  • Welcome to a new travel vlog from Ronda, Spain! Today, I took a day trip to Ronda, Spain to explore this charming town and share with you a Ronda, Spain walking tour. In this Ronda Spain Vlog I will show you the charming old town of Ronda, the impressive El Tajo Gorge, and even visit the new city of Ronda Spain!
    To start off the day, I climbed the main church in Ronda, the Santa Maria Church (Iglesia de Santa Maria la Mayor) for incredible views of the city. From the top of the church, you can see all of the beautiful white washed homes with incredible views of the surrounding mountains. After visiting the top of the Santa Maria Church, I made my way to the Old Bridge, also called Puente Viejo. The Old Bridge is a beautiful stone bridge that is the perfect spot for a good picture!
    Next up on my Ronda Spain walking tour, I walk over the New Bridge (Puente Nuevo) and hike down for amazing views of the El Tajo Gorge. The El Tajo Gorge is over 100 meters, or over 300 feet deep, and hiking down the gorge is an absolute must on your day trip to Ronda Spain. As you begin hiking down the El Tajo Gorge, you will be rewarded with amazing views of the New Bridge (Puente Nuevo) of Ronda, Spain. The New Bridge is absolutely spectacular, with beautiful arches and even a waterfall at the bottom! I had to showcase the beautiful views of the New Bridge in my Ronda Spain Vlog!
    Next up on my Ronda Spain walking tour, I walk across the new bridge, which connects the old city and the new city. My next stop on my Ronda Spain Vlog was to visit the Plaza Del Socorro in the new town. The Plaza del Socorro is a beautiful plaza in the center of Ronda’s new town, lined with tons of charming cafes and restaurants. Next on my day trip to Ronda Spain, I walk just a few minutes away to sip a coffee on a rooftop hotel overlooking the Plaza de Toros. The Plaza de Toros in Ronda, Spain is absolutely massive and is a beautiful site to see!
    After visiting the Plaza de Toros, I head to Alameda del Tajo Park, which is a calm, green park, perfect to escape the sun and relax a bit. At one end of the park you have incredible views of the mountains surrounding Ronda, Spain. My last stop on my Ronda Spain Vlog was to walk through the main pedestrian street in Ronda called Calle Espinel. I end my Ronda Spain walking tour strolling Calle Espinel, window shopping and taking in all of the sights.
    I hope you enjoyed my Ronda Spain walking tour and my day trip to Ronda! Ronda is a beautiful city with tons of nature and a tranquil and charming old town!

    just got back. What a city. I liked northern ing Spain the best. However, Ronda and Setenil de las bodegas were priceless. Expect a good amount of tourists in Ronda in the busy months. Oh, driving in Ronda is rough! The streets are so narrow and there's barely any parking.

    I spent a week in Ronda in the first week of September. I came for the bullfight. This video captures everything I did except go up in the Santa Maria church tower. Matt gets it exactly right. Love this town, its restaurants and shops and buildings and of course the new bridge. I stayed at the Hotel Don Miguel, right on the new bridge. This is family owned and has rooms with a small balcony that looks out on the new bridge day and night- worth the price of the room by far. They have a nice restaurant and bar on the lower balcony area of the hotel overlooking the bridge as well.

    Dear Matt,
    I have seen in your video that you visited Ronda from Malaga by train.
    Could you share the timetable with me for the train between Malaga and Ronda?
    And if you have any experience about the Caminito Del Rey from Malaga by public transport I would be also grateful for that.

    Jews should reconsider going to Spain. There have been demonstrations against Jews (and Israel) in Spain. One of their legislators accused Israel of genocide. I don't know how safe Jews will be in Spain. Perhaps they should stay away.
