Tour Itinerary Overview

Day 1:

After breakfast, depart for Jerez de la Frontera. Famous for its sherry Bodegas and Andalusian Horses. Check-in to the 4* hotel in the centre and take a tapas lunch near the main square. Jerez de la Frontera, or simply Jerez, is most definitely known for its production of Sherry in the Bodegas that dot the City and from the vineyards in the surrounding countryside. Wealthy merchants built palatial mansions in the centre of the City and their Sherry & Brandy Bodegas were established close by. We will give you a short orientation tour of Jerez. In the afternoon, take a Sherry Bodega tour. Spend the evening and night in Jerez.

We will walk into the main square with the town hall depicting the coat of arms of Hercules, the lion and the pillars and then walk around to the very old walls which encompass the original City and the oldest barrios/districts of El Pópulo, La Viña and Santa Maria. We will stop at the fascinating Roman Theatre for a visit before continuing to the exit of the old City in the beautiful Cathedral Square.
