Absolutely stunning!

Our guide Robert at Caminito was funny and reassured me of safety along the way. The views are stunning. The trail was not as hard as I thought it would be. Im not an overly fit person but I was able to do the whole trail. Janet our guide on the bus had loads of information about the area and was clear in her directions.

Top trip

Amazing place! Well worth a visit. The travel to and from was organised and worked out well. The tour guide was helpful and informative on the coach, but once the walk started we didn’t see them again until the end. Fantastic scenery though! Had a great time. The suspension bridges were fun, the first one was really high! Great shops and cafes at the end Highly recommended going.

Pleasant trip. Recommend it.

Caminito del rey is an amazing place to visit. Our trip was very well organised. Our guide kept well informed. She gave us enough time in every stop, no rushing. Coach was clean and comfortable. Perhaps the only thing to improve, it's the breakfast/ bar stop in the village. A different establishment with more toilets and better quality coffe / food.

Breathtaking scenery

Our guide, Esmeralda, was excellent. Knowledgeable, good English, kept checking throughout we were walking at an acceptable pace, regular reminders to drink lots of water and apply sunscreen. The walk through the gorges was stunning. Pictures dont do it justice. Breathtaking scenery. I'd definitely recommend it. But...you need to be fit enough for about 5 mile hike, on uneven paths with lots of stairs - and it was 32⁰C the day we went. Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
