A Relaxing Journey into Culture, History and Beauty of Southern Spain. - Carlos was the best tour host we’ve ever had. He was well versed on the history and culture of these towns. More importantly, he catered it to how much we were interested in, which in our case was a lot!
In my experience, what makes a tour or rural, small town Europe come alive is its history and why these areas became to be the way they are in this modern time. Carlos talked about how these villages came to be with each takeover of Iberia and how these villages current people have maintained its history as younger generations move out to the cities and then back.
Carlos also had tons of knowledge of the ecology of the area, which is important to locals and park system around these towns that protect it.
The best compliment of a tour host I can give is that by the end of the tour, he felt like a friend you want to keep in touch with. Carlos absolutely left us with this.
Finally, he is a big NBA basketball fan, so if you are, he will gladly talk about it as much as you’d like! 😉

Great tour in Ronda and the surrounding white villages - The tour covers some of the best sights of the white villages and Ronda. Our guide Juanra was very knowledgeable. He shared the historical and geological importance of the castles and white villages along the way, and showed us several hidden gems in Ronda. Very friendly. Highly recommend!

Great Experience with Not Just a Tourist - We scheduled a tour with Not Just a Tourist to go to Ronda with a small intimate tour. Oscar was our guide and he was phenomenal! He was very informative and knew all the answers to our questions. Even where Ronda got its name. Oscar was fun, enlightening and took great care of us. If you are planning a trip to Seville book a guided tour with Not Just A Tourist and book it with Oscar! We had a wonderful experience. A small tour is the way to go. It cost more money but absolutely worth every penny!

Fun day trip from Sevilla - Oscar picked the four of us up in Sevilla and took us to Ronda via two other white villages where he encouraged us to take our time and gave us some history. He was happy to answer any questions we had and never rushed us. He was very knowledgeable. Ronda has such an interesting history! The bridge is beautiful! He was also willing to help us with translation at the shops there. A great trip!

Trip to the White villages in Andalusia- Las Arcos de Frontera, Ronda and Sentinel - Our guide Oscar from ‘Not just a Tourist’ was terrific. Patient, knowledgeable, an epicurean and willing to make the trip as flexible to our needs as possible. We had him for the entire day. He took us to see amazing views of these three very different White villages. He was a great conversationalist very aware of current Spanish and world issues. Discussing those made the long drives more pleasant

White Villages and Ronda - From the initial booking with Masha to the tour with Carlos, everything was seamless. We had a wonderful day on a private tour of the White Villages and Ronda with
Carlos. We stopped for breakfast in Zahara, had a lovely time in Sentinel, and ended our tour in Ronda. After touring Spanish cities and the bustling Feria in Seville, it was a treat to see the countryside.

White villages, history, olive oil & wine and a glimpse of the essence of Spain - We had a wonderful day touring the white villages and Ronda. Our guide Carlos did a great job of explaining the history along the way and giving us an experience of the local culture. We toured an olive oil factory that is also a place with many bullfighting artifacts and went to a very special winery. We ended the day in Ronda and learned about the beginnings of bullfighting in Spain and the rich history of the city. I would highly recommended this tour you won’t be disappointed!

A wonderfully historic town - While the main draw to Ronda is the 'new' bridge, the history of the settlement there and the other sites made this a stunning visit. Our guide, Ramon, was very informative about the early settlement by Arabs to the present day and knew the right places to go to show the development over the centuries.

A relaxing & wonderful experience to White Villages & Ronda. - It was a nice, relaxing day trip to the White Villages. We started the tour, with a stop for pictures, overlooking the White Villages from the top. Then, we visited Zahara de la Sierra, followed by Grazalema and Ronda next. We enjoy a brief morning coffee break at Zahara, followed by lunch Grazalema - both village are less busy. More time spent at Ronda, where we managed walk 3/4 of village after completing visit to Puente Nuevo for some photos. Expected to walk lost in Ronda, a comfortable pair of sneakers is recommended.
