Bespoke Tours of Andalucía, built around you
No fixed itinerary. No group compromises.
Each journey TOMA & COE designs starts with a conversation about what you want, and ends with an experience shaped entirely around your interests, your pace, and your idea of the perfect trip to southern Spain.
Why travellers choose tailored, bespoke tours
What we mean by bespoke
A tour built from nothing, for you
The word bespoke is used loosely in travel. At TOMA & COE it has a specific meaning, we do not take a pre-existing itinerary and put your name on it (unless you really want us to. We start with a blank page.
Most of our clients have a clear sense of what they want: the Alhambra at dawn, a private sherry tasting with a third-generation bodeguero, three days in Cádiz that no guidebook covers; but they don’t have the local knowledge to build it themselves. Some come to us with a single idea and ask us to build around it. Some want to revisit Andalucía with a completely different lens from last time.
What the conversations always have in common is that the traveller has thought about what matters to them. Our job is to translate that into a coherent, deeply informed journey that delivers it. We are not a booking platform. We are a team that has spent years building the relationships, the knowledge, and the access that make private, individual travel in Andalucía genuinely different from anything you could arrange yourself.
The Process
From first conversation to final day
Designing a custom tour is a collaborative process. It typically unfolds in four stages, and at every point the itinerary remains yours to shape.
What we build
Some of the themes our bespoke tours explore
Most bespoke itineraries draw on more than one theme. A cultural tour of Córdoba naturally involves gastronomy. A wine journey through the Sherry Triangle usually moves through some of Andalucía’s most significant history.
History & Civilisation
Andalucía’s history moves across three thousand years and several civilisations. Our specialist guides work at the level of primary scholarship. For example, they can take you inside the Mezquita–Catedral in Córdoba and explain layers of history that most tours never reach.
Moorish Andalucía · Roman Hispania · The Reconquista · Sephardic heritage · Habsburg Spain
Gastronomy & Wine
Southern Spain has one of the most distinctive food cultures in Europe, rooted in the same Moorish, Jewish, and Roman inheritances as its architecture. We build itineraries around producers, chefs, market traditions, and wine regions that operate outside the tourist circuit.
Sherry bodegas · Olive oil estates · Tapas culture · Cádiz seafood · Ibérico farms
Arts & Architecture
From the Alhambra’s geometric precision to the Baroque excess of Seville’s cathedral, Andalucía is an open museum. We design journeys for travellers who want to look closely and have someone beside them who can explain what they’re seeing.
Islamic architecture · Mudéjar · Velázquez & Zurbarán · Picasso · Contemporary Málaga
Flamenco & Living Culture
Flamenco is not a show. It is a living art form rooted in Andalucían Roma, Moorish, and Jewish musical traditions. We arrange access to intimate performances, artist conversations, and the flamenco communities that keep the form alive.
Seville’s Triana quarter · Jerez de la Frontera · Granada’s Sacromonte
Landscape & Walking
Andalucía is the most ecologically diverse region in Western Europe. We design walking itineraries through the Serranía de Ronda, the Sierra Nevada approaches, the white villages of the Grazalema Natural Park, and the Atlantic coastline of Cádiz province.
Serranía de Ronda · White Villages route · Sierra Nevada foothills · Cabo de Gata
Family & Multi-Generational
We design tours that work for mixed groups: curious adults and children who need to be engaged, not talked at. Spanish history, science, food, and landscape all offer rich material for families travelling together. We calibrate pace and content accordingly.
Smaller cities · Hands-on cooking · Moorish science & maths · Active days
What a bespoke tour includes
We handle every element
A bespoke TOMA & COE tour is a complete, managed travel experience, not a guide service bolted onto DIY logistics. Everything below is arranged by us, to a standard we have tested ourselves.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is a bespoke tour different from a private tour?
Do I need to have a detailed idea of what I want before I contact you?
No. Some clients arrive with a very specific vision, a particular itinerary, a list of places, a theme they’ve been researching for years. Others arrive with a feeling: “we want to understand Moorish Spain properly” or “we’d like a slow week in Andalucía focused on food.” Both are equally good starting points. Our job is to turn either into a coherent, well-informed journey. The initial conversation is exploratory, not a form to complete.
What is the minimum and maximum duration of a bespoke tour?
We design bespoke experiences from a single day upwards. A one-day private itinerary in Seville or Granada, built around your specific interests, is as much a bespoke product as a ten-day journey across the region. For most clients visiting Andalucía for the first time and wanting to cover several cities, five to eight days is the most common range. Multi-week itineraries that extend beyond Andalucía are also something we can design.
How far in advance should I enquire?
For travel during peak season, we recommend enquiring at least four months ahead. Alhambra Nasrid Palace tickets in particular can sell out months in advance and cannot always be booked at short notice. For travel outside peak periods, we can often turn around a well-built itinerary quicker. If you’re travelling soon and have specific requirements, it’s always worth contacting us — we will tell you honestly what is and isn’t achievable.
Do you arrange accommodation as part of a bespoke tour?
We provide detailed accommodation recommendations matched to your preferences and budget as part of the itinerary-building process. We can book on your behalf or guide you through making your own reservations — whichever you prefer. We have strong relationships with a range of properties across Andalucía, from boutique city hotels in historic buildings to rural estates, and we recommend only places we know well.
Can you design a tour for a large group or a special occasion?
Yes. We design bespoke tours for couples, families, small private groups, and larger parties travelling together for milestone celebrations, anniversaries, or significant birthdays. Larger groups require earlier planning and may involve coordinating multiple guides or vehicles, but the process is the same: we build an itinerary around what the group wants, not around what is easiest to deliver. For corporate groups and incentive travel, please see our Incentives and DMC pages.
Are your guides licensed?
Yes. All TOMA & COE guides hold official Spanish regional guide licences and have been selected by us for their specialist knowledge and the quality of their communication. Many have academic or professional backgrounds in the fields — history, art history, gastronomy, architecture — that their tours cover.
