Excellent! - Awe-inspiring! I stayed in Malaga entirely to go on this hike and it exceeded my very high expectations. In terms of the tour, our guide, Luis, was excellent and I appreciated that he gave us the option of going at our own (faster) pace or staying with the group.

Exceptional site - Visit organized and planned during a short stay in Malaga with family. 1 hour by air-conditioned bus (essential in August with heat). Beautiful and impressive! Not to be missed!

Nice experience - Given that I suffer from dizziness, I had fun, 8 km walk from 15 to 17, very nice place to photograph, along the way there are very high points, just do not look down and keep walking 😅, at the end of the path when everything seems to end ... there is the suspension bridge! We tell them it was a good challenge, it is very high, and the bridge is narrow and moves quite a bit!! Test of courage passed👊

Unforgettable experience, must do! - Caminito del Rey was truly one of the best tour experiences of our lives. The views were absolutely breathtaking—photos simply can’t capture the sheer beauty and scale of the place. It far exceeded our expectations in every way. The tour itself was well-organized, and the guides were exceptional. They were knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights about the history and significance of the path, making the experience even richer. The walk itself was about 3 miles long and surprisingly easy. I think anyone could do it without much difficulty, making it accessible for most ages and fitness levels. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for something unique and memorable, Caminito del Rey is a must-see!

IT'S PEC TA CU LAR - Experience if you are close to Malaga, you don’t have to miss it, we were a little afraid because of the time we caught and being summer and at 16:00 puts in some comment that was better at 16 than 12 as the tour was giving you the shade, so we entered earlier as we were going with a small group of Spaniards. The road is super adapted and without any danger, that if you climb stairs down stairs. Take water and if you do not Shopping there you have bathrooms at the entrance and exit of the tour by the way super clean .We took the entrances with guide that I think is worth .Special mention to Cristobal our guide, very nice quite liar that made us think that we would end up walking with the goats, lol, you were 10. The amazing tour, the photos are very beautiful but living it is spectacular. The entrances and parking you choose do a tour one way or another, I took north parking and then the shuttle bus left us there. If you don't like heights I don't encourage you. I enjoyed it a lot.

Great experience! - The most beautiful place I've ever seen and great guides! It is a challenging hike, especially in andalucian heat but it is well worth it!

Very unorganized - The weather changed and was forecast 41 degrees on the day which was too hot for me and my partner. I requested to cancel. It was just under 24 hours before. They eventually got back to me and offered to try to resell our tickets but by the time they got back to me it was late at night and was very unlikely to sell the tickets by then. They then offered me 20 euro compensation but never sent it to me which is annoying. Overall a very bad experience. I did go with another supplier the next day and the walk is really nice but I would not recommend doing it with this operator.
