port wine and Atlantic seafood. Travelling between them is a study in contrasts, with the Portuguese–Spanish border itself just the hint of a crossing.
