Season 1
8 episodes
Michael explores the rugged green region of Asturias on Spain's northern coast, winding through mountains to a traditional fiesta, exploring the capital Oviedo, and sampling the region's cloudy cider.
Michael travels to Bilbao and San Sebastian where he explores the Guggenheim Museum, enjoys Basque finger food, and joins in the Basque rural games where sporting skill are tested.
Michael explores Valencia, beginning in the Old Town. There he soaks up the sights of two historic squares adjacent to the Cathedral, before climbing the bell tower. He then heads to El Cabanyal to try a traditional esmorzar brunch, and explores the Turia Gardens, and the City of Arts & Sciences.
Michael travels to Mallorca, starting in the capital Palma, where he heads to the top of its cathedral. Later he goes to the north, once almost cut off from the rest of Mallorca by the towering Tramontana mountains. With the help of a new road tunnel, Michael reveals how the beautiful town of Soller made its fortune from selling citrus fruit to the French during the 19th and 20th centuries.
In Andalucia, Michael uncovers Almeria's hidden history - from its magnificent fortress and desert film sets to crystal caves, coastal sunsets, and a final burst of fandango in the city.
Michael avoids the crowds along the Costa Blanca and heads to the neighbouring region of Murcia, where 175 miles of Mediterranean coastline remain largely undiscovered. First stop is the region's second city and ancient port, Cartagena. Later he heads to Europe's biggest saltwater lagoon, the Mar Menor, where locals swear by therapeutic mud baths.
Michael explores Ibiza, heading beyond the nightclubs and superyachts to reveal an island with secrets dating back thousands of years. First, he visits a well party, celebrating Ibiza's ancient water wells, where locals perform the Ball de Pagès, a 13th-century folk dance. Later, in Ibiza Town's Dalt Vila, Michael navigates streets so narrow, his hotel buggy barely squeezes through them.
