Spain Exploration with Ham & Cheese Factories

Seville, the city renowned for its vibrancy and artistic spirit, welcomes you with open arms. Once you touch down, be transported to your hotel for check-in and have the rest of the day at leisure.

If time permits, you can go out and explore the UNESCO-listed Real Alcazar of Seville or discover the history of the city's Golden Age at Seville Cathedral on your own. Alternatively, join a small group walking tour in the evening to try some famous Andalusian cuisine like ham, fresh fried fish, and olive oil.

Spend a full day in the stunning Sierra de Aracena, a wooded, low-lying mountain range about a 1.5-hour drive from Seville. Covering with an abundance of Mediterranean vegetation such as cork and oak, this area is the ideal habitat for Iberian pigs. Visit a family-run farm here to discover the secrets of Iberian Ham, a real national treasure of Spain. Stroll around the pasture to learn how their lifestyle and feed create their unique flavor, and visit a ham dryer to know how they become tasty hams.

A day of flavors awaits in Cordoba's countryside. Embark on a journey into the origins of Spain's culinary traditions with a visit to a historic olive mill. Learn the time-honored process of pressing ripe olives into a golden elixir as you sample varieties of delicacies. Afterward, explore an old wine cellar with wine tasting. Descend into a maze of barrels that have produced wine for over 350 years, while an expert guide shares the vineyard's secrets of growing grapes on the sun-drenched slopes.

As your Andalusian adventure comes to an end, the glories of Andalusia have forever imprinted themselves on your heart. Enjoy your free time before heading to the airport or the railway station.
