PRICE GUARANTEE

Experience Box Spain has teamed up with Olive Oil Tour to bring you these 2 tours Options :

- 3 hour Olive Oil tour
- 6 hour full day tour with lunch, olive oil tasting and wine tasting.

1. The 3 hour Olive Oil Tour is an excursion, leaving from Granada, to discover the world of the liquid gold!

The tour will take you through the beautiful country views of Granada's Vega, the Sierra Nevada and the charming Lecrin Valley. We will drive through countryside of olive and almond trees.

In a small white village of the Lecrin Valley, we will visit a beautifully preserved XV century oil mill; unique in Spain! We will see the oil extraction techniques that have been used for thousands of years until 1920. We will learn a little more about the different oils and their labels: organic, virgin, virgin extra, one single olive variety, acidity percentage, appellations of origin, etc.

Olive oil tasting: now let's enjoy tasting some of them! We'll taste some of the most representative oils and learn how to feel in different places of our palate, the bitterness, the spicy, and the fruity sensations, as well as other qualities and characteristics of olive oils.

At the same place, if you wish so, within an excellent selection of Andalusia’s best olive oils (the first productive region of the world), you can buy your favorite one, as well as other delicious local products such as wine, Serrano ham and cheese. You will also find unique pieces of Granada’s Taracea woodwork art.

2. OPTIONAL : Upgrade to a full day tour with olive oil and wine tasting, and lunch

If you tick this option here-under, your opt for a full-day (6h our) tour including lunch and wine tasting on top of the 3 hour tour detailled here-above.

A tasting of 4 different Andalusian wines: for interested people, we propose as an extra option, to experience tasting 4 different Andalusian wines: a white and a red from La Alpujarra, La Contraviesa and a Fino and Pedro Ximenez, from Montilla-Moriles (or Spanish wines, from La Rioja, Cataluña…). These wines will be served with 'tapas': Serrano ham and local cheese appetizers.

The tour keeps on through the beautiful Lecrin Valley. We will stop at a viewpoint to admire the multiple colors and perfumes of this hilly countryside.

It's time to eat! Let's go to the typical Andalusian restaurant: a 'Mesón', in a pretty village. The lunch will be a typical homemade Andalusian menu, including a starter (you can choose between: seafood soup, gazpacho, composed salad…), the main dish (either: paella, roast ham, fried fish and other local specialties…), a drink (wine, water or a fizzy drink), dessert and coffee.
