“We were in Ronda on a dreary day and this made the touring the city and gorge so much more fun, than trudging through in the rain. We went the through the mountain area, saw wild boar and goat. Then toured through the town across the top of the bridge and down to the bottom of the gorge for a view from the bottom. Great way to see Ronda!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 59 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $66.38

Small-group Torcal de Antequera hike from Malaga with guided geology, fossils, goats and vultures, plus transport and admission.

“My spouse and I greatly enjoyed this trip. I liked that it was a small group, just 8 of us. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun and the trip departed right on time. The route is manageable for most people (one couple with us was over age 75) yet challenging enough to not be boring. You'll witness some incredible landscapes unlike anything I've seen anywhere else in the world. Truly incredible. I think this is a great trip if you want to do something unique in Malaga and have already experienced the Caminito Del Rey. I think the price was fair given the small group and top quality overall.”

Be ready to descend steep areas until the beach, some areas are challenging...not for every body....once in the beach we could relax and enjoy in this unique place. We were alone in the beach and we started with the snorkelling. We saw a lot of fish in the turquoise water. It really felt like vacations!”

Drive an electric microcar through Malaga, from Picasso neighborhoods to Montes de Málaga views and Gibralfaro, with lunch stop.

That being said, we had a blast. Alex was an excellent guide & leader, and he & Gemma were constantly on the lookout for our comfort and pleasure.”
