Cruise Ship PierSecrets of Cadiz
Experience more than 3000 years of history in just one tour. This Cadiz tour introduces you to Europe's oldest city, a city rich with attractions both modern and ancient. Here's your chance to travel back in time and watch history unfold for yourself.
Your tour begins at the cruise terminal, where you'll meet your guide. From there, you'll board an air-conditioned minibus and proceed toward the first of many points of interests. You will then head towards the outskirts of the city and go over the New Bridge over the ocean to embrace of view of the surrounding villages nearby. From there, you will continue onward to Campo Sur to witness the incredible La Caleta Beach. Although it's a tiny beach, it has served as a big inspiration to the likes of artists and writers like Paco Alba and Carlos Cano and was also the set of a famous secret agent movie! Other notable landmarks include Santa Catalina castle where your guide will take you for a visit. Walk through Genoves Park, the city botanical garden before stopping at Spain Square. Your old town visit will take you to Mina Square, Plaza de las Flores and Cadiz Cathedral among other sights.
The star of the Cadiz sightseeing tour, however, is the final stop: Populo. This medieval quarter that dates back to the 13th century and is widely known for its stone gates, which Christopher Columbus walked through to start his second journey to America. This is also where you will get to enter Cadiz Roman Theater! There's a lot of exploration to do on the 1.5 hour walking portion of your Cadiz tour, and after some free time you will get hungry.
At the conclusion of the tour, your licensed guide will take you to a private wine and cheese tasting event. You will be taken to a 360-degree roof top of a hotel, where they have a few different glasses of sherry (a traditional wine from Andalucia) and some locally made cheese! We utilize lifts to ascend rather than climbing stairs. What a great way to end your day!
The list of attractions above is by no means exclusive; there are dozens more that you will encounter throughout the extensive tour. For a comprehensive look at the city, make your reservation today.
