A bus, some good guides, and lots of nature and adrenaline
MARTA_S, October 2026
Highly recommended excursion if you are in Málaga city and do not have a car to get there. The bus trip is very pleasant and there is also a stop in a typical Andalusian town (Ardales) where they give you about 45 minutes to explore it at your own pace. We had Federica as our guide, a very nice, cheerful, and professional girl who explained things to us along the way and let us sleep when it was just highway. On the Caminito we were with Pedro, they separated us into a group of Spanish speakers and it was very pleasant (explanations, walking pace, and danger warnings when necessary). Very happy!

Really good experience

Really beautiful and exciting trip. Can be clearly recommended. Remember closed shoes, and enjoy the trip. Food and drinks can be bought at the stop before the trip if you forgot to buy them yourself.

Day trip from Malaga
Ann75Cork, October 2026
Well worth visiting, everything included in price. Pick up in bus, approx 1.5 hours, stopped in little village on way, nice but maybe not needed. Tour guide talked a lot, was okay, maybe too much chat- not needed, had ear phones so were able to remove to take break from listening. Did feel bit drawn out and then further wait for bus at end to bring back to Malaga so 7 hours to do a 1.5 hour trip 1 hour outside Malaga, positive was there was no rush with anything. Views were fab, very organised.

Good experience
AnaRosa_L, October 2026
You have to walk a lot and go two or three hours without using the restroom. Do not go in the summer, it is extremely hot even in October.
