地点介绍

The proud city of Cádiz sits at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River. As the gateway to the Mediterranean, it is touted as the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in Europe, with its dominant families claiming ancestry dating back to Roman times, when the city was called Ceret, and the wine produced was Vinum Ceretensis. From Phoenicians to Iberians, Romans to Moors, Cádiz had its fair share of invaders. It is no wonder its skyline is dotted with 120 watchtowers, including the 150-foot-tall Torre Tavira, used for spotting sails as they appeared on the horizon – often the first sign of the return of long-lost explorers. A Spanish naval base even today, it was off the coast of Cádiz at Cape Trafalgar where the British won the battle of the same name over Napoleon’s fleet, with the loss of Horatio Nelson. It was from Cádiz where Christopher Columbus set sail to discover the ‘new world’. And it was in Cádiz harbour where Sir Francis Drake sacked and burned so many ships that he delayed Spain’s attempt at invading England’s by at least a year and changed the course of world history. Personalise your exploration with our included ‘Your Choice’ experiences. Option 1 – Morning experience: Jerez – Spain’s Sherry Obsession Head west to the coastal town of Jerez to discover a rich mix of Islamic and Christian monuments surrounding the Alcázar, as we journey through the region’s history and learn how each ruling empire left a lasting impression on the city’s culture. It is the fortified wine, known worldwide as sherry, which has dictated the fate of Jerez. Introduced by the Phoenicians in 1100 BCE, this popular wine has brought both wealth and strife. Jerez’s bodegas and local rural wineries remain the world’s largest producers of sherry, which although considered by some as a wine that has seen better days, is as popular in Spain today as it was in centuries past. After a short walk of the historic centre of Jerez, we spend time with a wine expert who will teach us how to differentiate good wine from bad wine, while sampling a few good wines for ourselves. Option 2 - Morning experience: A Taste of Cádiz The heart of Cádiz is the whitewashed Casco Antiguo, where a maze of narrow streets takes us past plazas, baroque churches and 18th century merchant houses, but it is the old port of Cádiz which brought riches to the town. Known as the Golden Age of Cádiz, goods hailing from all four corners of the world crossed paths here, with the trade coming from the Americas a particular favourite. Modern day Cádiz trades a different kettle of fish – literally. Situated on the Strait of Gibraltar, Cádiz is on the path of the bluefin tuna’s seasonal pilgrimage as they pass through the Mediterranean to mate. This locally guided culinary adventure combines history with Andalusia's coastal flavours, offering a delicious insight into Spain's gastronomic story. Option 3 – Full-day experience: Walking the Heart of Seville Driving 1.5 hours north from Cadiz we find Andalusia’s colourful capital of Seville. Our local guide tells a tale of Seville on this extensive walking tour, with stories of history’s famed conquerors, stories of the ‘New World,’ and a clash of cultures as compelling as the buildings we visit. This walking tour of Seville’s UNESCO World Heritage sites begins with the Alcázar. Built in the 14th century in Mudejar style, the Alcázar is the oldest royal residence in Europe still in use. Islam and Christianity vied for power here, with Christianity asserting dominance by constructing Europe’s third-largest cathedral directly over a 12th-century mosque. The largest Gothic structure in the world, the cathedral houses many notable figures. In 1899, 400 years after his death, the renowned explorer Christopher Columbus was finally laid to rest in Seville Cathedral, where our guide introduces us to this magnificent structure with time to pull up a pew.
