Full description

Úbeda and Baeza sit a few kilometres apart in the olive country of Jaén, a little under two hours’ drive from Granada. In the sixteenth century wealthy nobles filled both towns with churches and palaces in the Italian style, and together they were added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2003.

This combo pairs a guided walk through Úbeda’s Plaza Vázquez de Molina, with the Sacred Chapel of the Saviour, and a visit to Baeza’s cathedral square and old university. It ends with a tasting of local olive oils, so you can understand what makes this region the heart of Spain’s oil production.
