We were delighted with this great tour to the Caminito del Rey. The pick-up in Málaga went really well and we were given a very warm welcome by the tour guides Luiz and Esmeralda. Both guides speak many languages fluently. The bus took us to the start of the entrance portal. During the 70-minute journey to our destination, the tour guide not only gave us the information for the Caminito, but also explained some details about the produce grown in Andalusia and other insights. Once we arrived, we were given a bottle of water and then walked from the bus stop to the entrance gate where we were given a helmet and a safety briefing. The Caminito del Rey is amazing both in terms of views and nature. The guide again gave us some information during the hike. You don't need to be a mountaineer or an experienced hiker to walk this trail. A good pair of light hiking boots or sneakers with good grip is all you need. Almost at the end of the trail, after three hours of walking, you will have to cross a short suspension bridge. If you have a terrible fear of heights, you might want to reconsider this hike. There is no way back :-) All in all, we had fun and would hike with Viajes Pareja again.

Very informative and professional excursion by Lewis and Esmeralda. The pick up in Malaga was perfectly timed and the return journey allowed for those clients who had to get back on a Cruise Ship. El Caminito del Rey is a wonderful experience, go and enjoy!

I think opting for this one is one of my best decisions. Superb sights, exhilarating walk, but quite safe! Esmeralda was a very helpful guide full of information and anecdotes.

An amazing walk culminating in a unique geological vista combined with the exhilarating walking experience along the vertical rock faces.

My husband and I loved visiting Caminito del Rey. It was one of our top ten all time favourite experiences! We rented a car and drove ourselves from Malaga. We are in our sixties and the hike was tiring but quite manageable. I’d recommend buying the tickets ahead of time and doing it without a guide as you can set your own pace. One word of caution, it can get very hot so be sure to bring plenty of water, wear sunscreen and a hat, and stop for breaks along the way. While it says “no backpacks” we were allowed to bring a small one to carry our water. The parking lot is a bit tricky to find if you use gps so better to follow the directions provided. We both highly recommend this experience!

This tour of Caminito Del Rey is an amazing experience. From start to finish it was so well organised and enjoyable. I will definitely book with Viator again.

Had a fantastic day, I booked through Viator. Pick up and drop off went smoothly. I was a little worried about heights but it was fine, I felt safe and secure on the walk. The height I felt was gradual so you become used to it without really noticing. Last bit a few steep steps to climb before going down to finish. Snack shacks at finish with refreshing local orange juice. Toilet break on route to start of walk and interesting explanation of countryside we were passing from our guides Louis and Esmeralda. Guides were great but I choose not stay with them all the way on walk as it is optional and I preferred to go at my own pace and stop to look at different things. Unfortunately I missed the fossil on the cliff towards the end. There are lots of buzzards overhead and spectacular views of cliffs, river, trees, flowers and butterflies. I found it incredible that there were fish living in sealed off areas on the cliff face! Bring some snacks and a drink. Weather was ideal, sunny but not too hot. Scenery was fantastic from start to finish. There were people of all ages on this trip and it is suitable for anyone who can walk and manage some steps. I met some lovely people on the trip and when I got to the finish and looked back at where I had been walking and saw others still walking it was hard to believe I had walked there. Really looks far scarier from a distance. I loved it 🙂

Stunning scenery but not for you if you’re afraid of heights ! Very dramatic and a nice white village stop too. Esmeralda was a very good guide.

Mother nature is amazing - producing such extraordinary landscapes and also a human mastermind to create a pathway through this beautiful, but also very dangerous place!

Was a beautiful day, trip was flawless. Loved the little town we stopped in in the way for bathrooms & coffee. Esmeralda was amazing! Friendly, helpful & knowledgeable. Would highly recommend this trip!

Esmeralda was the most wonderful guide! Everything on the tour was repeated in English, German and Spanish, so it can be a bit much at times but is helpful for so many who don’t speak much English. We stopped for a bathroom break in a small white village however it proved unnecessary as the bathrooms at the start of the caminito trail were clean and modern and in working order. Those who took the unguided option were done an hour and a half (at least) prior to the guided tour. So we were able to get food and drink while we waited but it was hot and sunny and a bit tiresome to wait so long. Returned to Malaga around 5pm.

This is definitely an experience that is worth taking into consideration if you are in Malaga/Costa del Ray. The tour was well organised and the guides were great. Christian and Violeta were fantastic. Keen to share their knowledge and experiences, whilst taking the time to ensure that everyone was feeling safe and happy. And the photos are amazing!

great trip but too many people on the tour and lots of queuing. Tour guides were good and the coach was punctual. Shame it is so commercial already!

The place is magnificent, the hike is not too difficult and not too long. It was well organised, everything was on time and the guides were lovely. I highly recommend it for everybody as a day trip from Malaga.

Our trip was unfortunately cancelled as the Caminito was closed due to inclement weather. The tour operator informed us upfront, offered us alternative dates and as we had to decline those they processed the refund immediately. I'll be happy to book with them again - hopefully we'll have better luck with the weather next time.
