A fully guided, single-day experience for discerning riders: light breakfast and briefing; measured back-road riding with two hosted experiences—one mid-morning and one in the afternoon—plus coffee-and-conversation pauses, and an authentic Andalusian food lunch in a place with character. Every touchpoint—hosts, venues, timings—comes from our pre-vetted pool and is assigned to your date to align with the season and daylight, delivering a pre-curated version of the Script that feels intentional, unhurried and refined. Perfect for guests already staying on the Coast who wish to see the real inland in one precisely composed day.
For an overview of the Experiences we curate, please see “About the Experiences” in this section.
Start from the base in Mijas grounds and only run inland on scenic Andalusian back roads through white villages, rural estates and countryside viewpoints. The focus is on discovering how this land lives — its crafts, producers, heritage and seasonal traditions — from genuine people who actually do it.
Alcoholic drinks, personal insurance and travel to/from the starting point are not included.
For optional hire gear see Props (Equipment)
Cinematic Retro Rides curates hand-picked, small-group Experiences that reveal what Andalusia is truly made of—family-run vineyards with guided tastings, characterful olive mills producing exceptional extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO), heritage walkabouts through white-village lanes. Expect encounters with master luthiers crafting classic Spanish guitars, insights into equestrian culture and historic bull-ranch traditions, sensory tastings of Iberian produce, breathtaking bird’s-eye view of the vast Andalusian landscapes from a hot-air ballon, visits to traditional artisan workshops, unhurried mouth-watering lunches and dinners in places full of character.
Along the way—and always escorted by your fully bilingual EN–SP guide with an eye for detail—you’ll weave in local festivals, market stops, flamenco moments, characterful coffee breaks and magnificent back scenic roads and viewpoints—thoughtful, authentic, tastefully paced.
Every touchpoint is vetted for authenticity, hosted by genuine people, and timed to the season, so every experience feels immersive, refined and unmistakably Andalusian.
Please note that most Experiences are generally run by families and small local companies. The season and local calendars can affect the options available for some Experiences. All tours are thoroughly studied, meticulously and personally hand-crafted, and planned months in advance; details are then reconfirmed with hosts closer to the tour dates.
At Cinematic Retro Rides, we believe Experiences land best as a tasteful surprise, so we prefer not to reveal full details in advance. But if you need specifics before your tour, please contact us a few weeks or days in advance and we will gladly share them.
