Overview

GET COMPLETELY OUT OF THE BEATEN PATH AND AWAY FROM THE CROWDS! Exclusive tour run by the owners of the Agua de Carabaña, estate - in native level English.

A unique opportunity to visit the origin of the "miraculous medicinal Carabaña Water", exported in the millions of bottles worldwide a century ago. Highlights include: the prehistoric caves referred to as Madrid´s "Cappadocia", and the restored communal laundry used by villagers. At the estate we tour the restored hydroelectric plant and private museum to learn about the "miracle waters" and visionary entrepreneur who sold them. We hike through the vineyards and ancient olive groves, to the hidden valley of the abandoned resort. We discover the water source as well as caves and tunnels made infamous during the Spanish Civil War. We then walk back to relax in front of the river and falls with a full paella lunch and local wine. Lastly, we gift you our hand-made soap made of the local minerals & herbs before returning to Madrid.

    We drive on the A-3 highway from Madrid and get off in the beautiful Las Vegas Valley only 35 minutes from Madrid city center. The valley is referred to as "Madrid´s Tuscany", lined with rolling hills full of ancient olive trees and vineyards. This area was known as Madrid´s breadbasket, supplying it will all its fruits and vegetables in the bygone years. We stop for a short-walk next to the pre-historic caves named "Risco de las Cuevas", and also referred to "Madrid´s Cappadocia". We then visit the restored communal laundry room where villagers used to do their laundry by hand - a fascinating relic before Spain´s industrialization.

    We drive to the world-famous "Water of Carabaña" private estate. Inside we tour the restored hydroelectric plant and private museum which tells us the story of the "Miracle Waters" that were exported all over the world in the millions of bottles by entrepreneur Jacinto Chavarri. We continue on a walk to the abandoned resort in our hidden valley, passing by the estate´s vineyards. On the waking tour (light hike of about one hour) we visit the wells of the "miracle water" and the now abandoned facilities of the former thermal springs resort. We discover the infamous caves and tunnels of the area and the building, which was the headquarters of the Republican forces in Spain´s Civil War. We then chat with a local farmer and learn about olive picking and processing and Spanish rural life. Then its time to relax. We have a full paella lunch and tapas next to the river and falls, with exquisite local wine. Lastly we gift you our special hand-made soap before shuttling back to Madrid.
