Itinerary
Day 1
Meet at Cortijo El Cura for a relaxed, accessible visit to the farm, agricultural museum and eco-winery followed by a tasting and a short shopping stop. The schedule uses the activity's official 11:00 start time and total duration ~2.5 hours.
Arrival & check-in — Cortijo El Cura main entrance
Arrive a few minutes early to check your reservation at the winery entrance and use the restroom if needed. Staff will welcome the group and confirm any dietary notes (musto for non-drinkers, allergy info).
Tips from local experts:
- There is on-site parking close to the main entrance; ask staff for a short-drop spot if mobility is limited.
- Accessible restroom is available in the facilities — use it before the outdoor part of the visit (vineyards may have uneven ground).
- If you use a cane or wheelchair, tell the staff at check-in so they can suggest the smoothest route and keep you near seating during explanations.
Guided tour — Farm, agricultural museum & winery interiors
Guided English-language walk through the Cortijo El Cura farm, their agricultural museum exhibits and the ecological winery interior. Learn how the estate practices organic farming and the winemaking steps (from vine to barrel). Moderately paced with seating stops for explanations.
Tips from local experts:
- The indoor museum and winery areas are step-free and climate-controlled — request a seat if you prefer to remain seated during longer explanations.
- The vineyards themselves include uneven terrain; the guide will avoid steep rows for anyone with limited mobility and will point out viewpoints you can reach with minimal walking.
- Bring a light layer in spring: indoor spaces can be cool while outdoor parts are sunnier — the venue provides shaded stops.
Wine tasting — 5 organic wines with olives, almonds & breadsticks
Seated tasting of five organic wines produced at Cortijo El Cura, accompanied by olives, farm almonds and breadsticks. The sommelier will explain tasting notes and answer questions — must (grape juice) is available for non-drinkers if noted at booking.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask for a comfortable seat near the window or in the tasting room's quieter corner if you prefer a low-noise setting.
- If you don't drink alcohol, confirm at check-in that staff prepare must (mosto) — they offer this without extra charge.
- Pace yourself: sample small sips, and use the provided water and breadsticks between wines to stay refreshed.
Winery shop — Local products & souvenir shopping
Short visit to the winery shop to view and buy wines, olive oil, honey, jams, cheeses and other La Alpujarra specialties. Staff can pack bottles securely for transport.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask staff to help lift and pack bottles into boxes if you have mobility limits — they often provide secure packaging for the journey home.
- The shop is step-free and has seating nearby if you want to rest while companions browse.
- If you plan to ship bottles home, request assistance early — the staff know local courier options and can advise on fragile packaging.
Transfer back to Laujar de Andarax town centre (optional)
Short drive or stroll to the town centre to continue your day (optional): a gentle walk around the square, café rest or a sit-down lunch in town. This transfer is optional — many seniors choose to return to their hotel after the visit.
Tips from local experts:
- If arranging a taxi, ask Cortijo staff to call one for you; it's often quicker than walking on country lanes.
- The short route into town is paved but can include narrow roads — sit in the front seat if you prefer a smoother ride.
- If you plan to walk, request the easiest walking route from staff (they can point out benches and shade stops).
Optional: Gentle town walk & light lunch in Laujar de Andarax
If you choose to continue, enjoy a relaxed walk around Laujar's small centre and pick a calm café or restaurant for a light lunch (this is optional and not part of the booked activity).
Tips from local experts:
- Pick a café with terrace seating in the main square for comfortable people-watching and easy access to restrooms.
- Ask for menus with clear allergen info; many small town cafés will accommodate dietary needs if given notice.
- If you need mobility assistance, select an indoor table near the entrance to avoid stairs and uneven pavements.
