A fantastic experience. Not to be missed - and, at age 84, very doable. Safety was the site's primary focus as it should be and was never a problem.

Torremolinos day out

Interesting day away from pool or beach. Walk was reasonably easy. Except for a few stairs and the odd suspension bridge. Safety was covered. The guide through the gorge was both informative and very handsome.

Best thing I did in Malaga!

Best thing I did in Malaga! Excellent guide, high quality safety equipment, and photos/video taken for you on the route. Not too difficult for beginners, the route has a zipline and two bridges. Highly recommended!

Excellent excursion from Malaga

Caminito del Rey is a must do if you can. Well organised excursion, book early for best time slots, but completely do-able in the midday heat. I was a bit worried about the walkway height, but unless you choose to look over the safety barrier you should be ok. Absolutely loved it, our guide Moses was great and helped with my nerves over the 2 suspension bridges. Laura who met us at the pick up point in Malaga was lovely and our coach driver Andres was exceptional managing the mountain roads.

It’s worth the 2 hour bus...

It’s worth the 2 hour bus ride from Seville. Well organized. The ‘hike’ is more of a walk and it’s easy walking. As long as you are not afraid of the heights this excursion is for you…esp after spending a couple of days in Seville. It’s nice to get a break from all that eating and drinking!!

Wrong meeting point in Benalmádena

The system gave a Google Maps link and street adress to a wrong meeting point in Benalmádena. The link should have been to a bus stop nearby. Further more, the contact telephone number did not answer. However, once the bus was sorted out the trip was well organised. Amazing experience.
