Spain is famous for its friendly inhabitants, relaxed lifestyle, its cuisine, vibrant nightlife, and world-famous folklore and festivities, and its history as the core of the vast Spanish Empire. The most popular beaches are the ones along the Mediterranean coast and on the Canary Islands. Meanwhile, for hiking, the mountains of Sierra Nevada in the south, the Central Cordillera and the northern Pyrenees are the best places. Historically, Spain has been an important crossroads: between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic, between North Africa and Europe, and as Europe began colonizing the New World, between Europe and the Americas. As such, the country is blessed with a fantastic collection of historical landmarks. The Spanish are very passionate about their cuisine, based on great food and wine. Spanish food can be described as quite light with a lot of vegetables and a huge variety of meat and fish.

What we stand for

Don't just travel the world, live it.

Oak and beech forests situated at high altitudes give way to olive trees as one travels towards the plains and hills of the north. Small villages perched high in the mountains, seemingly outside of time, are ideal rest spots for visitors who wish to visit its hidden corners. Lastly, the historical legacy of La Rioja is far from insignificant: the zone is host to a number of monasteries classed as world heritage sites, including one known for having been the home of the first poet in history to write in the Castilian language.
