Excellent visit 100% recommended - The tour I took to visit the Caminito del Rey was excellent, I loved the tour, the experience was something incredible, recommended. I would just like to comment that if you are afraid of heights, suffer from vertigo or something like that, you should take it easy and go at your own pace, everything is super well prepared for you to make this visit. Bring comfortable clothes, a light jacket and tennis shoes since normally the route is first thing in the morning and it is cool but later you get a little warmer due to the walk which is approximately 5 kilometers. At the end of the route you have to continue going down and it makes you take more photos you will need for souvenirs. So have a good trip and enjoy all the beauties that the Costa del Sol offers.

There is more to Spain than beaches :-) - What a fantastic trip this was. I have been wanting to do this for a few years, since I heard about it. I was concerned that I might not be fit enough to do it but it was fine. We had a great guide (I'm afraid I can't remember his name now). He would stop about every ten minutes to give us information and it would mean we could take things at a slower pace and give us time to take photos. It was everything and more than I was expecting.

Caminito del Rey - Caminito del Rey is so so pretty and beautiful. I am glad my hubby and I, we did it. From start to finish everything was very well organised. Janet our guide on the bus was amazing, explained well in English, Spanish and French. After reaching Caminito we were handed over to another guide who was amazing too. Caminito de Rey looks frightening in the videos but it’s not. It’s so pretty.

Amazing experience - We had a great experience here. Definitely worth it if you are staying in Malaga for a few days. Not recommended for people with a fear of heights, but in any other case we definitely recommend it!

Breathtaking experience - The tour guide met us at the bus meeting place and we drove an hour to the site. We had time to grab a cup of coffee and a snack and use the bathrooms before our hike. We really enjoyed the breathtaking views of the rivers/gorges in the Caminito del Rey. The new walkway was fascinating to walk over. The only concern I had was our tour guide spoke in both French and English and her English was a little hard to understand. But we made it work. After the tour was over, there are more food/drink stands to buy something to eat/drink. There were supposed to be bathrooms but they were out of order. Our tour guide stopped at restrooms on our way back to Malaga.

Fantastic experience on the royal road. - Fantastic experience, good guide, we were given earphones so you could hear the guide the whole time. The trip there was also pleasant and the guide was very good in English and had many good anecdotes.

Caminito del Ray - Drove myself from Malaga. Parked at the start of the tour. Walked 1.5km before we got to the ticket booth. We had checked the night before that there were no tickets available, but took the chance. Out of season this is no problem! Fantastic tour with a guide!

Sol Principle - We went to the Sol Principle, hotel was lovely, great breakfast, there was only one pool open, renovation work on the others, dinner was hit and miss some nights then great on other days. This hotel is situated at the Torremolinos end . Its an hour walk to the marina, hotel lovely and clean staff lovely. Please leave yourself plenty of time to check in passport control was crazy, an hour to go through people were missing their flights.

Get a better microphone - We had to sit in back of bus and the microphone did not work well and we did not hear the English description I thought I would catch up with guide to ask questions but she handed us off to another guide and was gone. We could not find the bus to get home. Everyone we asked said we had to take a train back to Malaga and there was no bus We took the train that was 2 hours later
