Our Team in Spain
We don’t sell places we haven’t been. Our advisors have stood on Gaudí’s rooftops, wandered Park Güell and taken in Spain’s great views for themselves, so the advice you get comes from experience.



“Every hotel, guide and experience we recommend in Spain is one we’ve seen for ourselves, or one our trusted partners on the ground stand behind.”The Travel Byrds team

Need a reason to experience Spain?
Big cities, Moorish palaces, island coves and some of the best food in Europe, all in one country. Tap through to see what’s waiting for you.

Gaudí, the sea and the late-night buzz
Barcelona pairs world-class architecture with a Mediterranean beach. Gaudí’s Sagrada Família and Park Güell sit a short ride from the medieval lanes of the Gothic Quarter and the tapas bars of El Born.
Base yourself on Passeig de Gràcia or by the water, and add day trips to Montserrat, the Costa Brava or the cava cellars of the Penedès.
- Skip-the-line Sagrada Família with a private guide
- Modernista architecture on Passeig de Gràcia
- Cava, tapas and the Boqueria market

Royal palaces and world-class art
Spain’s capital is grand by day and lively by night. Tour the Royal Palace, then spend a morning with Velázquez and Goya at the Prado before an afternoon in Retiro Park.
Madrid is also the perfect hub for day trips to Toledo, Segovia and Salamanca, all an easy train ride away.
- The Prado, Reina Sofía and Thyssen museums
- Tapas crawls through La Latina
- Day trips to Toledo and Segovia

Moorish palaces and flamenco nights
Southern Spain is where the country’s most romantic images come from: the Alhambra in Granada, the Mezquita in Córdoba and the orange-scented streets of Seville.
Evenings mean flamenco, sherry and tapas, while the white villages and the Costa del Sol are never far away.
- Timed entry to the Alhambra’s Nasrid Palaces
- Private flamenco and sherry experiences
- Seville, Granada and Córdoba by train

Turquoise coves and island villas
The Balearic Islands each have their own personality. Mallorca has mountain villages and a soaring Gothic cathedral, Menorca is all quiet coves, and Ibiza pairs a UNESCO-listed old town with beach clubs.
They’re a short flight from Barcelona or Madrid, so it’s easy to end a city trip with a few days by the sea.
- Boutique hotels and private villas
- Yacht charters and hidden beaches
- Easy to pair with Barcelona

One of the world’s great food countries
From tapas bars and market halls to Michelin-starred tasting menus, Spain eats well and eats late: lunch around 2 pm and dinner from 9 pm.
We’ll book the tables that are hard to get, and add cooking classes, wine tastings in Rioja or the Penedès, and paella in its Valencian home.
- Private tapas tours with local guides
- Winery visits in Rioja, Ribera del Duero and the Penedès
- Paella and cooking classes
