Day 1 ~ Welcome to Andalusia

Arrival at Costa del Sol Airport in Málaga (AGP). The first day of this fun trip, we start in Málaga. In the old part of Malaga, we start with a city walk accompanied by a local guide who tells you everything about this beautiful city. The walk takes you past Malaga's Alcazaba and, among other things, the Cathedral of this beautiful city. Afterwards, there is a delicious light lunch with local typical Spanish products. After lunch, we go to the property for this night, a typical Spanish Casa Rural. After checking in and coming “home”, there is time for yourself. This evening's dinner is in one of Jan Gerard's favorite restaurants in Málaga.

Day 2 ~ Mercado Central & 3-course festive menu

After a delicious typical Spanish breakfast, we visit the Picasso museum in Málaga in the morning. Here you can enjoy the beautiful ongoing exhibitions and exhibitions by and about this world-famous painter, a must go when you're in Malaga. After this visit, we drive to Ronda and join us for a delicious lunch along the way. Arriving in Ronda and having checked into the Casa Rural where we are staying these days, Jan Gerard takes you to Ronda's Puente Nuevo and then there is an opportunity to stroll through Ronda's lovely shops and boutiques or to have a lovely terrace. This evening, dinner is in a tapas restaurant that is one of the best in Ronda.

Day 3 ~ Masterclass & Culinary Celebration

After breakfast, a local guide will surprise us with a lovely city walk through Ronda, all the highlights of this beautiful city are covered and the walk takes about two hours. For lunch, this afternoon, we will go to the two Michelin** star restaurant Bardal where top chef Benito Gómez and his team will completely pamper us with their delicious delicious dishes. Restaurant Bardal is located in the old part of Ronda near the Plaza de Toros. In the evening, you can enjoy all the impressions and flavors gained at restaurant Bardal on your own, relax in the Casa Rural or perhaps take a walk.

Day 4 ~ Goodbye to Andalusia
