Full description

After leaving the Costa del Sol and Malaga, continue along a scenic route with local vegetation such as orange trees, olive trees, and cork oak and the white village of Ardales and Cuevas del Becerro.

Arrive at Setenil de las Bodegas, one of the most beautiful and original white villages in the province of Cádiz. Take advantage of your free time to enjoy this peculiar town. Visit the houses embedded under the rocks of the precipice and sit down for a coffee.

In Ronda, arrive at the bus station before continuing on foot and enjoy a guided tour of the main sights. A walking tour in the romantic town center with its churches, mini-palaces, and Spain's oldest bullring, offers plenty to uncover.

Enjoy the incredible views of the Puente Nuevo, which crosses the “Tajo” (the Cut) on the Guadalevin river where you'll taste a local Ronda wine on a terrace with an exclusive view of the Tagus Bridge.

The Palacio Mondragón, also known as Palacio del Marqués de Villasierra, is, without doubt, an interesting visit, being a landlord Palais with Arabic gardens, but it is also the Archeologic Museum of Ronda, with interesting pieces proving the antiqueness of the city.

Enjoy your free time to explore the city at your own pace.

Coached from coast to Setinel for a walk round the village for about an hour unescorted. Lots of small cafe/bars to grab a quick snack. Onto Ronda for escorted walk around gorge sights and into the old town before being left to do our own thing for about 21/2 hrs. Guide was excellent both in the coach journey and the tour and was pretty good value. Added bonus of coming back a different route to let us see more of the national park.

Very nice day. The time split between the two cities was adequate. Setenil is really worth seeing even if you quickly go around it. Rhonda is absolutely beautiful. The guided tour of the old town is very popular. The guide knew her subject. She speaks three languages (Spanish, English and French) which is helpful and is very available for questions. The bus is on time and very comfortable. Activity to do with departure from anywhere on the Costa del Sol.

We were a bit skeptical about using a bus tour having a large group of people. The bus picks up people from 3 different cities and then leaves to the 2 destinations. I was surprised that everyone came at the right time and the bus left from Malaga which was the last pickup right on time. We had an awesome tour guide named Kathy (Kathleen) who was giving the guidance in English and Spanish. Again our concerns were put to rest because she did her job so efficiently and never felt that we were not informed what was happening. The landscape on the way is just serene and beautiful and Kathy described the history as well as all the important aspects of what we were looking at and we felt reached Setenil quite quickly because we were never bored. After a brief introduction of the place we were given 45 minutes to see the place ourselves. We did this and were back and we left for Ronda. At Ronda, we were given a very nice tour again by Kathy for an hour and a half. Ronda is so beautiful, it wi
