Great excursion - We recommend doing this really rewarding excursion! Our guide Sergio was exceptional, rich in knowledge and thanks to him we were able to see really great places we would not have been without knowing. The cave of wonders is also superb! Not to be missed:)

Amazing natural wonder and authentic restaurant experiences. - As a result from our good experience w/ the bike tour, we booked our private tour to Gruta de las Maravillas. It’s nice to change the scene from Seville to the small towns w/ a comfortable transportation. The underground cave is really a natural wonder. The limestone formations are so stunning, the “lake” water was so pure and clear. Our guide Nacho brought us to an authentic restaurant and helped us order food that he would normally eat. We feel that we are truly immersed to some local experiences.

Unforgettable experience and Driss is a legend - The tour was amazing. I have been on other tours before with this company and always had great experiences. Very professional, timely, polite and great trips and great value for money. This particular trip to the Rio Tinto river and mines was really funky to see a new part of the region, great for photographers with the mars like landscapes and the unbelievable beauty of the underground caves really do feel magical. However the tour was made so amazing by our fabulous tour guide - Driss. A bundle of joy and energy he was amazing at leading the group, entertaining and bringing us all together. On other trips it’s very normal for groups not to mix much and keep to themselves. But the group and Driss all grouped together, chatting and laughing the whole day and all sharing lunch together. Which for a solo traveler like myself that was really special and kinda rare. Driss was a delight, charming, extremely knowledgable and he really aimed to get the best experience for everyone and what they were wanting most from the trip. Overall a lovely trip and an incredible guide ! Can’t recommend enough (:

Riotinto & Aracena - Fun and interesting trip to the Rio Tinto mines and the caves in Aracena. Our guide Nacho was very friendly and entertaining, and knew about the history of Spain. Nice lunch in Aracena, and the red river and the caves were beautiful.

Excursion to the Rio Tinto and Aracena mines. - We were able to observe the Rio Tinto mines from different places. It was very impressive. We also visited the Castle of Aracena and the Grotto of Wonders. We had a great day. Our guide Sergio, was very friendly throughout. And he gave us a lot of interesting information. The day was short. We had a great time.

The caves at Aracena - Carlos (guide) and Lola (driver) make an excellent team. Carlos was very knowledgeable. The tour was well organised with plenty of stops for photo opportunities. The caves at Aracena are well worth a visit.

Visit to Minas Riotinto - The visit very interesting and complete. They need to better indicate where to go because the visit consisted of 5 activities and had to travel by car between them. For a full day and do something different. To avoid the hot season.

Be careful what you anticipate - Well, to be honest, apart from the incredible caves of Aracena, the rest of the trip proved mediocre. I would greatly advise any visitor with walking difficulties to avoid the cave complex due the number ( especially one section) of very demanding steps leading to one particular gallery. Another suggestion ( although available in the 'much-dismissed UK') is the availability of safety helmets - due to some sections proving quite low. As for general Aracena - well there's very little there apart from the caves. A cautionery note for my fellow British travellers - be aware of the overt discrimination shown in some eateries. We sat for thirty minutes and found ourselves totally ignored in favour of the Spanish diners being attended to long after our arrival. A very poor show. I advocate a packed lunch with a proper 'Blighty' thermos of tea!! Oh, and lastly, be aware of the 'stinking English' ubiquitous titular. Sine dubio Rick Sinclair

Too much wasted time. - Mine and caves were nice but too much wasted time. Could have done the tour in half the time and spent more time at the 2 major attractions. Would have paid the same price to do the tour in 5 hrs vs 10.
