Private Day Trip to soaring over the abyss Ronda city & the white village Mijas

The tour starts with pick-up at the cruise port of Malaga or your hotel in Malaga. First, you will go to Ronda where you will have 2 hours private walking tour. Here you will see an impressive stone bridge that connects two parts of the city. The Puente Nuevo is the most emblematic monument of Ronda. Built in 1788, the bridge is a feat of engineering and a masterpiece of stone masonry. The 70-meter-long bridge crosses the El Tajo Gorge at its narrowest point and reaches a height of 98 meters from the bottom of the ravine.

At your request, you can visit the Plaza de Toros (Bullring) (entrance fees are not included in the tour price). The second oldest bullfighting ring in Spain, the Plaza de Toros is a living testament to the region's most famous custom. Ronda was the home of the Romero dynasty of matadors (Francisco, Juan, and Pedro), who developed the rules of the present-day bullfight in the 18th and 19th centuries. This site is the main tourist attraction in El Mercadillo, the new town of Ronda, and was immortalized by Hemingway in his novel Death in the Afternoon.

A hidden treasure of Ronda, these 13th- to 15th-century thermal baths are considered the best-preserved Moorish Baths in Spain. The Baños Arabes are near the Puente Viejo in the Barrio de San Miguel just outside of La Cuidad. The baths were built along the Arroyo de las Culebras (Snakes' Stream), a source of spring water, which has a perfectly preserved water wheel from the Moorish era.

A beautiful 19th-century public park, the Alameda del Tajo is next to Plaza de Toros overlooking the Tajo gorge. Filled with towering pines, this lush and spacious garden provides a welcome shady spot to relax on warm days. The park's tree-lined paths are ideal for taking walks. Many local families head to this park for the paseo (evening stroll). A duck pond adds to the peaceful environment. Some areas of the park offer magnificent panoramic views of the Ronda landscapes.

Located in the same square as Ronda's Town Hall (Plaza Duquesa de Parcent), this historic church is locally known as the Iglesia de Santa María de la Encarnación la Mayor. The site has long been home to places of worship, beginning as a pre-Christian Roman altar, then a Visigoth church, later a Muslim mosque built in the 14th century, and then converted to a cathedral and added to in the late 15th century; most of what remains today was rebuilt after a major earthquake in 1580.

At the end of a two-hour Ronda city walking tour, your guide will show you the best panorama of the city with a glass of legendary local wine! Also, you will have time for lunch after Ronda city tour. Jardines De Cuenca offers spectacular views from literally every corner, the Jardines de Cuenca, is a garden, perfect to spend the day out. Have a picnic, pluck fresh olives, sleep under the trees amidst life-sized gorges, and the sky disappearing into eternity. The walkway full of ascends and descends has several pit stops perfect to just pause and take in the panoramic views. Summers can get a little too hot to take strolls in the garden, but there is ample shade to your respite.

Your next stop is Mijas – the white village located on the mountainside right above the Costa del Sol. Probably one of the most picturesque towns in the province of Malaga. Mijas is one of many White Villages of Andalucia, but locals like to believe it is by far the most beautiful one – on this tour you will be able to check it by yourself.

These beautiful gardens are the remains of the ancient fortress where the village was located in the Muslim era. They currently offer a pleasant walk, a gorge where rock climbing takes place and several panoramic viewpoints. From the gardens you can see Gibraltar and the coast of Africa on clear days. The tour will end with a return back to your hotel or cruise port.
