Hop from castle to castle and wend your way through Spain's most prestigious wine regions, names to conjure with Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Toro and Rueda.

Visit the great wine centres of Laguardia, Haro, Logroño, Peñafiel and Valladolid and 'drink in' the traditions and beautiful landscapes

It's not all about the wine – authentic castles, each different and charmingly restored, will be your home at each stop and you'll find plenty to visit from historic villages to the monumental university city of Salamanca and plenty more besides

The example route takes one week and costs from £650 per person (flights not included) but you can do as little, or as much, as you like.

Fly to Madrid or Bilbao or a combination of both
