Seville · ANDALUSIAN HORSE SHOWS
Jerez and Córdoba both perform the classical high-school movements with Carthusian-bred stallions, on set days rather than daily. These 12 tickets and stable tours are compared on show day, on whether the training session is included, and on what the seat actually gets you.

“This is by far the best tour I did in all the countries I visited, it was so emotional to see the horses, the relationship between the horse and the rider, of course the flamenco dance as well. This was a lifetime experience. Well done. Worth every penny”

Royal Stables of Córdoba pairs precision dressage with flamenco dancing in a 1-hour show. English announcements, no photos allowed.
“This was really good and interesting. The dancers were quite impressive. It did appear that it is a show geared to tourists so the one thing we would have appreciated would have been a bit more explanation about the history of flamenco and the traditions around the dancing and singing and the interactions between the singers, dancers and guitarist. But on the whole we really enjoyed the show.”

“What a fantastic trip! Can't think of a more relaxed and enjoyable way to pack so much into one day! The tour of the Diez Merito site was fascinating, very informative and wonderfully presented by Maria in English and Spanish. The tasting of a wide range of sherry and brandy products was an excellent finale to the winery tour! Next, the Andalusian Horse show was a special treat - horses and their riders in breathtaking harmony! Finally, a chance to explore the architecture and history of Cadiz, together with it's many shops and bustling stalls around the fish market. Grateful thanks to Petra and Lola for managing the tour with…”
Full-day Seville trip to Jerez for authentic sherry tasting plus Cadiz, with optional Royal Andalusian horse show.
“Manuel is awesome. We initially had Manuel for our Jerez and Cadiz tour. He's super friendly and very funny, while providing very good explanations on history and the local area. Coincidentally, we'll be on another tour with him tomorrow to Gibraltar and we're very excited to have him lead us again.”
Seville to Jerez for a sherry bodega tour, tastings, and the Royal Equestrian Art show How the Horses Dance.
“Notre excursion a été un peu décevante. Rien à dire sur le chauffeur et le transport mais le rapport qualité prix final est moyen. La visite de la bodega est plutôt intéressante mais la dégustation proposée est la plus cheap. Si le spectacle de l'école d'équitation est magnifique les places proposées sont là aussi la catégorie basique et cela gâche un peu le moment. De plus aucun temps pour profiter des lieux. 30 à 45 mn seraient bienvenues en plus. Cette dernière visite peut facilement s'organiser seul en train depuis Séville ce que nous ferions rétrospectivement.”
Half-day Jerez tour with Andalusian horse show: historic landmarks, art-historian guide, and Royal Equestrian School tickets included.
“Rose was a great guide; knowledgeable and funny too. Easy meet point. Only downside is you have to walk to the horse school yourself with just a general direction; be sure to look it up first and put in your GPS. The show was great--beautiful horses and well trained. Overall 5 Stars”
