For stunning sightseeing, Andalucia is second to none. Its cultural diversity and historic riches are evident at every turn, and one of the most relaxing ways to marvel at these incredible sights is by boat - sitting back in comfort and enjoying the scenery as it glides peacefully past. On this tour, each boat we travel on tells a different story, presenting the true flavour of Andalucia to you on a plate.

Day 3 - Sanlúcar de Barrameda
We start the day with a guided tour of Sanlúcar de Barrameda, situated at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River. As well as being known for its stunning beaches, the town showcases ancient churches and breathtaking historic landmarks like the Castillo de Santiago. There’ll be free time in the town - perhaps indulge in one of the many traditional seafood dishes that the province is famous for, before embarking on a relaxing trip on a traditional barge to Doñana National Park. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and one of Europe’s largest nature reserves, Doñana is home to a unique ecosystem of sand dunes, marshlands and forests. Its proximity to the meeting point between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean seas makes it the perfect breeding ground for an incredible variety of wildlife - keep your eyes peeled for a Spanish imperial eagle. After some free time to discover the park, we’ll return to our hotel.

In the afternoon we’ll get to experience it from a whole new angle as we take a boat trip on the Guadalquivir, where we’ll continue to be amazed by these breathtaking sights.
