What to expect
Bridge between Moors and the Middle Ages
Ronda is one of the most unusual cities in the world. It is located on top of a mountain, above the deep gorge of El Tajo. You will walk across a stone bridge that connects the Old and New Towns and understand why locals say that in this place 'rain drips from the bottom up'. We will walk through the most interesting places in Ronda and visit an ancient church where the nuns bake traditional cookies using a secret recipe. I will reveal curious names of church sweets and talk about the writers inspired by Ronda and the peculiarities of life in the small Spanish town.
Wine secrets and balcony over the abyss
You will see not only the famous but also hidden corners of the city, where its true soul is felt. I will show you the El Taho balcony on the edge of the cliff, offering a breathtaking view of endless valleys and vineyards. You will learn about the history of local hop beverages' origin and all the intricacies of Ronda's wine culture. To consolidate the material, we will end the tour in a city tavern with a glass of the best local wine.
