After picking you up at your accommodation or the agreed meeting point, we will explore the most impressive and beautiful landscape in northern Granada, near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains: Guadix. This area is known for its Paleolithic past and its cave houses, many of which are still inhabited by the local people.

We will visit the cave district and Trópolis, a museum located in an original cave, learning about cave dwellings and how people lived and still live, experiencing their traditions and artisanal professions.

Later, we will see the Castillo de la Calahorra, situated on a hill above the town of the same name. It is one of the first Italian Renaissance castles outside Italy, built on top of an ancient Moorish fortification.

Finally, explore the Tabernas Desert on your own, a landscape of arid slopes and the chosen location for Hollywood directors who created the Spaghetti Western. Discover where Lawrence of Arabia, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, A Fistful of Dollars, and many more were filmed.
