Well organized. Excellent tour guide- had to use 3 language throughout the entire day! Comfortable bus. Would have enjoyed more time in Ronda and less in oil factory.”

We found this tour to be well worth the cost in terms of time and interest. We lucked out with tour guide, Lupita, who was funny, patient, and knowledgeable. The towns and visit to the olive oil factory enhanced our visit to the Seville area. We highly recommend it.”

The value you get with this tour is exceptional. Kind of hard to believe that we got the experience we got at that price. The towns are of course amazing, but the little extras included with the trip are solid as well. Olive mill was awesome (these types of stops can sometimes be corny or clear marketing relationships), the restaurant Guido recommends for lunch is rock solid, and the group is small enough to be thoroughly enjoyable. It's "guided" enough to learn a lot, but allows for ample free time in each stop to go exploring. Guido is knowledgeable, funny, and personable. One tip: we didn't arrive back in Sevilla until well past 8PM. It was worth it for my wife and I because we didn't plan anything for the evening and valued spending more time in the villages, but just know that the tour is longer than advertised.”

Highly recommended to visit these places. Kristina the guide was good and made the whole tour wonderful.”

We had the most marvellous day trip with Cristina guiding us and speaking excellent English. Our driver (unfortunately can't remember his name) was also excellent and extremely safe on the narrow precipitous mountain roads. The White Villages, where we first had breakfast and later lunch, were just wonderful with amazing views into the valley and lake below. Then on to Ronda passing olive groves, stands of cork oaks and more amazing views. The bridge in Ronda just takes your breath away and we were brave enough to look over into the gorge, with its cliff sides, down to the river below. Cristina was an excellent guide and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the area. We would highly recommend this tour.”

Amazing tour thanks to our guide, David!!! He knew everything he needed to make our trip unforgettable, told us so much about the history and ways of all the places we saw. We visited Sahara de la Sierra, Ronda and an amazing little town called Setenil. The views were amazing, we took every photo we wanted and spent as much time as we wanted in each place. This tour of the White Villages is a must!!!”

This was an excellent, informative tour with choice of sights, right amount of time allotted at the sights. There were a total of six guests in a comfortable van and our driver/guide, whose name I do not remember was amazing.”

This was an excellent tour. Our guide Guido was friendly, engaging and highly knowledgeable. He was both driver and guide and did a great job for a very full day of sight-seeing. All sites we visited were fascinating and Guido kept everyone interested and took us to an excellent place for lunch. We had the right balance of free time. The only downside was we somehow gained an extra passenger who should have been in a different tour so 2 of our group had to sit up front and they were a bit squashed - this was not Guido's fault.”

Our guide, Aurora, was knowledgeable and entertaining. Even though the day started out rainy, Aurora was positive and encouraging. At the village of Zahara de la Sierra our group stopped at a small café for a snack and hot drink. Many of us walked across the street and made an unplanned umbrella purchase much to the delight of the shop keeper. We walked through the lovely village which was quiet with very few people out and about, possibly due to the morning showers. By mid-morning the rain disappeared so we were really able to better enjoy the other village and Ronda. We had lunch in the next village, Grazalema, and had time to walk around and take photos. Ronda was the last stop. Here we viewed the awesome New Bridge which was built in the 18th century and explored on our own.”

This was a great day trip. The three villages plus the olive oil factory was more than expected. We were lucky to score a festival in one of the villages and hence an added bonus. All 3 villages have their own beauty. Winding roads to get there but worth it. Make sure you organise your drop off point in the evening with the provider not bus driver or guide.”
