Castillo San Miguel
Take your seat for dinner in the vast arena and watch as the knights battle against each other in a return to the days of chivalry and honour. Extravagant amounts of food and free flowing wine will be brought to your table as the armoured warriors compete in the epic trials of horseback jousting, sword fighting, spear throwing and all the violent arts of the olden days. Once the combatants have eliminated their opposition and the last man is left standing the entertainment takes on a more show-bizzy aspect with the Drifters performing their hit singles from the 60's and 70's. This is a great fun night out for the whole family.
