In the incredible landscape of Tabernas desert, this Western City, recalls the "Wild West". Mini Hollywood at Tabernas is 30 kilometres away from Almería. The amazing desert landscape of inland Almería has provided the location for a number of famous films. Peter O'Toole's Lawrence of Arabia was shot here and Mini Hollywood provided the set for a number of westerns including A Fistful of Dollars. The film set is now open as a tourist attraction, and visitors can even stop for a drink in the same saloon as Clint Eastwood.

Cuevas de Sorvas

First we spend an hour and a half visiting the caves will visit the caves. These are "natural" caves without man-made corridors or electric light. Only galleries perfectly shaped by the erosion of water and replete with crystals that shine when hit by the lights of our helmets. It is the most important alabaster Karst in Europe. At all times we are accompanied by an expert caver. After the tour, we will move on to the white town of Sorbas which seems to emerge out of the river waters, with houses suspended on the edge of the cliff. We will have the opportunity to admire their pottery and lastly we will also take a "tapa".
