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.

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.

Very fun and fantastic views.

Pickup location gets confusing with so many different tour picking up there. Once at location guide leads you to entry of the park then park guide walk you through which was excellent. The tour is more brisk paced so people with some difficulties walking fast and climbing some stairs this may not be for you. Took about 2.5 hrs to walk. Doing it solo at your leisure may be doable.

Memorable hike in Spain

Very strenuous but extraordinary. Our guide, whose name I forgot - maybe Anita or Amy, was a tiny woman with nonstop energy and enthusiasm. Getting to the start of the tour and from the end to the starting point should be factored in because it adds to the difficulty. That said, I am glad we had such an incredible adventure!

Well worth doing

Miguel was a friendly driver and ensured we made the tour on time, and provided clear instructions on where to meet him at the end once we were ready. The tour of the Caminto del Ray was a liesurely walking pace, but at times felt rushed due to the narrow pathway and need to maintain contact with the guide so that headphone signal remained connected. The experience and hike was great, but my preference in future would be an unguided walk at own pace.
