Itinerary
Heading southeast we leave Seville for the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park in the province of Cadiz, where one of the highest rainfall points in the entire Iberian peninsula is located. This area, declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, preserves among its mountains one of the most beautiful forests in Europe, the pinsapar. The pinsapo (Abies pinsapo) is a species of spruce surviving the last ice ages, which takes refuge in the coolest and wettest umbrias of this mountain range, still preserving some forests such as the Sierra del Pinar, in the municipality of Grazalema. Our first destination will be Zahara de la Sierra, where we will make a short stop to walk through its streets, admire the landscapes of the Sierra from its viewpoint, and have, if we wish, a snack before continuing our route.
From Zahara de la Sierra we head towards Setenil de las Bodegas, the impregnable village, as the story goes; in this beautiful place we can admire its houses carved into the rock, enjoy its wines and taste the rich cuisine of Setenil.
The end of this route is the majestic Ronda, of Celtic origin, also considered as one of the oldest cities in the West. In Ronda we will walk through the most emblematic places: the Alameda del Tagus, the Bullring and the New Bridge, which separates and divides the city into two parts. We will also have free time to continue visiting, if we wish, some of its monuments, its shopping area, and choose the most suitable place to enjoy a pleasant lunch in the many bars and restaurants that it offers.

We had a fantastic time on this day trip! Our guide was very helpful in explaining all about Seville, Ronda, and the White Villages we visited, and kept the experience flexible, pleasant, and fun for all! The trip took most of the day but we were back in time for dinner. It was really nice to be able to see Ronda and some other villages all in one go; it would have been difficult to do on my own unless I had a car. Our guide provided a helpful balance of advice and freedom - lots of good suggestions for what we should explore but we had the freedom to wander as we pleased until we met back up with the group at the designated time and place. Would love to come back and spend more time in all of these places; this is a good introduction so you can see a lot in one day.
It was a wonderful day with our excellent guide Roman. He was delightful, and knowledgeable and navigated us well. We saw incredibly beautiful scenery and exquisite towns. He was an amazing guide
This tour was amazing! Our guides Carlos and Claudia were so kind, informative, and FUN! They provided lots of good information while ensuring every member of the group had a wonderful experience. I cannot recommend this tour with these guides enough. Absolutely fantastic!
Excellent guide and tour with Roman and 6 travelers in a microbus to Ronda, Setenil and Zahara. Our guide was a great communicator and had so much interesting information to share about Spain and the region of Ronda. Most of the guiding was done on the bus as he didn’t really follow us into the towns to explain things to us, do if you're expecting a walking tour with guide, that was not provided. Otherwise great tour.
Roman has an extraordinary grasp of the history and geography of the area. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Returned yesterday from an enjoyable trip to 2 White villages and Ronda. Carlos is a very friendly and knowledgable guide driving a new vehicle and is a safe driver. Really enoyed it.
Great day spent visiting 2 white villages and Ronda. Small group , comfortable van and a great guide "Roman" . Enough free time in each village. Highly recommend it .
It was more than I expected. The mini van was comfortable and new and the driver/tour guide was the nicest man. So well spoken and knowledgeable He explained the history so well and brought things to our attention that I was not aware of. We really did have a wonderful history lesson 😍
This was a really good tour and our driver Carlos was both professional and friendly in equal measure. Carlos was always accommodating to everyone's needs and requests and made the day very enjoyable. The three places chosen were all interesting and photogenic. There was only one small criticism really and that was only that we wished we could have had more time in Ronda, but other than that it was all great and we would thoroughly recommend. Top marks Carlos!
We had a lovely day exploring Ronda & two of the white villages - Zahara and Setinel de Bodegas. Both villages were well worth going to see. Our guide Roman, was very knowledgeable, a sensible driver & a very nice person. Would recommend.
