5.00Our tour guide at Caminito del Rey, Arancha, was a very humorous, knowledgeable guide. We unfortunately got caught by a rain half way through the walk but her sense of humour and encouraging spirit helped us and other people power through! The guide on the bus (Luis) and the bus driver (Miguel) were also quite friendly and welcoming as well.
Fantastic

5.00Luis was the perfect guide, professional, helpful, calm, clear. Lots of interesting information about the area and the walk, both on the bus and on the walk. His language skills are incredible. Our tour was in English then German, and he switched back and forth effortlessly. The paths and walkways we walked on were in good shape. Some steps to climb. Spectacular walk and vistas.
Best tour ever

4.00Everything was very professional, bus on time, friendly informed guides, and a safe driver. The walk was at a pace that everyone could enjoy and take in the views. Not a difficult walk by any means and time to eat at the end without rushing back to the bus so very enjoyable.
