What To Expect

Make your way to the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art and present your voucher for admission. The shows vary with the day, using between six and eight styles of choreography that features different parts of the Andalusian riding tradition.

See doma vaquera, based on techniques honed by traditional cattle herders, or watch the exquisite precision of classical dressage, as horses execute maneuvers such as “the colts,” “airs on horseback,” “pas de deux,” “passage and piaffer,” and more.

In displays of carriage driving, horses don a classical harness to demonstrate the old fashioned art, and in “work in hand,” the horses follow commands to carry out classical Haute École dressage exercises. And in the coordinated carousel maneuver, horses and riders work together for a grand finale in the center of the arena.

When the show concludes, you’ll be in the heart of Jerez, close to some of the city’s top historic sites, cafes, and destinations.

Nice show

Pam_L, May 2026
It was a great experience. Only thing was that they didn’t allow photos or videos which was a bummer.

Fun to see.

Karen_S, May 2026

Fantastic !

Sara_M, May 2026
Wonderful way to spend a very rainy day in Jerez - the horses were amazing 🤩 so graceful and elegant. We enjoyed the show enormously!

Really well organised. Go...

anthony_s, May 2026
Really well organised. Go early to collect tickets and explore the grounds. The horses are majestic.

Awesome Show To See

Victor_B, May 2026
Awesome! Show, very entertaining. Well organized, Parking was hard, wish we could have taken pictures and video of the show.

Very poor ticketing process

Paula_S, Apr 2026
You pay and get confirmation yet when you arrive you must get in a long line at a box office, show your confirmation then they give you tickets. The line included people purchasing tickets and the box office didn’t open until about 35 minutes before the show. We arrived over an hour early hoping to tour the grounds and see the horses before the show as they do not allow any photographs or video in the arena and are watching very closely. We barely got to our seats on time. The odd number sections are on one side and even on the other but no one is directing you until you are inside. Btw they scan the paper tickets yet will not just send you a barcode to scan on your phone to skip the line nonsense. The show was interesting but repetitive. If you love horse riding and really love horse shows this is probably the best audience. We were only maybe 15 to 20 parties back in the line and the line went out the gate and down the block. If you happen to be in town the day before you can apparently get the tickets from somewhere in the school but we were not in town until the day of the show.

Poor ticket retrieval no fault of Viator

christine_p, Apr 2026
Ridiculous amount of time in the queue waiting to get the tickets. Not the fault of Viator as they had given us a voucher with a bar code. Get there at least an hour beforehand or you might not get in by 12noon.

Great show

Louise_C, Apr 2026
Excellent horse show, great value for money. Just disappointed that you are unable to take photos, while I appreciate not using a flash. Wished there were the occasional photo opportunity.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank for your kind words and understanding regarding not taking photos; flashes can frigten the horses.

I had no idea horses can do what they did - it was incredible show of skills, grace, pose - just an excellent show all around

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thanks you for your recognition

Andalusian horse show

Karen_B, Sep 2025
Quite a good show but some points that need addressing. We were not told that we might get seats with a restricted view. This spoilt the show. As we could not see a quarter of the arena. I feel Viator let us down here and some compensation should be given.

Wonderful ! So...

Maria_N, Sep 2025
Wonderful ! So interesting to see the horses doing dressage and dancing to the music! Would recommend!

Brilliant

Leanne_C, Sep 2025
Absolutely fabulous show the horses are amazing just go you won't be disappointed, just be aware as you leave taxis are a nightmare good luck trying to find one

Amazing show for horse lovers!

Angel_M, Aug 2025
Amazing what they have trained these horses to do. Really enjoyed the show and recommend seeing it. Given the time we went, highly recommended bringing a fan and would been extra awesome to have a guide or something to allow us to understand the audio for the show which was in Spanish only. Still able to enjoy the show but that would have made it better.

The show was very well...

Alfredo_M, Jul 2025
The show was very well organized. Give yourself about 30-45 extra minutes to visit the grounds. The arena does get warm in summer, prepare ahead. Get information for parking, avoid anyone signaling you down to arrange parking.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for your message, we appreciate your advice and we will try to improve for your next visit

3-4 stars depending on the seats

Brandi_D, Jun 2025
Make sure you get off the right train stop- the listing has 2 towns and we ended up having to take an expensive cab ride to make the show. Also we booked the front row - if we had sat in any other seats it would have been 3 stars ….

Really incredible! A...

Noah_F, Jun 2025
Really incredible! A great experience for those that love horses or even people that appreciate the beauty of excellence.

Wow!!!! Really really good.

Tom_C, May 2025
I can't say enough good things about this show. It was very well done and I'd do it again. Parking was one of the concerns that I had but it was not an issue. We were able to park close to the venue. There are a few people pointing out parking spots. Not bad. We gave him a 5 Euro tip.

Great show that was worth the trip to Jerez!

Stephanie_B, Apr 2025
This was a fun and unique experience that we are glad we did! We took the train from Seville to Jerez de la Frontera on our own. We arrived to the equestrian school early and were able to watch them practice before the show. There was a nice little cafe to grab a drink and bite to eat. The horse dancing show was great! You can tell the trainers take great pride in learning this craft! The horses were amazing ing to watch! Highly recommend!

Fun activity near Cadiz

We absolutely loved this experience. The facility is nice and the horses and equestrians were very talented.

Best ever!

Anne_H, Jan 2025
The higher up the seats, the better view! Fabulous show. We enjoyed watching the horses and riders in the warm-up ring as well. Would loved to know more about the history of the horses 🐎

Since we were first time...

Inese_A, Dec 2024
Since we were first time at the attraction, missed some more explanation in English. We definitelly appreaciated the beautiful animals and the things they have been taught. Surprise of some acrobatic jumps is really fantastic.

A beautiful suprise

Darren_J, Nov 2024
The show was excellent. A variety of performances, not too long but thoroughly enjoyable. An authentic taste of Andalusia
