Our guide was very knowledgeable, but she spoke fairly fast and was (at times) hard to hear/understand. The Roman Theatre was closed on Mondays so we were only able to look from a viewpoint. The Alcazaba was worth the trip. We finished our tour at the site as we weren’t continuing with the afternoon part. This gave us time to wander back down from the Alcazaba at our leisure.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear that you found our guide knowledgeable and that you enjoyed the Alcazaba. We also appreciate your comments regarding the pace and volume of the explanations, as this feedback helps us improve the experience for future visitors. We’re sorry that the Roman Theatre was closed during your visit, but we hope you still enjoyed discovering Málaga with us. Thank you again for choosing our tour!
Our tour guide Danny was amazing! He was funny, engaging and informative. The fortress is gorgeous and the rich history behind Alcazaba is riddled with wins and loses.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that you had such a great time with Danny and enjoyed his fun, engaging and informative way of bringing the history of the Alcazaba to life. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to him. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to see you again in Málaga!

3 stars because The guide was knowledgeable about the history which I could have read on line. Most of the place has been renovated or reconstructed. Maybe 10% original. I would only go here if I had time to waste AND would do this on my own.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found our guide knowledgeable. We understand that everyone experiences historical sites differently. Our guided tours aim to go beyond information that can be found online, providing historical context, interpretation, stories and details that help visitors better understand the significance and evolution of the site. We’re sorry that the experience did not fully meet your expectations, but we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective.
Tour was good, but it would have been better if we had been given headsets to be able to hear the tour guide. Because of the size of the group, we sometimes were too far away to hear her and we missed out on a lot of information that she was telling us.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour overall. We’re sorry that you had difficulty hearing the guide at certain points, especially due to the size of the group. We understand how important it is to hear all the explanations in order to fully enjoy the experience, and we’ll take your comments into consideration as we continue improving our tours. Thank you for joining us and for helping us improve!
This tour was €20, which is excellent value. At the same time, you have to expect that the quality will not be the same as a €50 tour. Two things to note, the meeting point is at the railings BESIDE the glass pyramid and not AT the pyramid as advertised. Neither the helpline nor the chat box were answered when I had an issue with the same. Our tour lasted just short of one hour.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that you found the tour to be excellent value. We’re sorry for the confusion regarding the exact meeting point and, especially, that you were unable to reach us when you needed assistance. We understand how frustrating this can be at the start of a tour, and we will review both the meeting instructions and our communication channels. Regarding the duration, timings may vary slightly depending on the pace of the group and the circumstances on the day. We appreciate your comments and will take them into account as we continue improving the experience. Thank you for joining us!
It is very informative even for someone that doesn't like history that much. We enjoyed it a lot. The children also learned lots to tell people when they get back home. The tour guide Natalia was great.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that the whole family enjoyed the experience and that even those who aren’t big history fans found the tour interesting and entertaining. It’s especially wonderful to know that the children learned so much and have plenty of stories to share back home! We’ll be very happy to pass your kind words on to Natalia. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you and your family again soon! ❤️
The Guide was Not at the Meeting Point. We left Without the Sightseeingtour. We are very sad, because we waited very Long before we left.
We are very sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your disappointment after waiting at the meeting point and being unable to take the tour. This is certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We would appreciate the opportunity to review what happened with your booking and the guide assigned that day. Please contact us through your reservation details so we can investigate the situation properly. Our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.
Fabiola was fantastic!! She told a lot of history of the city itself, along with the Roman theater and the fortress. It was worth so much more than we paid and a must see!!
