What you can expect

The route begins in the Plaza del Arenal, a vibrant epicentre full of life and a meeting point since medieval times.
Discover the Alcázar, an imposing vestige of 12th-century Almohad architecture.At this point, we will admire the sturdy walls and the iconic entrance gate, while unraveling the secrets of the battles, alliances and legends that forged the destiny of Jerez.
Entering the interior of the Alcázar, we will immerse ourselves in a unique experience touring its various spaces: the majestic Mosque, the Palace of Villavicencio with its impressive views from the tower, the Arab baths and the Islamic-inspired gardens that evoke tranquility and splendour. This visit will transport you to daily life during the Andalusian period, mixed with the evolution of this fortress over the centuries.
We will head to the Cathedral Redoubt, a baroque jewel that combines Renaissance and neoclassical influences.
The tour continues to the Plaza del Arroyo, a charming place surrounded by stately palaces and marked by the tranquility of its surroundings. From there, we will walk to the Plaza de la Asunción, where the church of San Dionisio stands, a Gothic-Mudejar example, and the historic Cabildo Viejo, a window into Jerez's medieval past.
Our route culminates in the Consistorio de Jerez, a Renaissance building that reflects the power and grandeur of the city in its golden age. Here we will say goodbye to the tour celebrating the historical legacy of Jerez, leaving an unforgettable memory of its cultural and architectural essence.
