Overview

Live Cuenca with an open heart.
More than an excursion, it is a journey for the senses: history, wine, nature and excitement in one day. In an intimate group of up to 8 people, we will move away from conventional tourism to discover the soul of this gem between mountains.

Cuenca reveals itself as a whisper of stone and air, with its medieval charm and dreamy landscapes. You will walk through streets that keep centuries of history, admire the Cathedral of St. Mary and St. Julian and the Hanging Houses, suspended over the void. From St. Paul's Bridge, the views will steal your breath.

We will taste the local essence in a traditional restaurant (each pays for its consumption).

As evening falls, the wine will take us to a vineyard, where earth and passion merge. Between barrels and grape aromas, you will live an exclusive tasting and discover the secrets that give life to each bottle.

An experience for those who seek to feel, not just look, and find themselves perhaps in the soul of Cuenca.

Casas Colgadas

The Hanging Houses of Cuenca are one of the most emblematic icons of the city and an impressive example of medieval architecture. Built between the 14th and 15th centuries, these houses appear to defy gravity by peeking over the edge of a cliff that overlooks the Huecar River. Originally there were many more, but today three are preserved. We can admire its wooden balconies that offer spectacular and unique views of the natural environment, creating a harmonious combination of historical heritage and landscape beauty.
