5.00I loved it. It was a very special and interesting tour of the historic centre. I met with Angela, my guide, at the Moorish entrance to the covered Mercado de Atarazarias where I tried and bought some almonds and figs. We then took some of the quieter back streets, viewed several large churches and the cathedral, took in the Plaza de la Constitution, walked past the Museo de Picasso (which I visited later) and then made our way down to the location of the Roman amphitheatre and The Alcazaba of Malaga (an 11th century Moorish fortress), the calming botanic gardens and the harbour with its myriad of stalls and bars as well as a number of superyachts Angela was very informative and a really nice caring person - she sent me several recommendations for food and entertainment afterwards, a couple of which I took up ane enjoyed.

5.00We chose this walking tour of the city and couldn't ask for anything better. The tour was very pleasant and allowed us to discover Malaga in an authentic way, walking through the alleys of the center, admiring the main monuments and finding hidden corners that make this city magical. It was not the usual roundup of dates and monuments, but a walk full of curiosity and real life. The credit was mainly due to Angela, our guide. She is an incredibly sunny, radiant and welcoming person: she really seems like the personification of Malaga! It gives you a crazy energy and tells you the story of the city with such a naturalness that you feel like walking with an old friend. If you want to really understand the spirit of this place and enjoy a special morning (or afternoon), follow Angela. Highly recommended!

5.00Compulsory excursion to get right into the climate of Malaga. You have the chance to see angles that you would probably never be able to find on your own. Angela, the guide, is a very sunny, competent and prepared girl. Available to everyone. Really recommended both the tour and the guide.
