On this comprehensive tour, we will visit two of the most beautiful and picturesque white villages in Andalusia.
First, we will visit Ronda, perched on top of a plateau crossed by the Guadalevín River gorge. We will marvel at the breathtaking views from its most photographed spot, the impressive New Bridge, which connects the old city with the new over a 100-meter-deep abyss. Accompanied by our local guides, we will visit this walled city, the setting for stories and legends of bandits and bullfighters, and we will understand firsthand the many reasons why Ronda is one of the most visited cities in Andalusia. As the Czech poet Rainer Maria Rilke said after traveling throughout Europe, “I have searched everywhere for the city of my dreams, and I have finally found it in Ronda… There is nothing more unexpected in Spain than this wild and mountainous city.” We will enjoy free time for lunch and recharge our batteries to discover our next destination.
Next, we will visit the beautiful village of Setenil de las Bodegas, a network of streets literally embedded in the Guadalporcún River canyon. The rustic beauty of its traditional architecture, where the white of the facades and the ochre of the stone become its hallmarks, and above all, the uniqueness of its cave streets, will make us fall in love with its charm. The village is an open-air geology lesson, divided by the river, with the Cuevas de Sol (Sun Caves) on one side and the Cuevas de Sombra (Shadow Caves) on the other. We will enjoy a beautiful walk under these ancient rocks, where you can walk in the rain… without getting wet! After a short break in Setenil, our bus will take us to Ronda, the dream city of Andalusia.
