Don’t hesitate book Marbella tour, you won’t regret it
Our tour guide Sofi was so engaging and enthusiastic about the history of Marbella. Lots of interesting facts, it was great to understand how traditions came about. The pace was just right for everyone in our group as we have mixed mobility issues. I would definitely recommend the tour. Thank you for a great time.

The tour that didn’t happen
The tour guide did not show. We arrived at 6.30 for 7 pm tour and waited by the fountain meeting point. Despite a WhatsApp at 6.35 saying guide would be there at 7 she wasn’t. We responded to say we were already there, at 7.15 we messaged to see what was happening, we called but no answer so at 7.30 we messaged to say we hoped she was ok and we left. At 7.41 we were messaged to say they had waited for us and gone without us! As we were there on the lookout for an hour we can’t imagine how we were not seen. We are awaiting a refund as declined a tour the next day as we had travelled in for the tour and are not staying In Marbella.
