Andalusía is quintessential Spain featuring a diverse landscape of craggy mountains and rolling hills decorated with olive groves, vineyards, and hilltop castles. By day, white-washed villages gleam under the warm golden sun, while by night they sparkle with vitality as cafes, wine bodegas and tapas bars come to life. Andalucía is home to some of Europe’s finest architectural achievements. Seville’s medieval cathedral, Cordoba’s 11th century “Mesquita”, and Granada’s Alhambra Palace are all UNESCO World Heritage sites. Join us as we explore this beautiful and historically rich region by scooter, weaving our way through the region's famous “Pueblos Blancos” to arrive in the evening at a lovely hotel to then relax and enjoy Spain’s legendary night life.

Scooterbella in the news: our tours have been featured in the travel section of The Guardian (UK), Jan 20th, 2007. Another article was published by The Observer on April 23rd, 2006. Our Tuscany scooter trip was also featured in a 3-page full-color article in the London Telegraph, and in London’s The Times.

The Scooters – Traveling by scooter is fun and easy. We have a local scooter provider who supplies us with modern 125cc scooters. They are not Vespa™ brand but are very similar, with an electric start and automatic transmission. The brakes are on the handlebars, like a bicycle. We provide you with helmets. Travelling by scooter is the best way to get off the beaten track without working up a sweat! Of course, couples can ride together on one scooter (and save €100 for one person).

NOTE: A motorcycle license is NOT required to drive a scooter a 125cc scooter in Spain. A valid car license is required.

SCOOTER SAFETY & REQUIREMENTS - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!

To drive a scooter, you must be over 18 years of age & have a valid driver’s license. Previous experience driving a scooter or motorbike is essential. You must arrive at the start of the trip already a competent rider, otherwise the risk of injury and hospitalization is too great. If you have not ridden a scooter before then you should take lessons or rent a scooter locally and learn how to ride it before coming on the trip.

Please note: We will not teach you how to drive a scooter. You must arrive at the start of the trip already a competent rider.

You will be driving a motor vehicle on public roads. You are responsible for your safety but also for the safety of other motorists, bikers and pedestrians. You must be able to control the scooter and drive it competently. If we feel your driving skills put you and others at risk, we reserve the right to take the scooter away from you. In the event that you cannot ride as a passenger on the back of someone else’s scooter then we will help to arrange an alternative mode of transport such as a taxi or a rental car, but at your expense.

By making a booking, you declare to have a driving licence valid for the duration of the journey and for the vehicle used on this tour.

Andalusia Scooter Tour itinerary Request full itinerary

Day 1

The tour picks up at 9:00 am from the Hotel Rey Alfonso X (or similar), our recommended hotel in Seville. We have a 90-minute shuttle out of the city to get to Arcos de la Frontera, where your scooters will be waiting. The ride takes you to the beautiful “pueblo blanco” (white village) of Zahara where we stop for lunch. Continue from there to the El Tajo gorge and the historic hilltop village of Ronda, which has been inhabited since Neolithic times. Celts, Romans, Byzantines, Visigoths, Moors, and ultimately the Spanish have inhabited this strategic site. Our hotel for the next two nights is the Catalonia Ronda (or similar), located right next to the iconic and historic bull-fighting ring. Relax this afternoon in the hotel spa followed and then head up to the rooftop pool and bar for a drink before dinner. Overnight Ronda.  Hotel, breakfast, and dinner included.

Day 2

Today we ride along the "Ruta de Pueblos Blancos," a beautiful route that links the "white villages" together. We stop in the pretty mountain village of Grazalema, whose steep, cobbled streets are lined by whitewashed houses with wrought-iron balconies spilling forth a cheerful explosion of colourful blooms. A short walk takes you to a local farm where we have a tasting of their delicious homemade cheeses made from sheep and goat's milk. Our afternoon ride stays within the Sierra de Grazalema, a protected area featuring an impressively sculpted landscape of high limestone peaks, sheer cliff faces, lush valleys, and deep green forests. Stop for lunch in the picturesque town of Setenil de las Bodegas, renowned for its dwellings built into rock overhangs above the Rio Trejo. Return to Ronda for Tapas dinner. Overnight Ronda. Hotel, breakfast and dinner included.

Day 3

We head east today and ride through the “Puerta del Viento” pass to El Burgo for a coffee break before carrying on to El Chorro, a small town located at the mouth of the Gaitanes gorge and one of the most popular rock-climbing sites in Spain. Enjoy lunch at the Restaurant La Garganta which has an awesome view over the lake and steep limestone peaks beyond. After lunch you can choose to walk the "Caminito del Rey" [the King's path], one of the most impressive mountainside trails in the world. The route has been rebuilt to make it safe and it is now open after 15 years of closure, but it's not for the faint of heart! In the afternoon we glide on our scooters through bucolic farmland and past tiny hamlets, to the outskirts of the city of Antequera, where we find the Hotel La Magdalena, a 16th century convent transformed into a 4-star hotel. Head into town tonight to experience this lively baroque city before enjoying dinner at a local restaurant in the town centre. Overnight near Antequera. Hotel, breakfast and dinner included.

Day 4

Give your scooter a rest day today and transfer by van to Cordoba (about 1.5 hrs) for a guided visit of the “mesquita” (mosque), a UNESCO World Heritage site. Originally built as a mosque by the ruling Islamic caliphate that ruled all of Spain, it was eventually taken over by Christians who decided not to demolish the massive mosque (it could hold 30,000 people!), but to simply build a towering cathedral inside of it! There's no other building like it in the world. Afterwards, you have time to wander the city’s colorful streets and see some of their famous “patios” (courtyards often decorated lavishly with plants and decorated floors). Some private houses open their patios only in May, so we may be lucky enough to see some of these usually hidden gems. Return to your hotel in the afternoon and relax at the hotel's spa before dinner in the hotel restaurant. Overnight near Antequera. Hotel, breakfast and dinner included.

Day 5

Our morning starts with a breathtaking ride to “El Torcal,” a surreal  landscape of rounded limestone discs and towers formed by Nature’s own hand. We then ride to Alhama de Granada, whose name derives from ancient thermal baths, "al-hammah" in Arabic. After lunch we say goodbye to our scooters and take a private transfer to avoid the traffic to our last destination, the marvelous city of GranadaWe stay either the Hotel Palacio Santa Inés (or similar), in renovated noble houses from the 16th century, located in the heart of the old town. Tonight we go to Sacromonte, the most picturesque neighborhood of the city for its landscapes and cave houses, where people have always gone to play guitar, sing, and dance. Tonight we join in the fun and attend a Flamenco show. Olé! Overnight Granada. Hotel, breakfast, and dinner included.

Day 6

In the morning we have a guided visit of the Alhambra, former residence of the Arab Caliphs who ruled over Spain for seven centuries. It’s another UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most amazing palaces in the world. The tour officially concludes after the visit so you can have lunch where you like, and then move on to other destinations or extend your tour in town. Your guides will be happy to organize a taxi for you to the airport or other destinations. Breakfast and Alhambra visit included.

Departure from Granada: we have not included the final transfer because the departure options are too numerous. Some may wish to linger and spend an extra day in Granada, to explore the Albayzìn, a picturesque district that retains the narrow winding streets of its Medieval Moorish past, or even relax in the magical atmosphere of a traditional Arab hammam. Breakfast included.

Please note: According to the departure date of your tour some details of the itinerary may change. This is because we make discoveries whenever we run a tour. Sometimes they are good, like a wonderful new wine bar that we want to take you to, and sometimes bad, like a road has been washed away. We, therefore, sometimes change our itinerary to improve it by adding something new or substituting something that is no longer up to our standards.  We always aim to provide you with the best possible experience because we want you to come back for another tour! We will let you know before departure of any changes to the original itinerary.

Note on Itinerary: Although we do our best to adhere to the schedule listed above, this itinerary is subject to change for numerous reasons beyond our control, such as the weather

Booking: e-mail us at info@scooterbella.com to receive a booking contract (or use the 'Contact Us' link at the top of this page), or click on the 'Book Now' button to the right.

Insurance: We highly recommend the purchase of Trip Insurance. We recommend "Travel Guard" to our North American clients, just click on the logo below.  Australian, New Zealand, and British travelers, please consult your insurance brokers.

We will be riding about 100 kms a day, at least, therefore you need to be a good rider. We aim to break up the rides so that we do not ride more than 45 minutes in one stretch.

Previous experience driving a scooter or motorbike is essential. You must arrive at the start of the trip already a competent rider, otherwise the risk of injury and hospitalization is too great. If you have not ridden a scooter before then you should take lessons or rent a scooter locally and learn how to ride it before coming on the trip.

Physical activity is limited to walking in the towns and villages. 

The trip starts in Seville, which is easily accessible by air via most European hubs or by train from other cities in Spain.

Air: most trans-continental flights into Spain arrive in Madrid or Barcelona, but Seville is well connected with European hubs like London, Paris, Rome, Frankfut, etc. Be sure to check out the low-cost airline options like Vueling and Ryan Air as well as the major carriers. See the airport's website for the latest schedules.

Rail: trains from Madrid to Seville on the high-speed AVE service take under 3 hours. For more information, see the Spanish train service (RENFE) website.

Getting Away at the End of the Trip: the trip ends in Granada after the visit of the Alhambra on Friday morning. There is a small airport in Granada with connections to Madrid and Barcelona, plus the occasional connection to London and Paris. See their website for current schedules. You can also take a bus to Seville (3 hrs), Madrid (5 hrs) or Malaga (2 hrs). See this site for details on bus schedules.

If you book a trip with us you will receive detailed information about how to get to the start of your trip, or feel free to e-mail us with any specific travel questions.

The Andalusia was our second tour with Sara and Marco and like Tuscany, they had really done their homework. The entire trip was very well organised and we felt so fortunate to be able to visit those beautiful little mountain villages, difficult if not impossible without their guidance and expertise. That is the thing about scootering- you FEEL the country, you don't just see it. Thank you Sara and Marco for another very memorable experience.

Once again a fantastic tour with Sara and Marco guiding us. The itinerary was excellent, the scenery was breath taking and the scootering was just perfect in terms of routes travelled and timing. As a group we probably would have preferred a slightly higher level of service in some of the accomodation (bar service especially - we love our pre-dinner cocktails !!) but overall we just loved experiencing the Andalusian countryside, villages and towns. Marco and Sara were as usual outstanding company. The only slight negative was our guide on the last last day through the Alahmbra in Granada who was way too detailed, serious and one tracked in his delivery. Otherwise a fantastic tour and we look forward to another one somewhere soon !!

This is our second scooter trip with Scooterbella and we have enjoyed both. We loved Andalucia as the scootering was fantastic. The itineraray was fantastic and getting to travel through small villages and town was perfect. We would ideally also love to scooter all 5 days ( as opposed to the one day bus trip) however understand this may not work with the itinerary.)As previously both Sara and Marco were extremely professional during the tour. They provided us with lots of local knowledge, were professional and committed to looking after us and were great hosts. The only difference from the Tuscan experience to the Andalucia experience was that we had a couple of 'local' experiences during the days touring in Tuscany that I felt were lacking in Andalucia.( e.g. the wine cellar trip and lunch in a prive home in the tuscany tour). However overall our 5 day tour was fantastic and to be highly recommended. We would love to scooter in Puglia next.
