What people love about touring Southern Spain solo
- Andalucia & Toledo, 5 days on Tuesdays
Really great tour, beautiful places and tour guide was great, made some lovely friends along the way
- Madrid and Andalusia
I would add one additional day in Granada.
This was an amazing tour and exactly what we were looking for. The balance of free time and planned activities was what we found to be most appealing. The ease of having all accommodations and travel between cities taken care of was spectacular. Our guide, Magda, was stellar! She went above and beyond every single day, and we could not have asked for a better experience with her.

What our customers ask about Southern Spain Tours for Solo Travelers
What's the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Southern Spain?
Spring (March-May) and fall (September-October) offer the most comfortable conditions for exploring Southern Spain on your own.

Single supplements range from 210-450 USD based on the tour type and hotel category.
