What are people saying about El Caminito del Rey

From Malaga Caminito del Rey Guided Tour with transportation

Carmen_V, Mar 2026

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.

Absolutely stunning!

Absolutely loved our visit to Caminito del Rey, we had the pleasure of having Monica as our guide. She was so impressive with her knowledge of the area, made sure she engaged with lots of our group, took photos for us and was genuinely a lovely person. I have to say it is a very long day being the first an last pick up but all in all we 100% made the right decision to go as part of a tour and not on our own as we had originally planned to do. I highly recommend this tour.

A Thrilling Experience!

This was an amazing experience and Alejandro was an amazing guide. With a daughter who loves rock climbing, this seemed a fun way to share her passion without needing quite as much skill. It was a ton of fun and we got some amazing views! We were a bit worried that we wouldn't be able to do it due to rain, but we were able to wait it out. Alejandro was very patient with us, making sure we did everything safely and in control, but also making sure we enjoyed ourselves throughout.
