Ronda and Grazalema Tour
The whitewashed mountain villages of Andalusia are among the most authentic places to visit near the Costa de la Luz. On this trip, you'll discover the mountain-ringed village of Grazalema and the perched-on-a cliff town of Ronda to take in the dramatic scenery of the sierra.
Your day starts in the valley village of Grazalema – a maze of narrow lanes flanked by whitewashed houses overflowing with flowers, surrounded by rocky peaks on all sides. You'll have free time to look around and admire its rugged setting.
Then it's on to ancient Ronda, which straddles a gorge. It's claimed to be where Spanish traditions such as flamenco and bullfighting originated. You'll be able to soak up its charm with free time to wander around the medieval streets and over the famous bridge. You'll also have free time to explore at your own pace. The Mondragon Palace, the Church of Santa Maria la Mayor or the Casa Don Bosco – which affords incredible views over the bridge – are all worth a visit.

A quirky potpourri of the familiar and the unusual, Gibraltar is a must-visit. This tour is a roll call of its star attractions – the Barbary apes, the Rock and Main Street. And to top it off, you'll sail around the Bay of Gibraltar for the chance to spot dolphins.

Unlike dolphins, you don't have to search for them – they come looking for you, especially if you're holding food.'The fun kicks off with a boat trip in the bay to look out for dolphins. Three species – bottlenose, common and striped – are known to frolic in these waters. Then, back on dry land, head for a guided minibus tour of the Rock of Gibraltar, which juts 426 metres above the Mediterranean. You'll stop at Europa Point, where there are many famous monuments, a mosque and a historic Christian shrine. Plus, you'll also visit the Rock's recently renovated St Michael's Cave, which now hosts an auditorium.At the Upper Rock nature reserve, you'll meet the free-roaming Barbary apes – Europe's only wild monkeys. Rosa adds, ‘There are about 300 monkeys on the Rock. A local legend says that if the monkeys disappear, Gibraltar will stop being British.' Back at ground level, Gibraltar's town centre makes a point of being more British than Britain itself. Head to Main Street, where many of the British high street chains have outlets, for a mooch around its duty-free shops.
