Are you ready for Active Cultural Holidays?
Active cultural holidays take place in Andalusia. We provide accommodation, outdoor sports and travel, together with direct experience of the local culture. We want you to feel you really got to know the place and the people. Much of travelling nowadays is about passively seeing things. Active cultural holidays help you understand and participate in what you see. It is active outdoor learning at its best, led by our passion to share.
When you stay with Active Cultural Holidays, you have a choice of beautiful self-catering apartments in authentic Andalusian accommodation. Our two locations in Frigiliana are “Monasteria” house and villa “El Jardin”. Both are suitable for all ages and backgrounds and will be the base for your stay in Andalusia.
Together with our friends in the area, we also offer you a range of activities and excursions tailored to your needs and interests, timed to fit into your own plans and schedule. These range from a couple of hours to whole-day outings. In a typical stay of 1-2 weeks, you might enjoy a selection of the available choices. It’s totally up to you.
We have activities to appeal to all. Some are nature-based and energetic, such as gorge walking and hiking. Others will open your eyes to the cultures, traditional skills and lives of people in the area. You can choose how much or how little you want to do. Take a look at the list of activities and we are sure there will be something you will like.
Not actively inclined? No problem. You are welcome to have a relaxing stay at your own leisure, maximizing the chance to wander around the charming town of Frigiliana and seeing everything it has to offer.
How learning through active holidays works.
Cycling in mountains between small villages and old farm houses surrounded by avocado and mango orchards, in old days by vineyards, almond and olive groves. Observing and learning how the architecture and agriculture evolved over the centuries. How local people adopted in direct response to influence of global, socio-economic and cultural factors. Understanding and experiencing in our own orchard what it takes to bring that fruit on the table.
A trip that teaches respect to hard rural life and work. It inspires a desire to grow your own food and it promotes support to growers.
Active cultural holidays offer experiences like this ranging from weekend trips to long stays. Simply choose your favourite adventure and a genuine Andalusia Holiday House you will live in.
