Iberian Adventure: Paella, Palaces and Port

Here I sit, tapping my fingers anxiously on the armrest of seat 16A — like castanets accenting the beat inside a café cantante (singers cafe) — aboard TAP Airlines flight Eight-Six-Niner as I wing my way towards Lisbon, the first leg on a six-day, whirlwind Insight Vacations‘ (Insight) journey around Portugal and Spain.

Once down on terra firma, I’ll marry up with another “band of merry media,” 25 or so fellow journalists and photographers from around the globe invited by Insight to sample a portion of its Iberian Adventure.

The Insight itinerary guarantees a healthy dose of the sweet life along two sides of the Iberian Peninsula: a doce vida in Portugal — via Lisboa, Sintra, Azeitao, Évora and Monsaraz — and la dulce vida in Spain — via Seville and Cordoba, with additional personal stops tacked on at the end as I extend this Iberian Adventure into Granada, Toledo, Madrid and Barcelona.

Pack a bag and join me and my intrepid “band of merry media” aboard a business-class legroom motor coach as we experience firsthand the “art of touring in style” on Insight’s Iberian Adventure, an adventure sure to be filled with “signature” moments, fine dining and restful nights in five-star hotels.

Uh-oh, the seatbelt light just came on. We’re making our descent into Lisbon.

Look out Iberia, here I come!
