Welcome to Spain

When you travel to Spain with Tauck, you'll feel the passion of this sun-blessed country come to life in every destination visited – a fiesta where everyone seems to be invited.

Madrid, spain, art, history and so much more in spain's extraordinary capital city, madrid.

Founded more that a millennium ago as a Muslim fortress town, Spain's capital city, Madrid, is a cosmopolitan metropolis known for its incredible art collections, inventive cuisine, and lively nightlife. Visiting the city with Tauck, you'll discover grand avenues such as Gran Via and Castellana, and El Parque del Buen Retiro; walk with a local guide through Plaza Mayor and the Mercado de San Miguel; enjoy a guided visit to the Royal Palace (Palacio de Oriente); and tour one of the greatest museums of them all – the Museo del Prado, which opened its doors in 1819, created by King Ferdinand VII to promote Spanish art and display the Royal Collection. Today, the Prado is home to one of the finest collections of European art anywhere, including works by Goya, Velázquez, El Greco, Bosch, Rubens, Titian and others… and with Tauck, you'll explore it all with an art expert.

Cordoba, Spain

Explore the moorish influences and multicultural heritage of córdoba.

It may have begun life as a Roman settlement, but the Spanish city of Córdoba – in the southern province of Andalucia – first reached greatness as a Muslim stronghold and the capital of a Caliphate, and many of its Moorish influences remain to the day. Reclaimed by the Christian world during the 13th-century Spanish Reconquista, Cordoba has long been known as a multicultural melting pot and a center of Spanish intellectual life. Discover it with Tauck on a walking tour through its Jewish Quarter and a guided visit to the 8th-century Mezquita de Córdoba (La Mezquita) – once one of the world's largest mosques, and now a Roman Catholic cathedral. More than 1,200 years old, it's an iconic symbol of the city and its multicultural heritage.

Pintxos tasting tours

Sampling pintxos in an sebastián.

Pintxos – the traditional tasty treats typically enjoyed as appetizers or snacks in bars throughout northern Spain and the Basque country – are so named for the "spike" (a skewer or a toothpick) that holds their ingredients to a slice of bread, and distinguishes them from their tapas cousins. You'll have opportunities to sample some of the best pintxos in town on a tasting tour with local experts San Sebastián.

"Traveling with Tauck was an incredible experience that truly exceeded our expectations. The hotels, food, wine, tour director and local guides were all terrific and we loved all the places we visited. You were right – San Sebastían was definitely a highlight of the trip! We were very fortunate to have sunny, comfortable weather and we really enjoyed meeting the people in our group and spending time with them. I felt so pampered and indulged and hope to go on another Tauck trip sometime in the near future. It was so nice to have everything taken care of for us and to really relax and enjoy our vacation" Celia G., Dunwoody, GA

See the Milky Way from a castle courtyard

When you are on holiday you probably like to go out for dinner at night and walk around a well-lit area, but have you tried turning off the light and looking at the sky? Have you ever seen the rings around Saturn through a telescope?

Over 80% of the world’s population is not able to enjoy the stars in all their splendor due to light pollution, but Spain is lucky enough to have some of the best places for astrotourism in the world. The range of emotions you will tap into with this experience will get you hooked. You will notice planets, double stars, and galaxies and feel like you can touch the Milky Way with your hands.

Why Spain ?

Our clear skies have preserved their natural darkness thanks to the lack of light pollution.

We have a high number of useful observation hours here.

Our great climate affords many nights with clear skies.

A lot of the areas from which the stars can be observed are protected natural areas, such as nature reserves, that are sure to enchant visitors.

In addition to these magnificent installations, there are country house lodges and small hotels in Spain that specialize in stargazing. These usually have planispheres or star charts, educational materials, and a telescope.

Can you imagine seeing the Milky Way from a castle courtyard?

Star-Studded Areas

Here are some of the best places in spain for astrotourism:.

The Sierra Sur district in Andalusia in southern Spain includes the mountain range of Sierra Sur de  Jaén . Also located in  Andalusia are Sierra Morena mountains. Where you will find a marvelous network of stargazing vantage points and accommodation.

In Lleida in Catalonia is Montsec , a Starlight Tourist Destination located in the foothills of the Pyrenees. In the Roncal valley of Navarre, in the heart of the Pyrenees, you can be sure of dark skies for stargazing.

Sierras de Gúdar-Javalamabre, in Teruel, Aragon, in summer, holds night photography workshops, astronomy workshops, sunset viewings and explanations, and more. The province of Ávila, part of Castile and León, features Gredos Norte. Further south in Cáceres, Extremadura is Monfragüe , which is also a very important bird-watching location in Spain.

In Tenerife,  the Teide National Park, certain mountain peaks, and the town of Granadilla de Abona all hold the Starlight certification. Known as the “beautiful island”, La Palma is the most rugged of the Canary Islands and the one with the clearest sky. Gran Canaria protects its skies from light pollution and offers plenty of viewing points.

You can enjoy star parks in other parts of Spain! For more information, please visit The best places in Spain for stargazing .
