4 Nights on Wind Spirit
Cross two continents in four days, threading through three countries via one of the world's most storied straits. Trace the Strait of Gibraltar's ancient crossroads of empires, where Spain, Britain, and Morocco sit within sight of one another — best explored in the quieter seasons when the Mediterranean sun is warm but gentle and the medinas breathe easy without the summer rush. Wander Málaga's sun-bleached streets, birthplace of Picasso, before setting sail. Dock in Almería, where the Alcazaba, Andalusia's second-greatest Moorish fortress, crowns the hillside above the sea, or head inland to Granada, where the Alhambra's tiled courtyards and reflecting pools rival even that storied citadel. Watch for Barbary macaques scrambling the limestone face of the Rock of Gibraltar before making the short but remarkable crossing into Africa, two continents connected by a single strait, where Tangier's centuries of Berber, Arab, and European influence converge in a labyrinth of medina alleyways scented with mint tea and cumin.

Here, on the shores of Costa del Sol, the Andalusian spirit thrives.

Or you may choose to opt for a visit to the beautiful village of Mijas, where picturesque Andalusian country life creates some of the world's best wines.
Enjoy a walking tour of this ancient city. If you prefer, opt for a beautiful drive through the Andalusian countryside to Granada and the magnificent UNESCO site, the Alhambra Palace. Built in the 14th century, this breathtaking example of Moorish architecture combines intricate mosaics and stone-cast latticework in a tapestry of grace and sophistication unparalleled in western civilization. Or take an optional excursion into nature at one of three UNESCO Biosphere Reserves.
It's an odd bit of Britain here at the toe of Spain, with Barbary apes and miles of tunnels as well as traditional red phone boxes. Legend says Gibraltar was one of the two pillars erected by Hercules to mark the edge of the world. Take the cable car to the top to see if you can see it from here. No, that's not it. That's just Africa. What a view.
Fascinating Tangier is a traveler's delight with beautiful vistas, lovely unspoiled beaches, intriguing history and friendly people. Separated from Spain by only 20 miles across the Strait of Gibraltar, Tangier is considered by many to be the gateway to Africa. With its cosmopolitan mix of African and European influences, there are many interesting sites in Tangier. The two UNESCO sites of the Medina (the old-walled city) a bustling place, and the Kasbah which offers beautiful views and fine Moroccan art, and the Place de France in the heart of the new city is an entertaining place to sip mint tea and enjoy the view.
