Seville has a unique charm, this vibrant city is filled with enchanting traditional architecture in hues of lemons, plums, and oranges. The Guadalquivir River flows roughly from north to south through Seville. The majority of the city, including the historic district of Barrio de Santa Cruz, is located on the east bank, while the Barrio de Triana is situated on the west bank. At midnight, spontaneous singing, clapping, and guitar playing fill the bars and streets. During the day, the city's diverse heritage becomes evident. The Romans, Moors, Catholic Spaniards, and now, throngs of tourists have all attempted to claim Seville as their own. Indeed, Seville has always managed to ignite the imagination of newcomers. From the outside, the cathedral may not seem impressive; you must enter to truly grasp its size. Huge pillars support the vaulted ceiling, and the abundance of treasure is unbelievably magnificent. Another major attraction of the city is La Giralda, which was the minaret of the Almohad mosque. From the top, there's a spectacular view of the city across the spiked spires and buttresses of the roof. La Torre del Oro, a symbol of the city, originally covered in golden tiles, has been standing guard over the town since 1220. Seville at night is magical, everything takes on a mystical aura that can mesmerize and if you know how to experience it, you will be captivated by its charm.

Day 4-5

lisbon, portugal

Arrival: 09:00 - Departure: 18:00

Lisbon is recognized as the city of seven hills due to its geographical position, with the city sprawling across steep hillsides that overlook the Rio Tajo. The city, both romantic and cosmopolitan, showcases its characteristic red rooftops to visitors eager to explore every corner. Lisbon astonishes with its natural beauty and laid-back ambiance. The capital of Portugal boasts numerous museums, libraries, a vast port, churches, palaces, and breathtaking views of the Rio Tajo. Once considered a poor and chaotic city, Lisbon has undergone a revival reminiscent of the 14th and 15th centuries when it was part of a vast empire stretching from Brazil to India. This resurgence was sparked by the World Expo held in 1998, which led to the construction of a new bridge over the Tagus and the remodeling of the city's subway system. The city's revival continued when it hosted several matches during the 2004 Euro and the MTV Delivery Music Awards in 2005. Many of its most beautiful buildings date back to the 14th and 15th centuries, particularly those in the Belem district. There are also many 18th-century buildings, primarily located in the Baixa area of central Lisbon, which were almost entirely rebuilt after a devastating earthquake struck the city in 1755. The city's historic center, situated on Las Siete Colinas, features steep streets and charming alleys. On the city's west side is Monsanto Forest Park, known as Lisbon's lung, which spans 10 km and is one of the largest in Europe. The capital's impressive port has three docks frequently used for various cruises and is currently the busiest port on the European Atlantic coast. Lisbon is a city with centuries of history and an ambitious outlook, blending the historical with the modern, the traditional with the avant-garde. As you wander through the old quarters, you can hear the traditional Fado music being sung and played in small local restaurants. In the hilltop district of Bairro Alto, dozens of restaurants and bars line the narrow streets, with the sounds of jazz, reggae, and electronica filling the air and party-goers celebrating until dawn. Nightclubs scattered throughout the city creatively utilize old spaces, whether on riverside docks or tucked away in 18th-century mansions. Lisbon presents itself to the world as a cosmopolitan and vibrant city, offering something for everyone, especially during the summer months when its many bars, terraces, and restaurants are bustling with people.

oporto

Arrival: 08:00 - Departure: 19:00

Located in a striking valley carved by the Douro River, Porto is renowned for its beautiful architecture and the sweet flavor of its wine. The city's focal point is Avenida dos Aliados, a broad avenue surrounded by Praça General H. Delgado and Praça da Liberdade. However, the most captivating part of the city is Ribeira, the river district and a Unesco World Heritage Site, where three of Europe's most elegant bridges cross the gorge. The bustling Praça da Liberdade and the adjacent Avenida dos Aliados form the city center, where statues are positioned in the middle of busy mosaic pathways. Nearby stands Porto's magnificent cathedral, a massive, fortified Romanesque building with heavy granite foundations, thick walls, and small windows that enclose a dark interior. The Ribeira extends along the river, bordered by a fantastic quay filled with shops and restaurants. Porto's most iconic monument, the ornate Torre dos Clérigos, provides a citywide view from the top of its 240 steps. A trip to Porto wouldn't be complete without a stop at some of the many bodegas, or wine lodges, where port is stored and bottled. A visit to the incredible Lello library, with its spiral staircase, is also a must-see, even if you're not a Harry Potter fan.

Day 8

tangier, morocco

Arrival: 08:00 - Departure: 18:00

Tangier is the junction where Europe and Africa meet; where the Atlantic merges into the Mediterranean and where Islam and Christendom intersect. Known as the gateway to Africa, Tangier gazes at Europe from both the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts. At this significant intersection of civilizations, Tangier boasts a stunning, picturesque bay nestled beneath its verdant hills and ancient streets. As a hub for trade and commerce to various destinations, Tangier's history has left an indelible mark, with its sovereignty often contested. As any local will tell you, the Medina, or old town, is the most fascinating sight in Tangier. The medina of Tangier is a labyrinth of narrow streets perched on the hill above the harbor. Rue es-Siaghin descends from the Grand Socco to the Petit Socco, with side streets to the right brimming with shops. The main street of the medina leads to the Kasbah, the former Sultan's palace and the highest point in the medina. It offers breathtaking views of the ocean and the city. The gate opens onto a large courtyard, leading to the Dar el-Makhzem Palace and the contemporary Kasbah Museum. The palace, built in the 17th century and expanded by each successive sultan, features intricately carved wooden ceilings and a marble courtyard, showcasing the finesse of Moroccan craftsmanship. Tangier's Ville Nouvelle is a must-visit for admirers of late 19th and early 20th century architecture, boasting numerous exquisite buildings from this era. Here, you'll find the Terrasse des Paresseux, offering a spectacular ocean view that has enchanted countless European artists. With the harbor in front of you, gaze across the water to see the faint outlines of Gibraltar and southern Spain in the distance. Tangier elicits strong reactions; you either love it or hate it, with no middle ground. You may vow never to return, or you may find yourself drawn to it. But if you stay and adapt to its rhythm, you'll likely fall in love with its beauty. One thing is certain, though: Tangier is one of the most vibrant cities in Morocco.
