4×4 excursion to the Tabernas desert
Welcome to the most desert-like region in Europe
In this excursion to the Tabernas desert you will travel a film route visiting natural landscapes of unique geology and iconic film sets.
The desert landscape of Tabernas is sometimes dotted with small oases with palm trees that have their origin in old film productions. In this territory of marine origin, mountains cracked by gullies succeed one another in a landscape known as badlands. These breathtaking landscapes have linked the image of this place to the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East.
You will start with a fantastic 4X4 route guided by a great connoisseur of the Tabernas desert. This guided expedition through the inhospitable and desolate landscapes of Almeria is designed to meet some mythical film sets and describe unparalleled geological landscapes. The 4×4 route has a duration of two hours of pure emotion.
This off-road vehicle route will allow you to reach places far from civilization where it is not easy to access. Throughout your adventure you will make 5 key stops to enjoy the best landscapes and viewpoints of the desert. Along the way, your guide and driver will tell you stories of “the One-Armed Man” (Clint Eastwood in the “Dollar Trilogy” by Italian director Sergio Leone), “Indiana Jones” (Harrison Ford) or “Khaleesi” (Emilia Clarke as Daenerys Targaryen in Game of Thrones).
At the end of the 4×4 route you will visit an outdoor movie set, the famous Mini Hollywood. It is the place where most movies have been filmed and where characters such as Orson Welles, Brigitte Bardot, Clint Eastwood, Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Claudia Cardinale, Anthony Quinn, Alain Delon, Sean Connery, Raquel Welch, etc. have been filmed.
In addition, during your visit to the Mini Hollywood you will enjoy at least one live action show with real actors performing stunts.
At noon a reserved table awaits you at a very special restaurant in the area. In addition to the local gastronomy, the restaurant has an oil mill where extraordinary desert oils are produced and a space-museum with the machinery of an old oil mill.
¡3, 2, 1, action!
