I have been working as a guide for more than 10 years and I have organized routes for all kinds of groups through Andalusia, especially Cádiz and Seville, and Morocco to the Sahara. Although I am not a native of Vejer, I know its streets and hideouts; their myths and legends. I was in Morocco with my partner Responsible for the Fundación Forja XXI in Morocco, who worked for tourism development. There we discovered the possibilities offered by activities related to tourism and history. And that's where my love for Arab, Jewish and Christian cultures began.
Tapas and Flamenco tour in Vejer. First of all ensure you will see all the monuments of any monumental route in any city; but there will also be a common thread around flamenco.
History says that Flamenco is born from the meeting of gypsies, Muslims, Jews and Africans, when hidden, they sing their sorrows for the expulsion decreed at the end of the 15th century by the Catholic Monarchs.
In Vejer , as in almost all of Andalusia, you can visit and identify the monuments, neighbourhoods, customs, streets and characters of that time. While we learn that history, we will taste typical dishes from the table of those times, washed down with authentic wines (or beer of our time).
We will find their traces in places like the Wall where the Famous Flamenco Night of Vejer is celebrated; the Peña Aguilar de Vejer , next to the Castle of Vejer , the old Church of El Rosario ; the white and flowered balconies from where in the month of July the famous Flamenco festival is celebrated on the balconies; or Jewish and Arab neighborhoods ; a set that will show us the monumentality of the Town.
This common thread of Flamenco and History will lead us to the table to taste the tapas.
Poverty became a virtue and hearty dishes were created capable of feeding numerous families and which today are a delicacy.
Such as:
Cádiz chicharrón
Salmorejo, Gazpacho or Picadillo with Tomatoes from Conil.
The Tortilla de patatas, ennobled in Vejer by the natural products of the region of La Janda.
The "chupadedos" olives.
Chips.
Country bread.
All accompanied by autochthonous beers "Cruzcampo" or "Estrella de Sur"; in addition to the white wine "Verdejo" Barbadillo from DO Jerez - Xerry; or red wine from Tierra de Cádiz, made with Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tintilla de Rota grapes.
It is at the end of the historic route , where the dishes are tasted in the old Peña Flamenco Aguilar de Vejer (free admission), a great singer; and which was also the Church of the Rosary.
