Description and schedule of services
–
10am: meet your personal local host at your hotel and start a private walking tour of the city that will have a special focus on its Phoenician origins, on the period when it held the monopoly of all trade with the New World and on its fabulous food and wine scene.

You will start this walking tour seeing incredibly well preserved evidence of the Phoenician past of the city. This will allow you to understand who the Phoenicians were, where they came from, why they based themselves in Cadiz and the impact that their arrival had in the present gastronomy and wines of Southern Spain.

Later, you will travel forward in time to the 18th century, when the city held the monopoly of all trade with the Americas, formerly established in Seville. The bourgeoisie that settled down in Cádiz in this period transformed the city completely into a refined and cosmopolitan colonial hub. These new inhabitants commissioned the construction of very impressive civil and religious buildings to prove their financial status.

You will be taken to visit some hand-picked ones, to later understand that these merchants brought to Cádiz not only material wealth, but also new ideas and new foods from the New World, that slowly transformed the local gastronomy making it more and more diverse.

12:15pm: After this introduction and surely hungry, you will be taken on a gastronomy tour of the city including tastings of selected local produce in the local market, a stop in a selected local tavern where you’ll be introduced to the famous fortified wines that traveled from Cadiz to the new world and a tapas lunch in a local family-run and family-owned bar including a selection of 6 – 9 local dishes to share and up to 3 drinks per person.

2:30pm: end of the tour and rest of the day at leisure.
