Excellent guide, very informative with regard to the history and biodiversity along the walk and he has a great sense of humour. Stunning experience. We all enjoyed the stunning scenery and the exhilaration of the wind in our hair high up on the side of the gorge.

Most amazing experience ever
Sarah_C, May 2024
From the very start, as soon as we met our Guide Sophia, I could tell that we were not only going to be well informed about our walk, and the knowledge that she shared with us, but also knowing that we were in safe and very experienced hands.

The tour throught caminito del Rey was spectacules. We had Antonio as a guide and thank to him we learn a lot about the nature and canyons. Pro tip: Its good to know that you need to check in in the hotel. After that the tour guides will tell you instructions.

We were not picked up for the activity by the guide so we drove all the way there for nothing. I asked a full refund as a result.
Walk is amazing but this tour is not
Dan_H, Apr 2024
The Caminito del Rey was amazing and the guide was lovely but they leave you hanging around for two hours before you actually get to start the walk. Arrived at 2.15 and started at 4.15. The coach to get there is about 15 minutes, everything else is a frustrating waste of time. Definitely walk the Caminito del Rey but not with these people
Recommended!

Barb_M, Apr 2024
Well organized tour, host Pedro was informative and provided some great insight. Overall great experience, good value
Breathtaking walk
Emily_M, Apr 2024
We had perfect weather with a great knowledgeable, energising, fun tour guide (Pablo). The walk was simply stunning. Additionally we learned a lot - historical, bit of geological, bit of Spanish culture. Inspiring stuff for two engineers from UK, now considering a change of disciplines to Hydroelectric! Cannot recommend more highly. Emily & Dan

Nice views
Faja_C, Mar 2024
Amazing guide Really good views and amazing sightseeing Totally recomand if you are around Malaga and surroundings
Walk through the gorge...
George_B, Mar 2024
Walk through the gorge was spectacular. Only one critisism. One in our group decided she wanted to cancel. I could not cancel her without cancelling the whole group and rebooking. Could not do that as there were not any spots left.
Way too crowded
Barbara_H, Mar 2024
Way too crowded - made it very difficult to enjoy the landscape and being outside. Could see it being a great experience if there weren't so many people. We felt like we were in a queue the whole time rather than being on a walk in the mountains.
Great day!
Craig_L, Mar 2024
Really enjoyed the walk. Claudio was a very informative guide who engaged with the group with history, knowledge and humour. Highly recommended.
