Visit of Jerez, horse show and wine tasting in a bodega

We will leave by coach for Jerez.

Known worldwide as the cradle of flamenco music, the city is also revered for its sherries, fine horses, and bull ranches. During a panoramic tour, you'll discover the 17-century Jerez de la Frontera Cathedral. The Baroque-style building has a rectangular plan with five naves.

The next site will be the Alcazar, which has retained much of its initial design. Built during the 11th and 12th centuries, this fortress-palace is one of the few examples of Almohad architecture in the Iberian Peninsula. Most of the area inside the fortress has been turned into a lovely garden.

We'll then visit a stud farm that raises magnificent Andalusian horses, and we'll enjoy a presentation of the equestrian arts the country is famous for. At the end of the show, we'll have a tasting of local products and wine in a bodega.

After our excursion, we'll return on board for lunch.
