When tomatoes fly and the country doesn’t flinch
Spain becomes a part of you even before you even realise your shoulders have dropped. You might arrive in Madrid with a list, but you’ll likely throw it out after your first café con leche. Our travel designers plan for that. The unplanned detours, the long lunches, the walks that end with a view you wouldn’t have found on your own, and ofcourse, La Tomatina, a festival that most travelers love to attend at least once in their lifetime.

Completely customisable for you
DAY
1-2
- Step into Madrid, where sunlit squares like Puerta del Sol hum with life and history. Wander through the Prado Museum’s halls, where Spanish masters’ brushstrokes endure, then trace the city’s heart: Plaza de España, Cervantes’ statue, Cibeles fountain, and the Royal Palace’s opulent chambers.
DAY
3-4
- Journey to Toledo, where Judaic, Christian, and Islamic threads weave through Santa Maria la Blanca’s arches and sword-forged history. By afternoon, Seville unfolds with its gothic cathedral, Alcázar’s intricate tiles, and the Guadalquivir’s gentle ripples, crowned by a fiery flamenco evening.
DAY
5-6
- Ascend to Ronda’s cliffside charm, strolling past Mondragon Palace and the storied bullring. Glide through Costa del Sol to Marbella’s Dalí-sculpted boulevard, then ride a burro-taxi in Mijas’ whitewashed lanes, ending in Málaga at Picasso’s birthplace museum.
DAY
7-8
- In Valencia, marvel at Oceanogràfic’s underwater tunnels and the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences. Then, in Buñol, dive into La Tomatina’s riotous tomato-throwing frenzy, where streets blush red under a tide of laughter and overripe fruit.
DAY
9-10
- Next, Barcelona dazzles with Sagrada Família’s soaring spires and Park Güell’s mosaic dreams. Ride a cable car to Montjuïc’s panoramic vistas, then visit Montserrat’s mountain monastery, its sacred statue rooted in legend, before a final stroll down vibrant La Rambla.
DAY
11
- Final hours are carried over espresso in Barcelona, with a last glance at its colorful streets, carrying memories of Spain’s art, history, and untamed joy.
A deeper look
Madrid lets you ease in
The city prefers understatement. Mornings begin in tiled cafés, afternoons drift through galleries, and evenings stretch out under the soft rumble of conversation. We know the sweet spots. A local bistro tucked behind the Prado. A rooftop that trades that takes your breath away.
Toledo remembers everything
Here, layers of history stack without ceremony. You’ll walk through streets where synagogues, mosques, and cathedrals lean gently into each other. There’s no plaque to tell you what it means. That’s why we work with hosts who live the stories rather than recite them. You ask questions. They pull out olive oil and pour you a drink.
Seville moves like it means it
There’s a weight to its beauty. Orange trees line shaded plazas, courtyards echo with guitar strings, and the Alcázar appears mid-step like something painted into the air. You don’t chase Seville, you sit with it. And we make sure you’re sitting in the right places.
Ronda stands its ground
Built on a cliff, as if daring gravity to speak, Ronda looks dramatic from a distance but feels soft when you arrive. There’s warmth in its cafés and pride in its plazas. A private guide here doesn’t walk you through it like a tour. They just point once in a while, and let you notice things on your own.
Marbella lets the sun do the work
Down by the coast, the pace flattens. You swim, you pause, you forget what time it is. This is where our planning pulls back. You don’t need an itinerary here, just a cool drink and a suggestion or two when you’re ready to move again.
Valencia before the splash
La Tomatina, ready or not
Barcelona offers a soft landing
Montserrat is the deep breath after it all
Unpacking in style
There’s something about stays that make you want to linger. With Footprint, you can stay at a London townhouse where the city runs just beyond your window. A lodge in the Scottish Highlands where the fireplace is always lit. A suite in New York where room service feels like a restaurant reservation. The right stay isn’t just where you rest— it’s where the experience begins.
