Top Experiences
Jerez Sherry
The ancient town of Jerez is Andalusia’s fifth largest city and is most famous for its fortified wine, known as sherry. Some say that the word 'sherry' was a mispronunciation of 'Jerez' by the early British visitors who couldn’t pronounce the Spanish 'J'.
Jerez Horses
As well as sherry, Jerez is famous for being the home of the revered Andalusian School of Equestrian Art. This iconic institution is devoted to conserving the ancestral abilities of the Andalusian horse and maintaining the classical traditions of Spanish baroque horsemanship.
Cádiz Tapas
The myths about the origins of tapas are as varied and plentiful as the flavourings of this bite-sized Spanish morsel. However, many believe this staple of Spanish cuisine originated in Cádiz after a visit from Alfonso XIII. So popular is this style of eating that, today, on most menus, everything is available in a tapas-sized portion.
