Its a fascinating place with a very interesting history. I'd highly recommend a visit here - there is lots to do and see from a visit to the upper Rock and the monkeys, to a bit of shopping, a nice meal in the square or a visit to the new 'Ocean Quarter' with its port and lovely bars.

We are in our late sixties and were a bit worried about whether we could cope with e-biking. We need not have worried. Wayne was brilliant, totally aware of our ability, took us on appropriate tracks and was an enjoyable companion. The weather was a bit wet, sadly, but we had a great time and hope to return in better weather. Highly recommended.

This tour was one of the best I could ever have asked for! Javier was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, he was a delight to talk to and he really gave me many tips on Malaga and things to do. Javier definitely goes the extra mile to ensure a memorable experience. Javier grew up in Malaga and there are no better people to show you around, I highly recommend this tour!

Maria is my absolute favourite person in Malaga! Really enjoyable day with her learning about the towns history. She was a fountain of information, humoured me with English as my Spanish is still very poor. Highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting.

Surely the most representative monument of the city. To penetrate this Arab palace, is to penetrate the heart of Malaga, it is impossible to understand Malaga's history without visiting it. Witness the invincible power of the Alcazaba! Extensive views of the sea, beautiful details of Muslim architecture, relaxing fountains and gardens…. There are many things to discover that will leave you breathless. Visit the Alcazaba of Malaga while our guides explain how the Muslims lived, how the palace worked and some of the hidden legends of this ancient place. In addition, the visit can be made in other languages (German, French and Italian), checking the availability of the day in advance.

Inclusions: Guided visit

Exclusions: Entrance to the Alcazaba (€ 3.50)

I arrived exactly at 12 at the meeting point. The mail said that we could see the guide in a red shirt. There was nobody.. we were all waiting for the guide to come. They never showed up.. and no one picked up the phone when I called the number which was written in the email.

A quiet, familiar and relaxed tour to get to know Ronda and the region of the white villages by the hand of an Andalusian guide who knows the region and the local culture well. Very personalized, with tickets included to two monuments of Ronda with the possibility of choosing between Plaza de Toros, Casa del Rey Moro and the Arab baths or others requested by the client. Free time for lunch in the city of Ronda and with a stop back to Seville in another white village, Zahara de la Sierra or Setenil de las Bodegas where you can breathe a more rural and less touristy atmosphere than in the beautiful and attractive city of Ronda, offering a broader image about the region of white peoples, their culture and traditions.

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle

Exclusions: Lunch

First of all, the views once we were inside were amazing. I booked this guide through trip advisor months in advance for our trip and it was one of the main highlights. 12 hours the night before our hike, our guide texted me saying he needed to cancel the hike. After asking if there was anything else he could do to be able to go he got back with me saying it was back on. We were also very late to our scheduled time to enter because our guide was unaware of the different route required do to recent rain. It was very stressful once we were there because they would not let us in for our guided tour because we were late. After a lot of arguing between our guide and the workers they let us in the hike on our own without a guide. This experience ended up being exactly what we wanted anyway, without the tour guide! Over all hiking the Caminito Del Ray was everything we expected and more. I think this tour was worth it just because it was a convenient way to get from Seville and back. I would say it was definitely disorganized as the pick up location changed multiple times and the hike almost being cancelled in less than 24 hours before, but at the end everything worked out. I would recommend this if you need a ride from Seville, but I would also recommend looking into taking a train and buying tickets from their website as the hike itself is about a tenth of the price of this guide.

Adriano was a wonderful guide. We had 3 stops. The first one was a small restaurant where we had sangria and sampled several local dishes. One was a potato and egg "omelet ". It was more like a quiche. Either way delicious. We sampled Iberico de Ballota, a Spanish ham. There was also bread and cheese. All fabulous. Our next stop was to a sidewalk cafe where we had the local version of Paella. We drank a lovely red wine. They served bread, a chicken dish and potatoes. All were wonderful Our last stop was to a restaurant that years ago was a Flamenco and artist hall. There was beautiful art work there. We sampled several types of fried fish. The sardines and calamari were perfectly done. We had Boquerones in vinegar and fried. Amazing flavors! There was bread and, of course wine. This time white wine. Adriano had a great grasp on the history of Malaga. He educated us as we walked through bother new and old Malaga. This is a very worthwhile tour.
