Oosterdam

Enjoy a get-acquainted tour that introduces the highlights of Barcelona. Your guide will point out many landmarks. At the 13th-century Cathedral of the Holy Cross & Saint Eulalia, located in the Gothic Quarter, you'll step inside to admire the interior.

This bike ride offers a different way to discover Barcelona's squares, monuments, beaches and people, in a city that has more than 60 miles of bicycle lanes and an extensive pedestrian-only Old Town

Head to the famous promenade of La Rambla to visit the La Boqueria and Santa Caterina markets. The original Boqueria building plan dates back to 1217, when the main selling activity was a street market for meat, vegetables and fruits. You can still see the original building, with its metal roof, built by Mas Vilà in the city's popular Modernist style. Today's structure was officially inaugurated in 1853.

Visitors to Barcelona discover a city of charming streetscapes, sidewalk cafés and squares bustling with people. It is full of life. This amazing city also features the world's largest collection of Modernist architecture among its many buildings and churches.

An exciting performance of Spanish Flamenco dance showcases an artform that originated in Andalusia and is comprised of three elements -- the song (el cante), the dance (el baile) and the guitar (el toque). Among the gypsies of Andalusia it was used as an expression of poverty, oppression and personal grief. Over time, Flamenco has also become a means of expressing happiness as it incorporates elements of Spanish music in lighter forms (alegrias, bulerias, fandangos).

Barcelona's modernist architecture, conceived and executed by architect Antonio Gaudí, has ensured Barcelona's place in the world today, on the map, and heading in the future. This tour offers an insight view to the modernism as its best.

Ride by coach to the Montserrat Mountain Ridge, six miles long, three miles wide and 4,050 feet tall. The irregular peaks of Catalonia's most famous mountain are visible from miles around. Montserrat is a cultural, religious and natural landmark. Legend says that shepherds found a statue of a black Virgin Mary on Montserrat. When they tried to move her, the cart got stuck, which they took as a sign to she should stay on the mountain. So this peculiar mountain range is now the site of the monastery where people come to worship La Moreneta -- the black Madonna who is the patron-virgin of Catalonia.

Abandoned 40 years ago, the Agrupa Vicenta mine was recently opened to the public to showcase the importance of mining to the region. The mine spreads over almost 52,000 square feet and descends to a depth of up to 263 feet beneath the surface. You will reach the entrance of the mine by trolley train.

A panoramic drive of 1½ to 1¾ hours brings you to Caravaca. Stroll the ancient streets of the city and walk uphill to the fortress, which seems to materialize right in front of you. Muslim in origin, the castle was extended by the Knights Templar and the Santiago Order.

The Center of Cartagena History is situated in the Tower of Homage -- one of the few buildings that remain from the Castle of Conception. Here, modern technology paints a vivid picture as you journey through the different civilizations that have thrived here. Take in panoramic views over the city and over the site of the Roman theatre, discovered by chance in 1897.

Discover the highlights of Cartagena, originally settled in 223 BC. The city has flourished under Roman, Muslim and Arab rule, and today offers a vast cultural legacy.

Tejeda and Almijara jointly constitute an impressive mountain range -- a geographical barrier between the provinces of Malaga and Granada. Tejeda forms the backbone of the region known as Axarquía (the East) and is a bastion of Mudéjar Arab culture; Almijara derives its name from the Arabic word for colander, possibly referring to the speed with which rainwater drains from its lofty heights.

Travel 1¼ hours by coach to reach the Caminito del Rey -- a trail that crosses the beautiful Gaitanes Ravine and was once called 'one of the world's scariest hiking routes'. Those who historically had the courage to do it anyway were rewarded with amazing views over astonishing landscapes. Originally a supply path for the construction of the railway and a hydroelectric power station, the path, more than 100 years old, fell into disrepair over the course of decades. The path is named after King Alfonso XIII, who walked part of the way to mark the inauguration of the hydroelectric power plant and the reservoir. Now, a comprehensive rebuild has placed it firmly on the map and on many a bucket list. It is now manageable for many people and its bridges, paths and small tunnels comply with more modern codes. About two thirds of the trail is through the valley, with gorges at both ends.

The Albaycin is a truly attractive part of Granada that is often overlooked by visitors. This quarter is one of the oldest settlements in Andalusia and is home to the very famous Alhambra and to the Realejo Jewish neighborhood. It is the flat part of an otherwise hilly city, and was once protected by a city wall.

A one-hour drive brings you to Nerja. Listen to a safety briefing; then, hop into your kayak and follow your guide to the Maro-Cerro Gordo Cliffs, where seabirds make their vertical homes on the steep cliffsides. As you paddle, you will see small caves, waterfalls, and nooks and crannies that can only be appreciated from a small craft. The kayaking takes around two hours and includes a stop for snorkel and swimming. Snorkel gear is provided so that, if you wish, you can enjoy the cooling waters of the Mediterranean. Your guide will provide basic snorkel instruction. If snorkeling isn't your thing, feel free to just swim and bask in the sunshine.

A motor coach drive brings you directly to the picturesque village of Mijas, also known as 'the white town.' Mijas is a typical Spanish village with a strong Andalusian flavor, and offers incredible views over the coastline. All the houses in Mijas are painted white, in the classic tradition of southern Spain. The layout of the streets was planned hundreds of years ago to protect the houses and their inhabitants from the strong winds typical of the area.

Discover Málaga's rich archaeological remains and fascinating monuments on this panoramic drive past its marvelous landmarks. Ancient history is alive and well in this busy center of the Costa del Sol, and civilizations old and older have left remnants for you to admire and ponder.

Chef Jean-Pierre Brehier is a Fort Lauderdale legend and a frequent guest on the Today show. He hosted Fearless Entertaining with Jean-Pierre and Sunshine Cuisine on PBS and is the author of two best-selling cookbooks.
