We’ll begin our day by picking you up in a comfortable bus at the designated time and location, heading through the scenic Costa del Sol towards our first destination, Setenil de las Bodegas.
Setenil de las Bodegas is renowned for its unique architecture, where houses and shops are built directly into and under the cliffs. As we arrive, you’ll have about an hour of free time to explore this enchanting village. Stroll through the iconic streets of Cuevas del Sol and Cuevas de la Sombra, marveling at how the buildings seamlessly blend with the natural rock formations. Be sure to visit the Mirador del Carmen for panoramic views and take a leisurely walk around the picturesque Plaza de Andalucía.
After soaking in the beauty of Setenil, we’ll continue our journey to the historic city of Ronda, dramatically perched above the El Tajo gorge. Our visit begins with a guided walking tour to uncover Ronda’s most significant landmarks. We’ll start at the historic Plaza de Toros de la Maestranza, one of Spain’s oldest bullrings, and then move on to the Alameda del Tajo, where you can enjoy the breathtaking vistas from the famous “Balcony of Coño.”
Next, we’ll head to the Plaza Duquesa de Parcent, surrounded by important historical buildings such as the Town Hall and the Church of Santa María la Mayor. Our tour will include a visit to the Casa Museo Don Bosco, a modernist mansion with stunning gardens that overlook the gorge. Here, you’ll have the chance to taste Ronda’s traditional sweet treat, “yemas del tajo.”
One of the highlights of our tour is the Puente Nuevo, an awe-inspiring bridge that spans the gorge with spectacular views of the canyon below. We’ll take a moment to enjoy a glass of Spanish wine on a terrace with exclusive views of the bridge, capturing the essence of Ronda’s dramatic scenery.
After the guided tour, you’ll have approximately two hours of free time to explore Ronda at your own pace. This is the perfect opportunity to savor local cuisine at a charming restaurant, visit the ancient Arab Baths, the Mirador del Puente Nuevo, or the fascinating Casa del Rey Moro with its lush gardens.
As the day comes to an end, we’ll regroup and make our way back to Torremolinos, reflecting on a day filled with the stunning beauty and rich history of Andalusia’s most captivating towns.
