Other landmarks were highlighted on the way down. We walked through Santa Cruz which was beautiful & a real hidden gem. The old town was interesting and we finished in a bar with a tapas & drink.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 788 reviews · 1 day · from $28

“We came at opening and left by close. It was such a wonderful day. Seeing the zoo keepers looking after their animals, something you sadlydon't see often in the UK zoo's. The food was great value for money too. We walked about the zoo at least 3 times and each time had a different yet amazing interaction with the animals. Sadly as usual some ignorant brits (adults and children) ruined the experience with hitting the glass and screaming at the animals. It would be nice to have workers around to discourage such disgraceful behaviour.”

Few things to consider, this is about 85% historic tour with a good amount of walking and steps and it ends with 1 tapa and 1 glass of wine/beer. If you are looking for a tapas tour, don’t take this one. If you want a historic tour with a drink at the end. Enjoy!”
