Spain
Private tours across Spain’s cities and coastlines.
Cities of character, cultural heritage and Mediterranean coastal travel.
Spain gathers great cities, cultural heritage, and Mediterranean coastline within a short radius. Barcelona and Madrid are cities worth multiple visits. San Sebastian has one of the highest concentrations of Michelin-starred restaurants per square kilometre in the world. Marbella operates on a different schedule from the rest of the country.
A pintxos tour through the old quarter of San Sebastian with a local who knows which bars are worth two stops and which are for tourists. A table at Arzak on a Friday evening when the booking page says fully reserved. We arrange privately guided tours across Spain with the same contact from the first city to the last.
Ibiza in June before the high season. Mallorca in September when the roads are quiet and the fincas are still warm. These windows exist for a reason. We plan around them.
WHAT WE HANDLE
Barcelona and Madrid
Privately guided tours of the Gothic Quarter, the Eixample, and the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. Madrid art tours covering the Prado, the Reina Sofia, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza in a single day with specialists rather than headphone guides. Flamenco in Madrid at a venue that is not on the tourist circuit.
San Sebastian and the Basque Country
Restaurant reservations at Mugaritz, Arzak, Akelare, and the new generation of Basque tables. Pintxos tours through the old quarter with informed local guides. Day trips into the Rioja and Ribera del Duero wine regions with estate visits and owner-hosted lunches.
Marbella and the Southern Coast
Villa arrangements on the Golden Mile and in the Sierra Blanca. Beach club access at venues where the summer season fills months in advance. Day trips to Ronda, Seville, and Granada by private car. Gibraltar crossings for clients with yachts berthed in La Linea.
Ibiza and Mallorca
Private villa rentals on both islands with direct owner access. Ibiza for the northern countryside as much as the coast. Mallorca for the Tramuntana mountain routes, the coves of the east coast, and the market town circuit through the interior. Yacht charters connecting both islands for clients who want to move between them.
Multi-City Journeys
Barcelona to Madrid by high-speed rail with private transfers at both ends. Coastal circuits from Barcelona to Valencia and south to Marbella by private car. Spain connects naturally with Portugal for clients designing a broader Iberian itinerary.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
What does Concierge Atelier arrange in Spain?
Spain runs on timing and the right tables. We arrange Madrid and Barcelona in a private rhythm, Andalusian days built around houses and courtyards rather than sights, and San Sebastián eaten properly. Multi-day journeys here are composed through Private Travel Design.
When is Mallorca at its best for a private stay?
June and September, when the sea is warm and the Serra de Tramuntana roads are quiet. August fills the island and the good restaurants in Deià and Port de Sóller. Fincas with staff in the northwest book out by early spring.
Can you arrange Marbella beyond the obvious beach clubs?
Yes, our Marbella work centers on private villas in La Zagaleta and the hills above the town. We arrange golf at the members’ courses, private chefs, and evenings that never touch the strip. Andalusian day trips to Ronda run with a private driver.
Is Ibiza workable for clients who want privacy rather than nightlife?
Yes, the north of the island is a different place entirely. We place clients in walled fincas near Santa Gertrudis and San Juan with boats on standby. Dinner reservations and any club access are handled quietly if wanted, and skipped if not.
How do you combine Madrid or Barcelona with the coast?
Two or three city nights followed by a short flight to Mallorca or Málaga is the clean pattern. In Madrid we arrange private Prado visits and tables that locals hold. The cities are best outside July and August, the islands best inside June and September.
When To Visit
Spring and autumn are ideal; the coast is best avoided in July and August unless heat is preferred.
