Madrid to Seville
Madrid & Aranjuez — Royal Welcome
Embark in Madrid and meet the crew. The day's excursion visits the Royal Palace and gardens of Aranjuez, the spring residence of the Spanish kings, before a welcome dinner aboard. Overnight on the train.
Toledo — City of Three Cultures
A short transfer reaches Toledo, the former capital above the Tagus where Christian, Jewish and Muslim Spain met — its cathedral, synagogues, mosque and the art of El Greco within a UNESCO old town.
Cáceres — Stone Towers & Noble Palaces
The train approaches Cáceres, whose walled old town — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is a maze of palaces, noble towers and storks' nests in golden stone, unchanged for centuries.
Mérida — Roman Theatres & Imperial Echoes
A day devoted to Mérida, founded as Emerita Augusta in 25 BC — the great Roman theatre and amphitheatre, the forum and the longest Roman bridge in the world, the finest Roman ensemble in Spain.
Jerez & Cádiz — Horses, Sherry & Atlantic Light
Into Andalusia: a performance at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art in Jerez de la Frontera and a sherry tasting, then Cádiz — the oldest city in the West, washed by the Atlantic on three sides.
Córdoba — Arches, Patios & the Mosque-Cathedral
Córdoba, once the capital of Islamic Spain, and its legendary Mezquita-Catedral — a forest of red-and-white arches — with the whitewashed Jewish Quarter, flower-filled patios and the Roman bridge.
Arrival in Seville — A Grand Finale
On the last morning the train glides into Seville, where the journey ends amid the Cathedral and Giralda, the Real Alcázar and the orange-scented lanes of the Andalusian capital.
