Another site that you might recognize are the 12th-century Arab Baths, the setting for an important scene in Braavos between Arya and the Waif.
One of the highlights of the program is a climb up the 86 steps to the city's immense Cathedral which was filmed as the Great Sept of Baelor, the largest building in King's Landing.

Valencia is the third largest city in Spain after Madrid and Barcelona which combines the heritage of its farthest past, with the most innovative and avant-garde buildings.
Following breakfast, you check out from the Barcelona hotel and have a transfer to the rail station where you take a 2-hour train to the Benicarlo station. Upon arrival, you meet your guide and driver and have a short transfer to Peniscola, a touristic town in the province of Castellon located along the Mediterranean coast.
Peniscola was used for the Meereen exterior scenes throughout most of Season 6. Several areas of the town were used during filming, including the Peniscola Castle, Plaza Santa Maria, and the Parque de la Artilleria. Together with your guide, you take a nice walk around the old streets and along the city walls with the gates. You also pay an inside visit to the castle.

Without a doubt, taking a train is one of the most comfortable ways to travel between the beautiful cities of Valencia and Cordoba. All Spanish trains are fast, safe, and offer great amenities, such as comfortable seats, ample luggage space, and plenty of legroom. Our local driver will take you to the station on time and meet you upon arrival.
Cordoba, Spain is a city with a unique and multicultural heritage. The city was founded by the Romans due to its strategic location on the Guadalquivir River and over time it became an important port town.
Following breakfast, you meet your private guide and driver in the hotel lobby and head for Castillo Almodovar del Rio, a castle in the province of Cordoba located 30 km (19 mi) from the city. The castle doubled up for High Gardens, the residence of the House Tyrell.
After the tour of the castle, you return to Cordoba. You enjoy a guided walking tour around the most outstanding sights of Cordoba that used to be the largest city of Roman Spain. During the tour you see the famous 14th-century Royal Castle - Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos and of course the gem of the city - the renowned Great Mosque of Cordoba.
You pay special attention to the ancient Roman Bridge. The 1st century BC bridge across the Guadalquivir River served as the Long Bridge of Volantis. An interesting fact is that in the film the bridge was made remarkably bigger thanks to CGI (Computer-generated imagery).
After the tour, you have the rest of the day at leisure.
Breakfast is included.
Today following breakfast, you check out from your hotel and depart from Cordoba. Together with your guide and driver, you explore the small Andalusian town of Osuna on the way to Seville.
Osuna's Plaza de Toros, or bullring, was used for filming the main fighting pit of Meereen. The great pit fight of Daznak was just a four-minute scene, though it became one of the most memorable and dramatic moments in Season 5. During the tour, you explore the bullring and the Game of Thrones Museum which hosts a lot of original items. You have a guided walk through the beautiful old town before continuing your way to Seville.
Upon arrival, you are accompanied to your downtown Seville hotel for check-in and have the remaining part of the day at leisure.

Marvelous Seville is a historic treasure, homeland of tapas, and simply a joyous town. The biggest town in southern Spain is full of surprises.
Today you meet your guide and get to experience the authentic Andalusian spirit in one of its most important cities and its surroundings. First, you have a tour at the Roman ruins in Italica*, located just outside Seville. In this fantastic location, the final scenes of Season 7 were shot.
After exploring Italica, you have a private transfer back to Seville. You explore the beautiful Real Alcazar of Seville - the oldest European royal residence composed of a group of buildings from different time periods. The Cathedral and Alcazar along with General Archive of the Indies are registered by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
