Private Ronda & White Villages Day Trip, Seville

Experience the best of Andalusia's Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) on a private day trip from Seville. With the help of a knowledgeable driver and guide, you'll visit three of the region's most beautiful villages, starting with the mountainside Grazalema, surrounded by a national park. Continue to Zahara, perched beneath the ruins of a Moorish castle, and stop for lunch to sample some of the region's best tapas. Your last stop is Ronda, famous for its dramatic setting spanning a steep gorge. Here you'll have plenty of time to stroll across its historic bridge and see Spain's oldest bullring.

Your exploration of the beautiful region between Cádiz and Málaga begins with a private pick-up from your Seville accommodation in the morning. As you journey along the 1.5-hour route south, you'll experience classic Andalusian landscapes of arid mountainsides, blue skies, and stark Pueblos Blancos (White Villages) that dot the hilltops.

The first stop of the day is Grazalema, one of the region's highest mountain villages that traces its roots back to the Romans. Walk through the narrow, cobblestone streets and admire unspoiled views across the surrounding Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park. Afterward, you'll continue to Zahara, another quaint village known for its hilltop Moorish castle. Here, your guide will help you pick a local spot for lunch, where you can sample a selection of the best Andalusian tapas (not included).

The next leg of your journey takes you to Ronda, located atop a gorge in the Málaga province. This historic town is renowned for its dramatic location—it straddles a deep river gorge that drops 390 feet (120 m) straight down. The gorge divides the Old and New towns, which are connected by an 18th-century triple-arched bridge. You'll have plenty of free time to explore Ronda on your own, including a visit to the Plaza de Toros, Spain's oldest bullring. At the end of the day, you'll hit the road back to Seville and part ways with your driver and guide.
