Tour description

Is tomato fruit or vegetable? Well… actually both!!!

Did you know that tomatoes are a food that contains Umami? Did you know that lycopene, the pigment that gives it its red color, is also a great antioxidant?

Tomato, due to its characteristics, provides us of both, health and gastronomic emotions, at the same time. If you want to discover why tomato has these properties and much more, and you want to discover it from an organic and environmentally friendly agriculture, we are waiting for you in the heart of Alcarria de Cuenca. This activity will get you to live an experience which will involve all your senses.

The activity meeting point is Huete Tourist Office from where we will drive (with each own vehicle) to an organic garden. Here we will learn all the details of growing Calterras tomato. After the organic garden visit we will have a tomato products tasting in a very special site, an old Palace House from the 17th century. A unique experience to enjoy with family and friends.
