Free Tour Ronda

The free tour of Ronda

In Ronda you can enjoy a journey among monuments and nature, bullfighters and bandits, but above all a charm that you will not let go. We offer you a Free Tour through its narrow streets so that you do not leave without seeing the impressive Tajo gorge, the history of Ronda and its legends. We will wait for you at the Paseo Blas Infante, from where we will start our route from the impressive Puente Nuevo to get the spectacular views of the Tajo of Ronda and its balconies hanging as an emblem of the city, located in a pass with more than 150 meters deep. From the landscape you will also be able to see the mountains that cover the horizon, the Serrania de Ronda. From the bridge we can observe a gorge of more than 100 meters deep over the Guadalevín river, being this the point of union between the historical area and the new city.

With this Tour you will be able to know the essential places of the city visiting the historical center, its most emblematic monuments, the vestiges that Celts, Phoenicians, Romans and Arabs. We will visit the most significant civil monument of Ronda, the Mondragon Palace. Although we will also see the Palace of the Moorish King, the Fountain of the Ocho Caños, the Church of Padre Jesús, the Arab Baths, the Palace of Salvatierra, the Minaret of San Sebastián, the Church of Santa María la Mayor, and many more. We will discover the impressive monument-sculpture of the bull of Lidia next to the Bullring.

Ronda has been characterized by being the first bullring in Spain and in carrying out the transformation of recreational bullfighting into a profession. Therefore, we will constantly see sculptures that remind us of the world of the bull, such as the tributes to Antonio Ordoñez, Cayetano Ordoñez or Pedro Romero. But these are not only some of the characters we will find, but also singers like Aniya la Gitana, or travellers who were surprised by the richness of Ronda. You will get to know the character of the city through the pillage, theft and rebellion that these lands have suffered since Roman times through bandits. All this and much more will bring you closer to the heart of a city that is unique in its natural characteristics and the history it carries behind it. We are waiting for you!
