Description and schedule of services

5th of June 2022: private day trip to Ronda from Seville

9am: meet your personal driver just outside Corral del Rey and be transferred in a modern and comfortable Mercedes vehicle to Ronda old town.

10:45am: upon arrival to Ronda old town, meet your personal local host and enjoy a private walking tour of the old town with a special focus on its history, most representative landmarks, viewpoints, picturesque locations and on its bullring (the oldest in Spain).

This private walking tour of Ronda old town will give you an excellent overview of the Hispanic-Muslim origins of the city and of the transformations that it started to experience in 1485 when it was conquered by Christians. It was then when many wealthy military orders settled down in Ronda in order to defend its strategic location near the straits of Gibraltar and very well connected to the main Southern Spanish cities.

These new inhabitants erected many noble residences and funded the construction of impressive religious constructions too. In the 18th century Ronda experienced a time of maximum splendour and its main landmark was built: the majestic New Bridge, which you will visit during your tour.
Ronda has also stunning nature in its surroundings and your tour will take you to the best viewpoints. This will allow you to understand why this whitewashed gem attracted so many romantic travellers in the 19th century during their Grand Tour and the impact that their written, drawn and painted portraits of Andalusia had in the international perception of Spain in the following decades until today.

After this introduction to Ronda, enjoy a private guided tour of its bullring (the oldest in Spain). This tour will allow you to learn about the origins and evolution of bullfighting in Spain, while you see the different sections of the bullring, from the pens where the bulls are kept before the fight, to the arena where the actual fight takes place, from the chapel where the matadors say their prayers before the fight, to the areas where the audience and the bullring authorities sit. You will also be explained about brave bull breeding and about how different bullrings choose different bulls with different characteristics for their fights.

1:45pm: end of your tour of Ronda and free time for lunch at leisure and to maybe explore the town a little bit further on your own. We will give you recommendations of places to eat in Ronda.

3:45pm: reconnect with your personal driver and be transferred from Ronda back to Corral del Rey.

5:30pm: arrival to Corral del Rey and end of services for the day.
