## Our recommendation

Choose Andalusia for white villages and Moorish palaces: five days and about 328 km from Seville via Setenil, Ronda and Málaga to Granada’s Alhambra, whose tickets sell out weeks ahead. Go in March–April or October–November, as inland Andalusia is very hot in July and August. Pick Lisbon to the Algarve for the Atlantic: four days and about 413 km via Sintra, Cabo da Roca and Sagres to the cliffs of Lagos and Faro, best April–May and September–November. Overnight motorhome parking is restricted outside campsites and designated areas, and some motorways have electronic-only tolls.
