Spain is one of the most popular destinations in Europe for people to visit. Spain offer multiples of cultural experiences, visiting Spain is discover a country that has spectacular beaches, mountains, it also offers a big cultural options to see and we don´t have to forget it’s gastronomy and wide variety of activities and trips for groups wishing to visit Spain.

“El Camino de Santiago” was the most important religious and cultural route in Europe during the Middle Ages. It is the only route in the world to be designated World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Along the way churches, monasteries, refuges and hostels were built in distinctive Romanesque style as a support infrastructure for the many thousands of pilgrims who made their way from all over Europe on the long and difficult journey to the tomb of St. James the Apostle in Santiago de Compostela.
On our version of the Pilgrim Road there is a broad selection of different sights and experiences which are not necessarily associated with the religious origins of the pilgrimage. We experience not only beautiful and varied countryside along the Way but also bustling towns and cities. We come across many great architectural styles including Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Art Nouveau, culminating in the absolutely spectacular modern Guggenheim Museum, now the emblematic building of the city of Bilbao.
We also get to visit to a winery in La Rioja, the most famous wine area in the whole of Spain. We are given a tour of the installations, explanations of the whole process and, of course, opportunities for wine-tasting.
This journey passes through four distinct Spanish autonomous regions which in the past were different countries, with very different cultural backgrounds still evident in their different language, traditions and gastronomy.
