5.00It was great! Best ever! About an hour outside of Malaga and the bus ride was nice and easy with great sights. Upon arrival, the helmets went on and we took off on wooden and metal walkways along the side of cliffs-yikes! Then the bridge! Felt like Indiana Jones! Truly, an amazing experience. Then a little bit hiking and back to the beginning.

5.00Fabulous tour - it was everything promised and so much more . The meeting point was perfect and we were guided about the itinerary on the bus . Esmerelda was informed and her English was impeccable. She handed us over to Marie who walked us through the Caminito , sharing details around the history of the route and its wildlife . She was awesome . The pace was kind and perfect for everyone . I’d considered doing this independently but this gave so much more richness to the experience . Highly recommend.
An essential excursion

5.00I had already heard comments about the King’s Walk and finally we have been able to make the excursion, now I know why it has so much fame and if we also add the good work of the guide we have had (Adrián Leiva Amado), very pleasant and entertaining at all times, has known to clarify all the doubts that have arisen, if you do this excursion and have the possibility to choose the guide, certainly ask for Adrian Leiva Amado.
Absolutely must do! Best experience

5.00This is the highlight of my first trip to Torremolinos. I booked a taxi from Apartmentos Bajondillo to Malaga (later found out that the bus had picked up at the hotel next to me that morning so I could have saved myself €27 😏 The bus was half an hour late due to an accident on the motorway but smooth journey after that. The views on the Caminito are breathtaking, I loved every minute of it although I would say a decent level of fitness is required, there are plenty of steps. I would recommend a guided tour, Mar was knowledgeable and good fun. Had time for reasonably priced wine & chips at the end before being picked up by our tour bus. Left apartment at 7:30 should be back by 3pm (writing this on the bus!) So it is a long day. Bring water (none was provided) Don’t wear flip flops! And please pay attention. We waited 30 mins for a couple to get back to the coach yet 50 other people managed to get back on time 🤔 Superb day out, I thoroughly enjoyed it
What an experience!

4.00This walk is an overwhelming experience. We chose an organized day trip. Who was perfectly cared for with a pleasant and concerned attendant (Esmeralda). You walk under the guidance of - in our case - very pleasant and friendly guide who gives information through earpieces. Although he walked at a leisurely pace, it is a bit of a pity that you do not get enough breaks along the way to take in the impressive surroundings and let what a unique experience this is.
Experience not to be missed
