Then we will travel by private bus through Zaragoza, to the capital of Madrid, where we will experience the royal palace and eat tapas. From Madrid we will take a high speed train to the south, visiting the Mezquita in Córdoba and staying for two nights in Sevilla. Departing from Granada, we will board a ferry for a day excursion to Tétouan, Morocco. After a final evening in the Costa del Sol area, we will visit Italica, an ancient Roman city, on our way to Lisbon, Portugal. We will see the best of Lisbon and enjoy a Fado evening performance.
