    Overview

    Activity holidays in Spain are a unique way to experience a holiday destination staple. Getting off-the-beaten-track in Spain is such a rewarding way to travel responsibly to one of the worst affected places for mass tourism. Our holiday itineraries will take you away from the tourism hotspots, or allow you to experience those places in a truly unique way. We want our guests to have a once-in-a-lifetime experience that respects the locals too.

    Whilst Spain’s beaches and sea view tapas bars are a well-trodden path for holidaymakers, travellers seeking out authentic Spanish life will be pleased to discover activity holidays in Spain and original Spanish experiences that will create memories to last a lifetime. On your Spanish adventure this year, add horse riding, pottery making or surfing into your itinerary alongside the usual sunbathing and sangria-drinking.

    Our unique experiences and activity holidays in Spain will provide you with the best combination of culture and fun that the country has to offer. Explore the Spain that lies off the beaten path and you’ll soon find enriching experiences that help to create an unforgettable trip.

    What our travellers are saying...

    I don't think anyone could come on this holiday and be disappointed, both Karen and Kathryn where fantastic hosts, with great enthusiasm, knowledge and took really good care of us to make it a memorable experience. The food was fantastic and really appreciate the hard work and planning that has to gone into organising this, with external teachers as well.

    Hannah P

    This was just the kick-start back into fitness that I needed. From the word 'go' it was challenging and enjoyable, either in the woods, on the beach or just in the garden. We learnt about bush-living and nutrition also. Casper is a great instructor and very motivational!

    R Bradbury, UK

    Great holiday, very well organised, perfect to challenge yourself and to try to go beyond your limits. Would definitely recommend.

    G Pozzi, UK

    Unspoiled beautiful location, delicious healthy fresh food provided by a great trainer, who has taken me to the next level of how to improve my fitness over all.
