10 Things to do for Honeymoon in Jerez De La Frontera That You Shouldn't Miss

January 19, 2022 Nobuko Falco

Southwest of Seville, Jerez is a well-heeled place. It’s the home of the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art and its famous dancing horses; if you’re on a budget or can’t be there for a formal performance, it’s worth dropping in to catch a morning training session. The other major reason to visit Jerez is to sample its most famous product—sherry. You can do this at a number of bodegas associated with the world’s best-known brands, including Bodegas Tio Pepe, The House of Sandeman, Jerez, and Pedro Domecq. They’ll soon have you knowing your amontillado from your oloroso. There’s also an Alcázar, dating back to the time of the Almohads, which features a small mosque, now the chapel of Santa María Real.

We booked this tour online having seen some fantastic reviews and were also advised not to go on the tours of the big Bodegas (that's up to you but a little research will tell you why !!) .. Being out of season in February was great as we were the only people on the tour which was brilliantly taken by Valentina who was really really great, friendly and very informative .. can't recommend her highly enough !! And at the end we had 6 different sherries to try along with some fab tapas !! What was supposed to be an hour's tour turned into an hour and half as we were not pressured at all to finish our tasting as we chatted to Valentina about the history of the Bodega, Jerez .. the City and life in general in the area .. thoroughly recommended !!! Ooh and bought a bottle of Fino for us and went back the next day to the shop they have to buy another bottle for friends .. who are connoisseurs and they loved the Fino !! Enough said !!

Fundacion Real Escuela Andaluza del Arte Ecuestre

The Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art Foundation, in Jerez de la Frontera, is famous all over the world for its show called "How the Andalusian Horses Dance", a unique exhibition of horsemanship which both exhibits and summarises the work which the institution has carried out since its establishment. Although the show "How the Andalusian Horses Dance" may be considered the highest attainment of the School's work, there are other aspects which are regarded as equally, or even more important, for the Institution. Among these, we would like to highlight its role as a social and cultural vehicle for our equestrian heritage, the selection and promotion of horses, the training of Haute Ecole riders, the preservation and promotion of Classical and Country Dressage (Doma Vaquera), maintaining the prestige of our horsemanship, the breed of our Spanish horses, our traditions and culture. Furthermore, the show enables the Royal School to play host for the Province of Cadiz and to act as ambassadors abroad on annual tours to various foreign countries. In addition to the show, you might enjoy a visit to our training facilities as well as the Museum of Equestrian Art and the Carriage Museum.

I spent a very relaxing few hours here while my husband looked after our baby. It was so relaxing and I was the only one in there! Beautiful old building, felt very atmospheric. Service was great at reception and the massage was very relaxing. It is fairly expensive but I feel its worth it for a special experience. Ideal for couples. I'd love to go back with my husband some day.

I had the most delightful 5 sherry and 1 vermouth tasting tour of this spectacular Bodega. Carmen, our guide, was able to answer all our varied questions in excellent English. I learned, and have remembered so much and now appreciate Sherry wine so much more. The Palo Cortado was spectacular! Thank you Carmen and hope you all keep well.

We booked the Saturday tour and show online and the price was very reasonable for what we experienced on the day. Location is not that good to find with a SAT NAV, so take your time to plan your route if you are driving there. If you have printed off your online ticket confirmations with your seat numbers on, you do not need to queue at the ticket office, go directly to the attraction entrance and show your booking confirmations. Once inside you will be split into groups according to your language. Our guide was Vicky who was excellent. The tour explains the history of the stud farm and day to day running. You will be able to stroke the horses, as they are very calm and friendly. The horses are clearly very well cared for by the staff. The show takes place in the second half of the visit and was very good. There are toilet facilities, a shop for souvenirs and refreshments are available. There is no cafe or restaurant. I would highly recommend this attraction.
