    Experience the Taste of Spain. Food and wine are the foundations for all our trips because they are an integral part of the local economy and society in the areas we visit. The Spanish take great pride in their local dishes and wines and our tours give you the chance to see why. Whether you try an "Arroz al Horno"(A baked rice recipe), a vegetable "Paella" or "Gazpachos"( a game based pasta type dish) accompanied by a smooth local red wine you will taste an amazing selection of interesting food on one of our food and wine tours in Spain. For example The Borgias Tour offers you the chance to visit and get to know the elegant and historic medieval town of Xativa, the birth place of the infamous Borgia Popes Calixtus III and Alexander VI together with the opportunity to experience some great food in an interesting choice of famed local restaurants. We will also spend two nights in the spectacular mountain town of Bocairent, where the local food is excellent. This holiday also includes some picturesque short walks to walk off a few of the calories! Enjoy your short breaks in Spain!
  • History &Nature - Walking

    Our idea for all our trips is to combine good food and wine with other aspects of Spanish Culture. As the area around Xativa is steeped in history we include several visits to historical buildings or monuments in most of our tours. Fortunately these monuments/remains are in beautiful natural settings that make visiting them fascinating from a nature lovers point of view as well as an historical one. A good example of this is one of our Walking holidays in Spain: The Iberos(Iberians) Tour which offers a delightful combination of history, nature and walking with some excellent food and wine. There is more walking than on the other trips and an interesting historical slant with visits to two fascinating remains of "pueblos iberos" which are Iberian fortified towns dated around 400 BC. The "Iberos" were warrior tribes that inhabited southern Spain before the Romans invaded. This tour offers the possibility of seeing wildlife, especially birds of prey. Enjoy your short breaks in Spain!
