Enjoy these two emblematic white villages on this day trip to Nerja and Frigiliana
Frigilina is known as one of the most beautiful towns in Spain, you will fall in love with this white-washed village. We will wonder around its narrow streets (walking tour) full of flowers pots and small shops. We will visit the old Fortress, refuge of the last Muslims, and now converted into a sugarcane molasses factory.
Next, we will go to Nerja. This old fishermen's village has become one of the most popular destinations within the province of Malaga. We will walk through its narrow downtown streets between boutiques and restaurants with the Sierra de Almijara as a backdrop, we will visit the famous Balcón de Europa and marvel at the incredible panoramic view of the sea.
Your tour to Nerja would not be complete without a visit to the magnificent Caves of Nerja, famous for the beauty of its interior, with stalactites and stalagmites, and for the magical cave paintings filled with history!

5.00It was an amazing experience! The Cave at Nerja was breathtaking and worth the trip alone. The town of Nerja is filled with great cafes and many opportunities for shopping. Frigiliana is a picturesque seaside town, with great views of the beaches and ocean. Peter is an excellent guide with a deep understanding of the region and the people. The tour was well worthwhile and highly recommended.

5.00We had a tour of Ronda, and another tour of Nerja and Frigiliana. We have been on many tours over the years and these were some of the best. Both guides were knowledgeable and helpful, the sights and activities were fascinating, and the van was comfortable. The cost was very reasonable compared to other tours of this area. Pickup was punctual and convenient. Overall both were great experiences and highly recommended!

5.00⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for the Côte d'Azur tour with Tomas — including Frigiliana and Nerja We toured the Côte d'Azur with Tomas and the experience was just spectacular. From the beginning he proved to be a professional guide, friendly and with an impressive knowledge of every corner we visit. The tour was perfectly organized and full of memorable moments. One of the great successes of the tour was to include Frigiliana and Nerja, two gems that Tomas helped us discover in a unique way. In Frigiliana he showed us his little white streets, hidden viewpoints and the history behind his Andalusian charm. In Nerja he took us to the best panoramic spots, including the Balcony of Europe, and recommended amazing places for photos and to enjoy the local atmosphere. Thomas made every stop something special. His explanations were interesting, clear and full of cultural details that enriched the whole trip. In addition, he was always aware of our comfort, the times and that every moment was perfect. The Côte d’Azur is beautiful, but with Tomas you live in an exclusive, personalized and totally unforgettable way. I recommend it 200%. A must-see tour that we would repeat without thinking.

5.00This was a fabulous tour and very interesting. The views of the Mediterranean Sea, the countryside and the mountains along the route while driving there were beautiful. The caves of Nerja were stunning, as was the town of Frigiliana. We had a wonderful lunch in the town of Nerja. Thomas was an excellent guide and a very safe driver. He gave us so much information about the areas we visited, as well as some great recommendations about places to visit and eat during the rest of our stay in Malaga. I recommend this tour highly!

5.00We started our day with the caves at 10 before the crowds. It is a self guided tour with audio if you scan a QR code on your way in. We missed it but still enjoyed what we saw. From here we went to Frigliana. A beautiful little town only minutes from the caves and well worth the visit. Thomas was our guide, showing us the town of Nerja and recommending a local restaurant for lunch, where we enjoyed eating typical specialties of the area. Our tour started and ended in Malaga. Door to door service with recommendations for more to see and places to eat in the area. Wonderful tour !
Excellent tour!
