Explore two of the most visited spots in southern Andalusia with this booking: Aracena and the Riotinto mines. On a tour lasting around 10 hours, you’ll have the chance to discover this part of Andalusia, rich in history, thanks to the explanations of a professional guide.

A coach will provide return transport from Seville to Aracena and the Riotinto mines, situated over an hour’s drive from the Andalusian capital.

With this booking, you’ll receive tickets for these three sites:

  • Gruta de las Maravillas: the Gruta de las Maravillas is a cave of great beauty, carved out over the centuries by nature itself, and one of the best-preserved in the world. This network of galleries, chambers, lakes and underground watercourses inside the Cerro del Castillo was formed in Palaeozoic limestone within a karst system
  • Riotinto Mining Park: this park offers visitors a journey back to 19th-century history along a river that is unique in the world due to the colour and composition of its waters, making it feel like a walk on another planet.
  • The Priory Church of El Castillo: this Catholic church was declared a Historic-Artistic Monument and part of the National Artistic Heritage; it is situated on the hill that houses the Gruta de las Maravillas (Grotto of Wonders) within it. It is the oldest church in Aracena.

What’s more, during the tour, you’ll have the chance to take some wonderful photos of the natural landscape surrounding this part of Andalusia.

    Very good tour, it turned out to be much more entertaining and interesting than I expected. I highly recommend it, although it's a pity they don't include any snacks.
