Enjoy a private tour to the White Towns of Andalusia.
The White Towns of Andalusia are a series of towns in southern Spain, mostly within Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park. All of the villages are characterized by white washed walls and red or brown tiled roofs.
Some say that these villages paint the white house to ward off the intense summer heat that affects mainly the towns along the Sierra de Grazalema. But keep whitewashed houses is a very ancient custom in the Mediterranean to disinfect the environment in the plague epidemic period.
The lime mixed with water produces a high heat kill any microorganism. Therefore, people living in cities with houses "whitewashed" ended up escaping more disease than those who did not.
Today times have changed, but the tradition is still alive, somehow, marking the time to paint the facades ( "whitewashed"). So much so that in some pueblos blancos, you can paint the exteriors of homes without taxes.

Our guide, Gabriella, was great. We loved hearing about Spanish life. She shared lots of information and took us to some very cool cities. Our favorite part was learned about Spanish culture and seeing Spain away from tourists.

My wife and I had a wonderful day visiting the White Towns. Thanks to our excellent driver/guide, we experienced the beauty and culture of Spain away from crowds of tourists. It was a perfect day.

Totally enjoyable, and I felt looked after the whole time. There’s quite a bit of driving needed during the day, This was expertly handled by Juan, leaving the charismatic guide, Gabriella, to explain everything about the region, it’s culture, it’s history, it’s food... in fact everything you could ask about. What I enjoyed the most was being taken to selected vantage points, and being given time to take in the views. The day was full of laughs, as well as learning, all taken at a relaxed pace. Thank you to both Juan and Gabrielle.
