Advice Itinerary Help: Southern Spain to Nice and Beyond

[BeyondDestinations]

I'm flying into Madrid and planning to spend 4-5 days exploring southern Spain before heading to the French coast, Nice, and possibly visiting Paris, Venice, and Munich. I'm looking for suggestions on must-see places in southern Spain, how to best structure my itinerary to fit in these cities, and transportation tips. Any recommendations on specific attractions or hidden gems? Thanks in advance for your help!

That sounds like an exciting trip! For southern Spain, Seville and Granada are must-visits. Seville's Alcázar and Granada's Alhambra are breathtaking. Consider taking a high-speed train from Madrid to Seville to start. From there, you can explore Andalusia by train or bus, which are efficient and scenic. For Nice, flying from Malaga or Barcelona might be the quickest option. How much time are you planning to spend in each city? That could help in structuring your itinerary better.
