What to expect

The rustic whitewashed villages dotted around the Andalusian sierra are some of the most enchanting places to visit, especially when there's a special event happening. Ana, one of our expert local guides, says, 'On June 8th 2024, Ronda steps back in time to 1509, and the town is transformed into a stage. See parades featuring locals dressed up in period costumes to represent 'Damas Goyescas,' 'Arrieros' and 'Bandoleros,' traditional figures from Ronda's history. There's lots of music and merriment too.'

This tour takes you deep into the mountains to explore the precariously perched town of Ronda in fiesta mode, and also get to know the village of Setenil de las Bodegas. In Ronda, as well as watching the special events, you'll have free time to browse the markets, visit the Mondragon Palace, the Church of Santa Maria la Mayor or the Palace of St John Bosco, which affords incredible views over the bridge.

Soak up its traditional ‘pueblo blanco' charm as you wander along medieval streets and cross the famous bridge 100 metres above the gorge. Afterwards, continue through the valley to the final stop at the village of Setenil de las Bodegas. This picturesque town is known for its unique architecture, where some of its houses are built directly into the surrounding cliffs. The narrow and winding streets meander among the rock formations, creating a charming atmosphere. You enjoy some more free time before returning to your hotel.

Full day Tour of Cordoba during the Patio Festival

On this full day tour, you'll visit the UNESCO-listed old town of Cordoba in May, when it comes to life during the annual patio competition. You'll see the flower-festooned patios on a guided tour, discover the great mosque and enjoy free time to explore. Paco, one of our local guides, says, ‘Scratch beneath the surface in Cordoba, and you'll find the orient. Everywhere you look, the past stares back at you. And for a true flavour of modern Cordoba, make sure to try our trademark chilled salmorejo soup.'Once the biggest city in Europe, Cordoba offers up an exotic mix of Roman, Moorish, Christian and Jewish influences – all reflected in the old town. You'll set off on an extended walking tour of the San Basilio neighbourhood to see it all for your own eyes, while also taking in a couple of the patios decorated in flowers for the festival that takes place throughout May. They bring so much colour to the city and are eminently instagrammable. Afterwards, you'll be handed your ticket to enter the medieval mosque, or Mezquita – Cordoba's showpiece. Get the lowdown from your expert local guide on the history behind this UNESCO World Heritage Site. It boasts 800 two-tiered arches, honeycombed domes and many more treasures. Uniquely, it hosts a no-expense-spared decorated Renaissance cathedral in its core. There's also free time for lunch – why not head to La Juderia for a salmorejo? – and the chance to cross the famous Roman Bridge by foot.
