Caminito del Rey with Pickup from Malaga City

It was a difficult day for our guide as we had torrential rainfall as we queued for the walk. He however left us standing in the deluge for 5 minutes before telling us to take cover. When the trek concluded and we walked to the rendezvous site for the coach, we had to wait for almost 40 minutes for the pick up as the bus was waiting at a different place. He blamed the bus diver but surely the guide was in charge of the trip and should have made sure that the driver knew what to do. The actual walk was fantastic but the organisation could have been a lot better.

The trip was not cancelled despite heavy rain and a little thunder. We were left in front of the entrance in heavy rain without information. Everyone got soaked despite the rain. When the rain stopped, the guide took us through at a high pace, almost without the opportunity to stop and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The last part of the tour was the boardwalk closed due to landslide risk (stones) because of the rain, so we were led through a tunnel in the mountain. We had a feeling of being whipped through the whole trip at a high pace. Long wait time at the women's restroom at the exit. Opportunity to sit a little before the guide took us up to the bus, which turned out to still be at the place where we were dropped off, so we had to wait half an hour for it to arrive. The guide should have made sure to have it under control, but the bus driver maybe didn't expect the trip to be completed because of the weather! Absolutely incredibly poorly organized and in no way acceptable that we were left without information in heavy rain for half an hour. It says otherwise that the trip will be cancelled in case of bad weather, and that you will then be offered another date or get a refund. But then the company earns no money... I was on the same tour 3 years ago, it was a completely different and good experience, where there was time to enjoy the beautiful scenery and the safety distance between visitors was maintained. And good information along the way.

From booking straight through to drop off, everything was excellent. The pick up was easy to find and the bus, being air-conditioned, was really comfortable and the journey to the Caminito was really smooth. The driver was really good around those country roads and bends. Our guide, Louis, was gentle with his bitesize snippets of the history of the Caminito. The trail itself is gentle and you can be any age or ability to do this - trust me, I have chronic sciatica and I managed it no probs. I do have a fear of heights and it was scary at times but everything is safely built and secure. It is an amazing achievement to have built this trail and the two suspension bridges are epic! I was proud of myself for having crossed the first one at 160m above the river. It must be seen to be beleived and to see the ancient geology was amazing!!! There is a nice little area at the end of the walk to have snacks e.g. hot dogs, burgers etc and you're able to buy souvenirs. Overall, this is a must do activity when you visit Malaga, especially on a Sunday as the city is very quiet. 10/10!!!

Caminito del Rey is fabulous and should not be missed. Our issue was with the tour itself. We could not hear anything but garbled sounds the entire three hour walk. Most people in our group simply removed their headphones. The half hour stop right after leaving Malaga to make us buy things at a store was absolutely ridiculous. But the biggest issue was the absolute zero information we received because we couldn’t hear.

The guide Enrique had a sense of humor, was interesting, and was very fluent in English and German. The guide during the tour was also very much appreciated. Super beautiful scenery. Very beautiful experience. Highly recommended.

A full bus from Malaga and an hours bus journey to get there. A long walk from bus to start, a long, long walk along the cliffs and a long walk back to bus! Exilerating views and a cheeky happy guide made it a great day.

Really well organized! Sweet guide and the trip lived up to the description! Can highly recommend it!

The route is overrated. Only the sections with walkways and suspension bridges are worth it; the rest is just filling time with explanations about the engineer and the local structures until it reaches three hours, when it can be done in about 50 minutes. The guide was pleasant and fun. There is a pre-established stop before arriving at the place at an arranged bar where a lot of time is wasted.

Beautiful experience, absolutely a must-do if you are in Malaga. Not dangerous at all, but at the end of the route there is a stretch on the road to do that turns out to be a bit more tiring because it is slightly uphill and in the sun, but still doable.

Prompt pick up, well organised trip. Knowledgeable and friendly guide Louis- a thoroughly enjoyable day.
