I have done some research after getting advices from the lovely members of Fodorland.
This is how our trip would look like.
Madrid- Arrive late night. Head to the Hotel.
Day 1- Madrid- Take advantage of the whole day and go to see main attractions
Day 2- In the morning head to Sevilla by Train- Refresh, go out in the evening
Day 3- Spend one day in Sevilla- visit main attractions
Day 4- Day trip to Cordoba from sevilla
Instead of coming back to Sevilla head straight to Granada from Cordoba by bus/train whichever is quickest
Day 5 & 6- Granada- visit main attractions and the in the evening go back to Madrid.
Day 7- Flight is in the afternoon, so make the most of morning & mid-day to go to museums
Please, point out if you think some changes needed. Thanx in advance!
