The White Villages of Arcos de la Frontera
Tour Highlights
Visit the white washed village
of Acros de la Frontera.
The village was declared as national historic monument in 1962 and seems to
defy the law of gravity as it perches precariously on the edge of cliff that
overlooks the Guadalte valley below. Your guide will take you on a tour of this
picturesque village with its charming cobbled stone plazas, Baroque churches
and white washed houses adorned with colourful mosaic tiles.
