Can you imagine discovering hidden waterfalls, a century-old monastery and a medieval fortress in one day and without crowds? With us it is possible, because we will be a maximum of 8 travelers, sharing the experience as if we were lifelong friends.

From Madrid we will head to the Monastery of Stone, a natural paradise with waterfalls, trails and dreamscapes. Then we will enter the monastery to travel centuries ago and get to know the life of the monks and their wine tradition.

At noon we will stop in Calatayud, where authentic Aragonese cuisine awaits us. Each traveler will be able to choose their menu at a local restaurant (each pays for their consumption), but we will share the table and laughter.

In the afternoon we will visit the Parador de Sigüenza, an impressive medieval fortress where we will drink a drink and be engulfed by its legendary atmosphere.
We will return to Madrid after a unique, intimate day full of unforgettable moments.
