Join our Free Tour in Cadiz and discover the oldest city in the West. Its Phoenician, Roman, Muslim and Christian origins have made it a city with a long history of historical events that we would like you to be part of.
We will start in the Plaza de San Juan de Dios, an emblematic place of the city, located next to the Town Hall. We will continue through the Plaza de la Catedral, where we will find one of the most important monuments of Cadiz, the Cathedral of Santa Cruz sobre las Aguas, a spectacular building from the 18th and 19th centuries, where baroque and neoclassical styles are combined. A few steps from the Cathedral is the Plaza de las Flores, one of the most colourful and busiest squares in the city, famous for its flower shops.
Afterwards, we will visit the Mercado de Abastos, where you can enjoy a wide variety of fresh produce. Next, we will walk along the most important street of Cádiz, the Calle Ancha, where you will find elegant buildings and some of the main commercial shops.
Finally, we will go to the La Viña neighbourhood, a seafaring neighbourhood, whose name is related to its past as a vine-growing area, and where one of the most important buildings of the Carnival of Cádiz, the Teatro de Falla, with its striking red brick façade, is currently located.
We finish our Free Tour Cadiz at the most popular beach in the city, the Caleta beach, framed by the Castles of San Sebastian and Santa Catalina. From here, we will remember that natural harbour where Phoenician, Carthaginian and Roman ships anchored. It has also been and still is a source of inspiration for musicians and poets.
We have created different schedules that will allow you to enjoy your trip to Cadiz. We don’t want you to miss out on discovering any corner of this wonderful city, so every day we will offer different options in our Guided Tour in Cadiz. During the morning, the tours take place every day at 10:30h in Spanish and English, and in the afternoon, in Spanish at 17:00h, (except in summer when the tour starts at 20:00h).
The Free Tour is free, so there is no set price. We prefer that you determine the price of the tour once it is finished, depending on the guide’s effort and your satisfaction at the end of the route.
The tour will start at Plaza San Juan de Dios, next to the statue of Moret monument. You will be able to identify us by our blue OWAY Tours umbrella.

Contratamos el free tour de Oway Tours para conocer Cádiz. Nuestra guía nos estuvo contando la historia de esta ciudad de forma muy amena y agradable a través de un recorrido por lugares emblemáticos. Además, a veces charlaba con nosotros un poco lo cual se agradece. Se nos hicieron cortas las 2 horas y algo que duró el tour. Recomiendo esta empresa sin duda. Seriedad, profesionalidad, formalidad y amabilidad.
