Top Malaga Day Trips - page 7

Javi was so friendly. He had everything well planned. We went to places we would have never found on our own. The food was unique and the wine was generous. I think this was our favorite tour of the 4 places we visited. I would love to come back and do this again. I've already recommended it to several people.

This trip was excellent. I learned about the very interesting history of both towns. Setenil de las bodegas was very interesting even though it was a very cold and foggy morning, I enjoyed it immensely. Ronda was also very nice. I enjoyed listening to the history of this town. Orson Wells loved Ronda so much that he requested to have his ashes spreaded at a farm he spent his time at. Ernest Hemingway was a frequent visitor to Ronda as well Japanese painter Miki Haruta spent his last days there painting the mountains and an urn with his is at the place where painted at at the end of his life. I highly recommend this tour.

What an amazing experience and Danny, our guide made it fun, informative, and insightful. I loved the pace and the humor that he displayed as he guided us throughout the experience. The sites are close, however, you need to be ready to climb some stairs while at the Alcazaba Roman Theatre. The cathedral is beyond beautiful and Danny had an amazing grasp of the history, the details and the little known stories that are a part of the history and the commitment of the community to preserving its past. This was a great tour. if you get Danny as your guide it makes it even better!

This tour could not have been better. It was everything, from beautiful photo ops, to riding a camel, to lots of interesting history, beautiful and low-pressure shopping opportunities, to the most amazing feast for lunch. But the real clincher was when I left my jacket in the van in Tangier. The next day in Malaga it was returned to me—an operation that involved the driver in Tangier, someone to bring it across on the ferry, and a special delivery in Spain at my hotel. An unbelievable effort for a lost jacket. I cannot recommend this group highly enough. I had the time of my life.

The trip to Cordoba was exactly as described. Our tour guide, Sara, made the bus ride interesting. We had the self-guided tour, allowing us 5 hours to explore Cordoba on our own, which gave us enough time to see the sights that interested us, enjoy a relaxing lunch, and take a walk by the river. If doing the self-guided tour, purchase your Mezquita tickets in advance, as time slots do sell out. It took about 2 hours to get to Cordoba from Malaga with a bathroom / coffee break on the way. 1.5 hours back, as there was no break, so also be sure to use the bathroom before leaving Cordoba. Overall a wonderful day trip.

As I was only the second collection for the day, it was a long gap to arriving at the coffee stop, but I was aware of this, and patient with the process. It does, however, make for a long day from Fuengirola (or similar area). There was a friendly greeting from Samir (driver) and Benjamin (guide) and lots of interesting information on the drive, which also continued on the walk itself. The section to the start was a bit longer than expected, but a good indication of the terrain for the day. Once on the platforms, it's .just WOW! And kept getting wower (if that's a word). Everything feels solid, railings are containing and there is a wire on the cliff if you need a safety touch. The gaps between the boards are obvious, so it could be triggering if worried about heights. We had beautiful weather, with blue skies and cool breeze, not too many groups - I definitely wouldn't choose to do it in summer. I actually found the end section the most challenging - quite a few stairs, narrow treads and inclines and then steepish downhill to the picnic area. I was proud I had done it, but I didn't have a lot left in the tank. A cool beer revived my spirits before the drive home, with more excellent commentary from Benjamin. Well worth the money and a very smooth operation.

Lucia was a great guide, she seemed genuinely interested in the history of Spain and Andalucia, and had a very interesting and engaging way of telling it. The tour took us all over the Alcazaba, with further tips on what to see and not from there. The tour ended inside, so you can roam about and explore on your own after. Fascinating!

Beautiful day on a lovely boat in a beautiful sea!! We very much enjoyed the trip! The sea was choppy and we were so happy to know in advance so we could take medicine, so no one was sick. The boat was clean and stocked, the crew was attentive and very helpful, and very nice! we didnt see dolphins, but there’s nothing the ship had control over, they searched the seas the entire voyage with binoculars. They gave a very generous offer for a repeat trip with no expiration date for 50% off! They totally don’t have to do that!! we enjoyed the day on a boat, with beautiful weather and good company. Thank you!!
