Default Re: Traveling with my mother and daughter

Hi again,

April month is Easter time festive season in Spain so book your accommodation well in advance as things get fully booked very quickly and it is also a fairly busy time in Spain.

Granada is actually not far from Madrid. It is around 4 hours driving time from Madrid to Granada and only 30 minutes if you choose a flight.

My suggested itinerary:

Day 1-2: Seville

Seville is one of the most popular destinations in Spain. It is the spiritual home of both “flamenco” and “bullfighting” and it has some of the most beautiful gardens and buildings in all of Spain. It is also famous for the Cathedral and “Giralda tower”, the “Alcazar”, and the “Plaza de España”.

Seville has an airport, as well as in nearby Granada and it is only two-and-a-half hours by train from Madrid.

Day 3-4: Cadiz

Cadiz is in the south coast of Spain. It is a beautiful old city that is well worth a visit. Driving time from Seville is around 1 hour.

When you are in Cadiz, things to see are the Cathedral, the Torre Tavira, Caleta beach.

Day 5-6: Malaga

Malaga is a lively city and it is Picasso's birthplace. Things to see are the “Museo Picasso”, and the “Alcazaba”, which once belonged to the old Muslim rulers.
It is around 2 hours driving from Cadiz.

Day 7-8: Granada

The last stop in your itinerary and probably the most exciting as you will get a chance to visit “the Alhambra” in Spain which is the best conserved Arabian palace of its epoch.

Also, you might want to try the famous free tapas, drink Moroccan tea and have a smoke of fruit-flavored tobacco in the “El Albaicin” Moorish quarter and watch flamenco in the “Sacromonte” gypsy quarter.

Hope this helps
