Valencia Fallas – Filling Up Fast. A Must See 3 days at the most incredible fiesta with an enviably located 4* hotel B&B and all the hints and tips from us, so you experience it like a local and not like a first time tourist. This is the best way to get the most out of the best days of this Fiesta
Caravaca Folk Jamming. A wonderful way to experience the music and dance of these Cuadrillas, groups of non professionals, who jam in the streets. Staying in Caravaca, the 5th holy city of the Catholic Church with dinner, bed and breakfast, topping this off with a visit and tasting at a family owned award winning Jam Makers, a Menu del Dia and a stroll beside a river.
Aguilas Carnival & Hotel. A truly magical, mesmerising and memorable evening as the hundreds of feather clad, sequinned adorned participants dance to the intoxicating beat of the Carnival music. Made all the more enjoyable with a 4* hotel B&B just 40km, a visit with a local Carnival expert for the inside take on this tradition and all finished off with a Menu del Dia.
The Giant Crystal, a wonder of the natural world. A unique opportunity to visit the stunning crystal lined cavern which is the largest accessible Geode in the world. Starting with an introduction to the underground world at a Mining Museum, there is free time in Aguilas where the 4* hotel is located at the start of the beach front promenade and finishing with a Menu del Dia at a beach front Chinginguito.
Off the Beaten Track Almond Blossom - Just 5 rooms left. Staying in a stunningly located hotel, it is wall to wall scenery with a scenic drive through the candylike Almond Blossom and a walk beside a river which is lined by 60 sculptures. Combined with 3 menu del dias, an award winning Jam Tasting and Bodega Visit, this is an experience not to be missed.
