Definitely recommend for all ages with a moderate level of fitness (as you are paddling for over 2 hours with some stops and slower bits through rocks etc. Enjoyed going through the small waterfall, which we were lucky to have as it was August.”

“We reallly liked the tour to Nerja and Frigiliana. The ride was totally relaxed, the seats of the bus seemed a little bitte old, i think it's a typical problem because there is a lot of sun shining on these vehicles. Carlos was the best guide we could hope for, full of energy, you could not escape the good vibes because of him! We definitly would book another tour.”

They found dolphins for us to see close up. We spent about 10-15mins with them before heading back towards the Maro Waterfall. We had a great day out. Thank you”
