The Arab-Muslim legacy of the city of Ronda is one of its greatest treasures. It was the Andalusians who transformed Ronda from a small fortification of Ibero-Roman origin into one of the main cities of Al-Andalus. Ronda was home to important Andalusian poets, mystics, and engineers. It also became an independent kingdom and served as the main defensive bastion of the borders of the Kingdom of Granada against the Kingdom of Castile. All this historical importance is reflected in its material legacy: spectacular palaces, underground mines, imposing walls, ancient minarets, and incredible Arab baths.
 
This is undoubtedly the most interesting tour we offer, as it reveals a lesser-known side of the City of the Tajo to visitors. The visit will also be led by a historian-guide who is an expert in the history of al-Andalus.
 
The tour begins in Plaza María Auxiliadora, from where you can see the walls of the Albacara. We will continue to the Mondragón Palace, the former residence of the Andalusian governors. We will continue through the narrow streets of the medina until we reach Plaza Duquesa de Parcent, the former "alcaicería" (altitude square) and the location of the city's main mosque, now the Church of Santa Maria la Mayor. We will then skirt the remains of the old Alcazaba (fortress) until we reach the gates of the Almocabar (altitude square). We will re-enter the "upper suburb" of the city, following a path that runs along the walls of "La Cijara" (the city's highest quarter) until we reach the Arab baths, among the best preserved in Spain. We will ascend back to the medina via the steps of the Arab Bridge, and finally, we will ascend through the hanging gardens of "Cuenca," where we will see spectacular palaces, ending with a sensational view of the Puente Nuevo (New Bridge). We will end the tour at Plaza del Socorro.
 
The tour lasts approximately two hours. It is very important to wear comfortable shoes due to the characteristics of the streets in Ronda's old town. The route is not suitable for people with reduced mobility due to the climb up several flights of stairs. For the same reason, it is also not suitable for people with strollers.
