The minibus eases away from the Costa del Sol and the road unfurls through olive groves and white villages until Ronda rises on a cliff, the Tagus gorge daring you to look down. A local guide meets the group beside the New Bridge; stone blocks cut centuries ago cast cool shadows over the drop while the river below pushes on, indifferent to human drama.
