5 Day Self-Guided Motorcycle Tour Through the Best of Andalusia
Seville, Spain
Self-Guided Motorcycle Tour in Spain
Andalusia is, without a doubt, one of the best destinations for a motorcycle tour in Europe. This road trip has everything: ancient sites, grand arid scenery, terrific regional food, and the characteristic music of the region - flamenco. There is almost too much to see: the hilltop - Pueblo Blanco (white town) - Ronda, with its handsome bullring and spectacular bridge over the gorge that famously separates the two halves of the community; Seville, with its 16th-Century Gothic cathedral together with the surviving Islamic minaret, the Giralda, and also the Alcázar, a 14th-century Moorish palace; Córdoba, with its unique Mesquita, and finally the Alhambra in Granada - the extraordinary 14th-century Moorish palace and gardens. As well as all this, the road itself is spectacular. The route winds into the hills towards Ronda and on to Seville, the dusty semi-desert scenery remains beautiful and unforgettable, as well as some sections of Mediterranean Coast roads.
