Fantastic trip. Highly recommended. - We had a fantastic day visiting caminito del ray . The pick up point was central and easy to find . The trip took just over an hour and stopped in a small village for a look round and a coffee. The actual walk around caminito was fabulous made extra fantastic by our guide Javier. He gave us lots of information , made it a fun experience . Thank you Javier. Would definitely recommend this trip.

Adrenaline pure - Very enjoyable guided tour. Our tour guide Stefano did a great job in a very entertaining and funny way. I did this hike some years ago, without a guide. This time I've learned many interesting things along the way thanks to our guide. I can highly recommend this adventure.

Lovely walk - A bit chaotic at the start and we had a longer stop in a very pretty town than we needed (and even then about 6 people were over 10 minutes late returning to the coach).
We were told we would be split into a Spanish speaking group and an English speaking group- which would be split again as there were so many of us - but that didn’t happen - so our guide had a group of around 35 - too many.
The Caminito was lovely - not as scary as I imagined.
Overall it was a good experience.

Wonderful place, not that great offering - Caminito del Rey is well worth the trip from Malaga! However I'm not sure this tour bus is the best option, which basically is all this offering gives you (and a stop at a small town which IMO can be skipped). The guide that walks with you is an official Caminito guide, and you also get a helmet from them (with an entrance ticket a priced at 18 €). And to get there you use the train, which is faster and cheaper. Another disadvantage of coming with a large group is the wait time at the entrance gate.
Lastly, bring warm clothes! It's much colder and windy compared to Malaga.
