Everything perfectly organized. Schedule meticulously adhered to. Very competent nice tour guides.But everything already very touristy and overcrowded who is not deterred from walking in groups of about 25 people through dad valley, will still find surely joy in the really impressive landscape.
It's absolutely worth visiting. Fantastic scenery and well organized. One of the highlights of the area.
Great day out using Visitanddo company. Alan was our tour guide and he was great. Bus picked us up in Malaga with very clear directions where to get it. We stopped in mountain village to grab breakfast and continued on to the gorge. It was a top class trip and the walk in total was around 8km.
