  • The Hike of a Lifetime and Very Do-able!

    Virginia B,,Jan 7, 2026

    - Review from Viator

    It is extremely safe and do-able! Don't be deterred and don't miss out on this stunning experience. The group moves at a very manageable pace for all, with stops along the way. Just be sure to have plenty of water and sun protection (it was 102 in July when we were there). We are all senior citizens, two with ongoing health challenges, and everyone did fine. They also have a medic on hand and can transport anyone out who may need assistance, at any time. Professionally run, wonderful, the hike of a lifetime. Go do it!

  • Great day with professional people. A little long.

    Caminito del Rey was an experience we were recommended by others - and which we found so exciting. We traveled with Julia Travel from Malaga. Meeting place in Malaga was central and easy to find. The bus arrived in good time. The tour was full booked - and the weather was perfect (16 degrees, quiet wind and sun). On the way to the attraction, the bus made a stop in Ardales. We were not aware of this when we booked the trip - and it seemed to be in excess of an hour in a small shopping street where three buses had a break - and a cafe, with a poor toilet would handle it all. Pulled down our experience. The walk itself was exciting for one with moderate altitude. It is crowded along the route and can be something waiting ... You go in line to say it straight. When we were through the tour we ended up in an area with sales boards and toilets. Here we stood waiting for another group for almost an hour. With that said; our English language guide was very knowledgeable (doing this tour twice a day) and professional. The buses were in good quality and Caminito del Rey is worth the trip, we think. A little long.

    We are a family of four and joined their guided tour. Due to transport issues we arrived about 30 minutes late, but the staff kindly moved us to a later tour so we could still join. I honestly thought we would miss it, so we were really grateful – they were very flexible and helpful! The guided tour was absolutely worth it. Sandro was clear, engaging, funny and very polite. The walking pace was just right, and we learned so much more about the history and geography of the area. Highly recommended – 10/10!

    Had to re book, as small group tour was cancelled, going with 50+ people not usually my thing, but you are split into smaller groups by language, so turned out okay. Well worth the money, fantastic views and scenery. Don't believe scare stories about toilets, opportunity to go at start and end of walk, as long as you don't have belly full of beer, you'll be fine. Lots walking -so inc. shortish walk to and from pick up we covered over 7 miles, 18,500 steps. Our tour stopped at Ardales on way out, but you're just killing time really, you only get 1 hr there, and not a lot to see.

    This is great trip !! Transportation, and everything that you need it makes things a little simpler! It was a little hard to find the pick up. Read the instructions as much as you possibly can all the instructions are there just not seen them. Make sure you get on the right bus with your reservation quite a few people had her name on different buses didn't understand that little confusing but we did figure it out.

  • Even if the bus had to...

    Although the bus was late in the morning, the tour went very well. Stop in the small village of Ardales then head towards the chemin du Roy with Noelia. Beautiful safe walk. A must in the Malaga region.

  • Gorge was nice to see, but you’ve been hurdled like cattle through the gorge by your tour guide

    Be prepared for the mass volume of people you . I’ll think you’re in Disneyland the amount of people that go through the gate is 1400 people a day. You’ll be queueing up just to move from one section of the path to the next section with your group.Also you’ll cover probably close to 8- 9 km of walking, they don’t tell you that part..

  • Be prepared for a fun and interesting hike

    This is a long hike and if you have mobility issues I do not recommend. There are lots of stairs when going through the mountain and if you are afraid of heights, all I can say is push through it! It’s only a small portion. I loved the hike, the history, interesting, and I highly recommend it!
