Caminito del Rey was a great experience for me and my 15 years old daughter. It was high, hot and memorable. The travel back and forth was very comfortable and well organized. The guide was interesting and entertaining and spoke fluently st least 4 languages!
We got back to our hotel tired and happy. We would do it again tomorrow!

Very early pickup from Marbella (7:25 am), about 40 min rounds to pick up co-travellers from all hotels in Terremolino and Malaga. Bring more water than you would think you need! Freeze it the night before. The hike can be strenuous and the sun is relentless. Overall however, it's more than worth the trip!
Everything was excellent,...

Everything was excellent, the guide Miguel was excellent with his four languages and the driver Diego was excellent too. One suggestion, the pickup point was stated that we were to meet out the front of the San Cristobal Hotel, in fact the bus arrived across the road. If we had not seen other passengers across the road we would have missed the bus. part from that we really enjoyed the tour, thank you to all involved.
