| Description |
Your adventure starts in Barcelona, one of Spain’s hottest spots for partying and authentic Spanish bars and clubs. The highlight will be the Barcelona Night Tour where we’ll take you to Mirabeau, a bar boasting panoramic views over the city from the Tibidabo mountain. Next, you’ll head to Valencia, with its beautiful old town dotted with countless tiny watering holes to keep you hydrated. And get ready for the La Tomatina festival in Buñol, just a short trip from Valencia. You’ll be joining 20,000 others in the world’s biggest food fight, pelting everyone from friends to random strangers with tomatoes. Ready for the greatest party island in the world? It’s Ibiza time! You will feel like a rock-star with VIP bar and club entry and you’ll be dancing and partying until the sun comes up. And to end it on a high, a dinner reservation at the famous Mint Lounge will have you feasting to an incredible Mediterranean sunset. |
Walk around elegant boulevards of Madrid, see Prado Museum’s works by Goya, Velázquez and other Spanish masters, be treated to a lively flamenco performance in Seville, explore the red fortress of the Alhambra and witness Gaudí’s Barcelona with your own eyes. |
Day 1, 2 & 3: Barcelona

Day 4, 5 & 6: Valencia & Buñol
In Valencia, nightlife really means “in the night time”. Adjust your timetable to the Spanish way of life, take into account that shops stay open until 9-pm, locals have their dinner long after 10-pm and most pubs don’t start filling up until midnight.

Day 7, 8 & 9: Ibiza
Considered the world’s party capital, Ibiza is the Mediterranean equivalent of Rio. While it attracts a high amount of young people for its famous clubs, if also offers a smorgasbord of other nightlife options for those not interested in the club scene – countless bars and pubs catering for every taste line the beaches and the streets.
The island also boasts one of the best and most famous sunsets in the world, which you’ll enjoy from a beach-front restaurant during our dinner reservation there.
