Hearing the history of such an important town during the Civil War in Spain while touring the devastation that happened was all done with great respect and detail by our guide Marta. She was wonderful.

We did the Midday Olive Oil Tour and Old Town Belchite visit with @Rutica41Spain, and it was incredible from start to finish. Our guide, Marta, was outstanding—super knowledgeable, engaging, and full of interesting facts that really brought the history and culture to life. The olive oil tour was fascinating (and tasty!), and walking through the ruins of Old Belchite with someone who knows the full story made it unforgettable. Highly recommend this experience if you want something real, local, and totally worth your time!

Amazing tour with Jorge. Our 1st and only time visiting an olive oil makers and it was great to see everything from the trees to the production. Visiting Belchite was really eye opening and a great experience too. Would highly recommend, it's a great way to spend a morning/afternoon if you're visiting Zaragoza.
