Private tour of the spectacular Ronda and Setenil with private English speaking official guide (Ronda only) to give you a wonderful insight of the history and culture of this spectacular place./ / The 2 hour journey from Malaga passing through fascinating countryside, we arrive at this unique village of Setenil de las bodegas, which was named after its abundant wineries, which unfortunately were destroyed many years ago by an insect infestation.
Setenil is very unique and unusual village compared to most white villages of Andalusia. Where most white villages were built on mountains and hills, this town is built into caves in the cliffs above the river Trejo. Its dazzling white houses jut out from the rocks. It certainly is one of the most unique villages in Andalusia.
We journey on to Ronda (20 minutes) Ronda is one of the oldest towns in Spain, dating back to the Neolithic age, with many aspects of those still available to see.
The town itself still retains much of its charm, despite the thousands of tourist who visit Ronda every year, particularly its old town. It is most famous for its fantastic views over the deep gorge called El Tajo. Everyone heads for 18th century Puente Nuevo 'New' bridge, which crosses the 100m drop below.
The promenade leading around from the gorge gives stunning views to the Serranía de Ronda mountains.
Ronda fascinating history includes the Romans and Moors.The town was one of the last Moorish enclaves to fall to the Spanish Conquistadors.
The town is also home to a number of impressive historical sites that bring people in droves from all over the world. One of the most important sites of Ronda is the Plaza de Toros or Bullring.
