Private Tour: Agua Amarga and Carboneras
Your private tour heads towards the Mesa de Roldán, stopping on the way at a panoramic viewpoint with spectacular coastal views and excellent photo opportunities. We travel to the top of the Mesa de Roldán, where there is an impressive lighthouse dating from the nineteenth century and a historic defensive tower that was used in the filming of Game of Thrones. From this vantage point, we also take in spectacular panoramic views down the coast and across the Cabo de Gata Natural Park.
Next, we continue to the pretty village of Agua Amarga, where we explore the picturesque streets and picture-perfect beachfront.
Afterwards, we make the short drive to Carboneras to experience the atmosphere of this traditional fishing village and discover its castle and the cinematographic history of the village. You may choose to enjoy lunch in a local bar or restaurant (not included in the tour fee) before we return to your accommodation, but not before making one enchanting surprise stop along the way. The pace can be adapted to your private group and the conditions on the day.
