About this activity

Following a morning pickup from your Seville hotel, meet your guide and hop aboard your air-conditioned coach for the 1-hour drive to nearby Jerez. Take your seat in comfort and settle in as the rolling Spanish countryside flicks past outside.

On arrival in Jerez, visit a local winery and gain insight into the region’s rich winemaking heritage. Admire the rolling vineyards and rows of casks, learn of the traditions and techniques in use from grape to glass and sample the wine for yourself during a tasting session.

Continue on to the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art and enjoy a performance of the ‘How Andalusian Horses Dance’ show. The performance features choreography adapted from the training exercises of classical dressage, incorporating traditional Spanish music and costumes dating back to the 18th century. Marvel as the horses and riders dance together in a celebration of artistic creativity, harmony and color, accompanied by the rhythmic beat of traditional Spanish music.

When the curtains close on the show, continue on by coach to Cádiz. Enjoy a little free time to wander the streets and soak up the sunshine at your leisure, and perhaps find a local café or restaurant for lunch (own expense).

After, join a sightseeing trip and enjoy a panoramic tour of Cádiz, the oldest populated city in Europe. Cádiz sits on a narrow spit of land off the Andalusian coast and boasts a fascinating history and heritage. Discover ancient corners of the Old Town such as La Viña and Santa María and take in spectacular coastal views.

When your bus tour of Cádiz comes to an end at around 5pm, take the 1.5-hour journey back to your Seville hotel to conclude your tour.

The Andalusian Horse Show was extremely impressive and should not be missed. Cardiz even though not as impressive as Cardoba and Seville is still very picturesque to visit if you have time. The tour guide Antonio made the day trip very enjoyable and his local knowledge was unlimited. Highly recommended.

Very nice tour, but need more down time to shop at sites visited if wanted.

An interesting well balanced trip. The horse show was brilliant, even without being a horsey person. My only criticism would be about the intermittent microphone on the coach which was annoying. Two hours in Cadiz was enough to get a feel about the it - a lovely place.

The horse show was great. The rest of the trip was just ok or boring. The guide spent more time talking in Spanish to everyone else and very little time for the English speaking guests. Plus, she was hard to understand. So, most of the trip was not very memorable as we didn't have much of a guide.

Rich programme, great places, reasonable tour management. The coach tour on the beach in Cadiz is poor experience however.

It was hot, of course, it's Spain. It would have been good to give out water like other tours do. Also we were dropped off in Cadiz and told we could purchase a map at the visitors center. It would have been good to provide maps. I paid a lot for a tour of a winery and the horse show. The guide, Jose, was friendly and had a good personality. But I could have saved my money and taken a bus to Cadiz and Jerez and Our guide, Jose, was very nice and had a friendly personality. The tour of the winery was disappointing. But the horse show was amazing. However, if you were to do it again. I would take a bus to Jerez and buy a tour of the horse show. Maybe I would have gotten more information about the school and the horses. I thought for the cost of this tour we would get a little more. For example, it was very hot, normal for Spain, yet no water bottles were previded. I Our guide, Jose, was friendly and had a nice personality. The horse show was amazing. However, I didn't need to pay so much of this tour, I could have just got tickets for the horse show. I would have liked some information about the school and the horses besides the show. I found the wine tour boring. I have experienced wine tasting many, many times. This was the worst. Two things that I really didn't like were: no water and no maps. It was hot, of course, it is Spain. Yet no water bottles were supplied. I have never been on a tour where water was not provided. Also when we were dropped off in Cadiz no maps were provided. When asked for a map, we were told we could buy one at the information booth. This tour was disappointing and way over priced.

This was one of our best trips out from Seville. The Royal Equestrian School at Jerez is amazing. The show of Spanish Haute Ecole is superb. Being a polo-player and horseman I found it to be truly spectacular. Far better than the more well known Vienna Spanische Hofreitschule. Our guide was very knowledgeable and kept us interested throughout the journey thru beautiful countryside with amazing insights. She is seen in the picture next to me.
