Fun and Informative Tour! - Our guide, Danny, was top-notch! He really made this tour of all three sites very enjoyable and educational. His notebook with reference photos was super handy to give us the necessary visual aides of how things looked in the referenced time periods. He's very animated, engaging and despite large swaths of school trips and tourists, kept his cool and all of us organized. When you arrive at the Crystal Pyramid, look for the ORANGE umbrella. This is listed in your confirmation but stating this clearly for all future tour participants. There's usually two groups- an English and a Spanish group. They will organize you before they tours kick-off. Tourists, give yourself about 5-10 minutes extra time to arrive and locate the orange umbrellas. Ensure you have some mobility, including the ability to climb some staircases, handle a slight incline walk and move at a moderate pace. The tour is very well-timed but make sure you have some good walking shoes. My favorite part of the tour was the Alcazaba. So much rich history, interesting stories and hidden design elements that only a tour could inform you of. Thanks again, Danny!

BELLISSIMA - Historic city, founded by the Phoenicians has always had important importance over the centuries and all the conquerors have left traces of significant beauty on the city. Notable parks and "Avenidas" overlooked by beautiful historic buildings, and squares with important monuments. Do not miss a short ride on the surrounding hills to enjoy beautiful panoramic views and beautiful views of the city.

Well worth it - Great tour with insight into the amazing history of Malaga and a tour of the lovely unique cathedral. Took off a star because Nathalia our guide who was personable and lovely and seemed very knowledgeable struggled a bit with her English.

More info needed at time of booking - After getting slightly lost, we arrived at the meeting point 2 minutes after the meeting time. No information was provided after booking to tell us how to find our tour guide. The area was packed with tours and by the time we spoke to several other guides to get information, our guide and group had left without us. After a few frantic phone calls we located our guide but had missed 30 mins of the tour. The guide was lovely and so informative. Catering to such a diverse audience is tough so I appreciate her efforts. I would love to come back to Málaga off season to spend more time in the beautiful city.

Loads of information, difficult to understand. - The knowledge of the guides was impressive and the locations were well worth a visit. However the guides were not native English speakers and their broad Spanish accents meant I probably only caught 30% of what they were saying, even when concentrating hard. Others tourists in the group had the same issues, some people left the group before the tour finished.

Missed the best parts of the Alcazaba - The guides were pleasant and knowledgeable, but the tour missed the most interesting and beautiful parts of the Alcazaba, including the best overlook, which I discovered on my own after departing the tour. Thus I was unable to see the cathedral. 3 hours should have been enough for everything. The guides should spend less time lecturing on history and more time showing more of the Alcazaba or allowing guests more time on their own within the complex.

Choose another tour - Very short tour. A couple of funny moments, usual stuff. A lot of time you are on your own. Also, tour guide left about 10 people behind because they were late for 2 minutes. Very long delays from the organization, something they just not reply at all.
