Having Alicia introduce us to Malaga was a great way to start our time there. She is knowledgeable about many topics related to history, archeology, culture and more. She is warm and personable, and we appreciated having her all to ourselves — to be able ask questions and have in depth conversations about the place. A great private tour!

Our tour guide was amazing!! We walked through all the spots and was told about the history of each of the stops.

This was a wonderful walking tour of old Malaga! The city is beautiful with a very rich history. Our tour guide, Enrique, was extremely knowledgeable and his English is excellent! Because it is a private tour, we went at our pace and took lots of time where we wanted. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a walking tour at your pace and would enjoy the rich history Malaga offers!
Response from Host, Apr 2024

This was a great tour to learn about and see the sites of Malaga. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly and clearly loved the city where they lived. Having a private tour allowed us to customize and to make an efficient use of our time. Highly recommend this tour!
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Thanks Kristin! It was a pleasure to guide you through the streets of our beloved Malaga. Glad to have helped you make the best use of your time here!

The 2 young ladies that were our tour guides were delightful. Calli spoke Spanish to me since I am trying to do better at speaking and understanding. And the other young lady spoke English to my husband since he does not know any Spanish. It was a wonderful tour and we had the major highlights of Malaga. Afterwords, they sent us the recommendations for various restaurants, flamingo bar, and historic places that are of high interest to them. I would highly recommend these two young ladies.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you so much for this amazing review Kathleen! It was a pleasure to accompany you in this tour and help you improve your Spanish at the same time :)

Our tour with Cilia was amazing. She was so knowledgeable and brought us to places we might have found on our own. This tour was just perfect for us and I highly recommend for anyone that enjoys a walking tour where you will be immersed in the local culture.

Silvia did an amazing job showing us around the beautiful city of Malaga. We loved everything about this your and my hubs and I greatly appreciate her pace of the tour. It was a perfect way to get a better understand of the city without a power walking tour. Highly recommend you taking this tour. Thanks Silvia.
Response from Host, Jun 2023

Renee_W, Jun 2023
Had a great time learning the history of Malaga, but also the good restaurants and museums. It rained a bit but that did not stop us. So personal and so fun!
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thanks for your wonderful review Renee! It was a pleasure for us to show you around our beloved Malaga :)
JimLittman, May 2023
The tour operator was very nice and accommodating. But the guide was a very young woman from Italy that only had surface knowledge of the city and the culture. The next day I toured the Muslim fortress on the $10 group tour and guide shared an amazing amount of information we didn't get on this tour
Response from Host, May 2023
Thanks for your comment Jim, and for recognizing the good job we did accommodating all your requests. I think that comparing a private, complete overview of the city with a group tour of a single monument it's not fair, as they are two very different services. Our guides are well prepared and we do a longer tour in which you have the chance to ask as many questions as you like, while big group tours are shorter and limited to listening.

Alicia was a wonderful guide and gave us a great over view of the beautiful city of Malaga!! She was very knowledgeable and helpful!
Response from Host, May 2023
Thank you for such an amazing review! It was great to meet you and guide you around our beloved Malaga! :)
Sara_C, Apr 2023
Our tour guide, Nicoletta took us around the city and did a nice job explaining a he places that have an historical significance. The City Center of Malaga is not very big so I would recommend this tour on the first day or two that you arrive. It's a great way to get an overview of the city and see which places you'd like to come back to and spend more time visiting. Plus a great way to just get an overview in general.
We started at our hotel which is located by the Cathedral. She told us the history of the cathedral and a few other places that were in the area including a Flamenco building and a travelling fountain. We visited the Roman Theater and walked up the side of a mountain for the most amazing views of the skyline I'd ever seen. The end of the tour was going to be a walk along the beach but my friend and I were hungry so we had her drop us off at a non-chain restaurant near the boardwalk.
She is friendly and knows the history of the places she shows you.
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Thank you for your kind words! We are very happy to hear you enjoyed the walk, the views and our stories :)
leon_t, Mar 2023
The booking was made for the wrong date. When asked to change was told they would not do it and charged the money.
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Hi Leon, you know that our guide was already waiting for you at your hotel but you didn't show up for the tour. As you can see in the experience page we allow unlimited changes and offer full refund up to 24h before the start. Even after that time, we normally consider clients' requests but, in this case, you didn't communicate with us to tell us about the wrong date before the tour start.
We are really sorry for the inconvenience.
Anne_T, Nov 2022
The guide was lovely, the tour just wasn't very informative. I was surprised how little talking there was during the walking piece. I love history and was hoping for more of an overview of the city, country, etc. The guide spoke to a couple of landmarks but didn't go into much depth. I think I was their third tour of the day so likely just tired!
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Hi Anne! Thanks for the taking the time to review. We remember making a nice overview of the city and answering any questions you had, but we are sorry if you felt that the chatting with you was not enough
Victor_Y, Sep 2022
A fantastic way to get familiar with all the city has to offer. Castles, cathedrals, museums, dining and the waterfront. Ask for Alice, she rocks! Knowledgeable and fun! She provided a great first impression of this fantastic city!
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Thank you so much Victor! You rock too! It was great to show you around the best of Malaga. Hope you come back soon and join another of Oh My Good Guide tours!

What a great tour! Thanks Ocean! Action packed, fun facts, and a great overview of the city. Thanks!
Margaretmoregan, Apr 2022
This walking tour was a great introduction to the lovely and historic city of Malaga. Our guide Oshan was enthusiastic, very knowledgeable and a great story teller. The booking process, the meeting arrangements and the pace of the tour were without fault. We really appreciated learning about the history of the area, identifying places/museums we needed to visit and finding out about good places to eat. By the way there is no shortage of good places to eat in Malaga! Highly recommended tour.
