★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 711 reviews · 3 hours · from $46Our pick

Guided Caminito del Rey hike in Andalusia with entrance tickets and helmets. Walk 7.7 km over El Chorro Gorge in 3 hours.

“A very exciting tour with a guide who was excited about the area and it´s history. I would have preferred the guide had talked a bit slower, because it was sometimes difficult to hear what he was saying, since he both had a spanish accent and talked very fast. (Thatswhy I give him 4 stars instead of 5.)”

2.Caminito del Rey: Trekking Tour with Hiking Guide

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 295 reviews · 3.5 hours · from $53

Hike Caminito del Rey above the Guadalhorce River with a guide, entrance included, 3.5 hours, amazing canyon views near Málaga.

“Amazing walk, stunning views and landscape. If you can do this long walk it is well worth it, however, other tour groups appeared to be getting far more information stops and our guide had no interest in keeping the group together, she was unconcerned about the slower members of the group. It’s not advertised as a walk which has to be completed in a certain time, but the pace was quick. I have always been led to believe that a group such as this should go at pace of slowest walker, not the case here. Members at back of group could have been struggling and guide would have had no…”

3.Caminito del Rey Trekking Walkway

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 100 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $54

Small-group guided Caminito del Rey with tickets included, history made clear, and cliff-top views about 100m above the river.

“Caminto Del Rey is not to be missed! This is a unique way to take in the Mountain View’s and see some of the natural areas of Spain. We booked this tour because the guided tours through the park were sold out and we really wanted to see this area. Booking with this tour company may have been a waste of money because the only thing the guide did was meet us in the parking lot and walk us to the park entrance- something we could have figured out on our own. Use caution when booking as the tour starts at at El Kiosko and parking is nearly impossible to…”

Hike El Saltillo Gorge from Malaga, starting in a white village with a local guide, geology stops, picnic, and a summer river swim.

“This was a great vacation experience! I was part of a small group including hikers from Romania and Brazil. We had wonderful conversations, learning about each other and our countries—an unexpected bonus! We hiked up through a white city with Alphonso providing the history of the area and its agriculture. We then followed the path of an ancient aqueduct back into the mountains. Alphonso was knowledgeable of the flora, fauna and geology. It was a great hike to a mountain waterfall and swimming hole, where a picnic was provided. I highly recommend this hike and any other by Malaga Activa!”

Hike Cliffs of Maro Natural Park from Malaga, visit an Arab vigil tower, then snorkel and swim at a secluded beach.

“Amazing activity; nice hike with beautiful views topped with snorkelling in a super warm, secluded bay with many fish. Alfonso is great, very relaxed yet totally responsible and alway in control. He broke the monotonicity of the flat part of the hike with a botany lesson where we learned to recognize mango & avocado trees, sugar canes, chilli moya (spelling ok? we did not know at all this one), and much more. This is a relatively easy hike, just a tiny bit challenging for people who never did any hikes before only because the path is narrow and occasionally one slides on the dry dirt. This activity is totally worth…”
