This itinerary we present here holds a special place in our hearts.

Almost fifteen years ago Angie and I drove in Spain and Portugal for the first time; a few years later we returned on the occasion of celebrating our wedding anniversary there with friends. 

Both times we came as tourists with no thought of ever developing an On the Road itinerary in these lands.

Over the years, Spain and Portugal have been suggested repeatedly as possible destinations for us. 

Last year we resolved, at last, to design our first Iberian Peninsula itinerary and to focus on Andalusia in Spain, and the Algarve in Portugal – from the Mediterranean Sea right to the Atlantic Ocean.

What we have found during the last nine months has been overwhelming. 

  • rarely have I driven on such beautiful roads with so few cars
  • the variety and freshness of the food we have enjoyed there still lingers enticingly on the palate
  • the culture and history we uncovered moved us, again and again; 
  • the people we met touched us; 
  • and the hotels, some in remote locations, we stayed in were a sheer delight.

We can’t wait to share with you what we’ve come to love ourselves so much. Please open the Journey Dossier to see what we have in store for you – a journey where we hope every day will be filled with excited anticipation and unforgettable memories…
