The tour was great. Pick-up from the meeting point was easy. The guide on the bus was fine. A different guide, speaking English, provided plenty of interesting facts. The views were breathtaking, and crossing two suspension bridges was an unforgettable experience. The only minor drawback was that the pace was a bit too fast. But I definitely recommend it.
Thank you very much for your recommendation! We’re delighted that the Caminito del Rey left such a great impression on you. We also appreciate your constructive feedback, which helps us continue refining the experience for future visitors. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure with Visitanddo!
Well run. Mica was a great guide. Very cool experience. August is very hot so plan for heat and go earlier in day if possible.
Thank you for your review! We’re glad you enjoyed the experience and that Mica made such a positive impression. August can be especially hot, so your advice about preparing for the heat is very useful for future visitors.

The guide was fabulous with all the explanations about the history of the trail, the fauna, flora, and everything one could imagine about this place. While you walk and enjoy the views, you listen to the guide through the headphones, very comfortable.
¡Muchas gracias por tu valoración! Nos alegra saber que las explicaciones del guía y el sistema de audio te permitieron conocer mejor la historia y el entorno del Caminito del Rey mientras disfrutabas cómodamente del recorrido y sus increíbles vistas.
A fantastic experience! Wonderfuland rewarding, although the high temperature. The guides were friendly and very professional.
Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed such a rewarding experience despite the high temperatures. Your kind words about the guides and their professionalism mean a lot to us, and we’ll be happy to share them with the team.
Amazing place! Well worth a visit. The travel to and from was organised and worked out well. The tour guide was helpful and informative on the coach, but once the walk started we didn’t see them again until the end. Fantastic scenery though! Had a great time. The suspension bridges were fun, the first one was really high! Great shops and cafes at the end Highly recommended going.
Thank you for your detailed review! We’re glad you enjoyed the spectacular scenery and that the transport was well organised. We’re sorry the guide was not present during the walk, as guests should feel supported throughout the experience. We’ll review this with our team. Thank you for recommending the Caminito del Rey!
The visit was phenomenal. Although the trip to get there was endless. Many stops. But the time it actually took to get there was not indicated. On the other hand, the page indicated that I would get a 10% discount, which was ultimately not applied to me.
Muchas gracias por compartir tu experiencia. Nos alegra que disfrutaras de la visita, aunque lamentamos que la duración del trayecto y las distintas paradas no estuvieran suficientemente claras antes de reservar.Refrente al 10% de descuento, le informamos que es valido unicamente para reservas hechas en nuestra web. (En otras plataformas no es valido, posiblemente ese haya sido el motivo.)
The day trip was amazing, really the highlight of our stay in Malaga. Shirley (our guide) was very kind and she made everything to make us feel good. The organization was at at high level. Totally recommended.
Thank you for such a wonderful recommendation! We’re thrilled the excursion became a highlight of your time in Málaga. Shirley will be delighted to hear your kind words, and we’re very happy that her care and the organisation helped make the day so special.
We really enjoyed our trek, it’s around 8k with some small hills to walk. We left Benalmadena at 7am with a couple of pick ups en route. We enjoyed the experience but the guide (Janet) was quite rude at times and our driver was cursing at other drivers which wasn’t great.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re pleased you enjoyed the route, but we’re sorry that the attitude of the guide and the driver’s language affected the experience. This does not reflect the professional standards we expect, and we will review your comments with the team.
