Sunday: Afternoon transfer from the Sevilla train station at 4.30PM. Settle into your accommodations, a hotel in nearby downtown Carmona, enjoy a refreshing swim in the pool or an afternoon siesta. In the evening join the welcome dinner at the hotel restaurant “El Tabanco” with one of your hosts. The rest of the evening is free to explore or relax before the start of the ride the next day. Carmona is the oldest continuously inhabited village in Europe with narrow streets and fortified walls that hold the spirit of the Iberians, Phoenicians, Romans, Moors and other ancient peoples. Welcome to Epona
I cannot say enough good things about the trip outfitter and her string of wonderful, hardworking horses. These are well-schooled, sure-footed, trustworthy mounts who are eager to go to work each morning and are highly responsive to rein and leg cues. Although I don't like heights, I can honestly say that I never had a moment of fear, thanks to the steadiness and experience of the horse entrusted to me for the week. The guide is a competent, experienced tour leader and excellent cook. She prepared amazing picnic lunches, always accompanied by local wine.
