Best Hike Ever! - I had an amazing time trekking at Caminito del Rey! I have met two other solo travelers and the funny tour guide, Pablo! These people made the experience more fun! Caminito del Rey won’t disappoint you, so I highly recommend that you book this tour!

November trek - Hi - parking is much easier than the website indicates - we parked at the visitor centre which was closed. Washrooms there are good, and they had toilet paper. We got there about 90 minutes early, which was good as we missed the 1st bus and had to wait in gale force winds for the next one - tail end of Hurricane Melissa. Got off at the restaurant - pls note that the long route was closed but no notification at the tunnel entrance - we had to walk back the way the bus had driven, about 300 m. Met the guides on the other side. My fear of heights isn’t as bad as it used to be - my vertigo kicks in if I don’t have something to hold on to, so I was fine on this hike - worst was the final suspension bridge due to the extreme winds. The hike itself is not long, the distance is the walking in and out. We did the official guided tour as there were no unguided tickets available- my only complaint was feeling rushed as we were not able to easily take pictures unless we dropped to the end of the pack - you get a radio with earphones, so this is possible which we realized a bit into the hike. It was busy, esp for early November - could not imagine the congestion during prime time or discomfort when hot - weather had around 20 degrees with cloud and winds and did not need the recommended water but if it’s hot there is little shade. I am glad I did it but probs wouldn’t do it again.

The hike is worth the trip, Naturanda Turismo Ambiental needs to manage better. - POSITIVE: The hike was wonderful. The Caminito del Rey is not for those afraid of heights or need fully paved areas to walk. The walkways are narrow so in some areas only one person can proceed at a time.
I hiked ahead of my group, finishing at least 30 minutes ahead, as I am a fast walker and not every scene requires a stop for a photo. Our guide did not provide headphones so we did not hear much about the area other than what we were told during the drive and walk to the waiting area. That is fine with me personally.
NEGATIVE: I would not select Naturanda again as a tour company. The tour pickup from Hotel Don Paco was 10:00 which is much too late for the driving time and hike so you return over 12 hours later. We were a mix of French speaking and English speaking with different guides/translators. The French group started their hike 1 hour after the English speakers which means there was a wait for them to return. There was also a 2 hour delay waiting for the coach to return for the trip back to Seville.
I sent a message during the excursion regarding my displeasure with the long wasteful itinerary, (I also heard others say the same), but was told that the wait wouldn't be that long. The guide directed us to a hotel with a bar and restaurant and we waited for the others to arrive. Boarding the coach it was pitch black and there were no other groups remaining.

Adventure not to be missed - We loved the walk at Camino del ray an amazing adventure
We felt that there was a lot of time wasted and lunch spot only had 1 restaurant that was full and couldn’t take us
Suggestions would be to have lunch in Osuna where more options where available

An optional day trip if you have spare extended days - Quite a bit of waiting time. The entire trip could have been done in 6.5 hours, including the 2-hour coach journey each way, instead of 8. 5 hours. When we reached the 1st rest stop, we waited for 40 mins to get to the start point for toilets and helmets. At the start point, there are so many groups queueing to start that it takes another 30 mins or so.
Other than that, the waiting/break times after the walk and en route back to Seville was fair.
The walk is very easy. Broken up into 3 parts and the guide (not the same as the guide from the activity provider) would describe the geographical features, engineering history and fauna you'll see in each section so you get breaks in between. Only the last section is where you have to walk on a see-through metal bridge -- apart from that, one typically would not have wobbly legs.
If you need food, bring your own. All vendors are just cashing in on bored/hungry/thirsty tourists and can't really cook.
Quite expensive if you consider the low cost of providing the activity. It is just payment for the coach travel, the accompanying guide, and entrance fees.

Make the tour description accurate! - The Caminito del Rey itself was a very good experience. However, the write up on the Viator description clearly stated that, though the tour went Tuesday, Friday and Sunday, only on Sunday would there be a stop in Asuna. We intentionally chose Friday so we would do the caminito “in the morning” then lunch and back to Seville. Instead we did go to Asuna, then a lunch time at the Caminito site where we killed another 90 min before finally assembling with our tour leader for the hike. We had a limited time in Seville and so much time was wasted doing things we didn’t want to do. Please make the descriptions accurate! We would have sourced another tour company as there were several there doing half day trips, in order to shorten our excursion day.

Mixed feelings - The hike itself was absolutely amazing. Maria our tour guide for that part was outstanding. That part I would rate 5 stars. Prior to that we had a different tour guide who gave us minimal information. He walked us around a town. Told us no information about what we were seeing and then brought us to a little bar for food and drinks. We were under the impression that this was where we were having lunch. The bar was so tiny and could not accommodate the amount of people on the tour and had very limited food options. Our next stop was Caminito de Rey. Back in the bus, an hour later we arrived at Caminito del Rey and were told to eat and drink before our hike. Again, the restaurant there could not accommodate the amount of people arriving on the tour buses and was turning people away. There was so much confusion regarding when we were having lunch and where. The two other tour guides to bring everyone on the hikes were late and the. We finally were able to go on our hike. Once we started on the hike, Maria saved the day. She was friendly, personable, and the hike was the whole reason for the excursion anyway. We forgot about the first half of the day. The views were stunning. If I could change the excursion, I would have the bus bring us right to the hike and skip the town and make this a shorter day.

Unprofessional, disrespectful, and a total waste of a day. - We booked a day trip from Seville to Caminito del Rey with a 9:50 AM meeting time. The guide did not show up. We spent over an hour calling the provider and messaging them, but no one answered. We were left standing in the winter cold with zero information.
At 10:05 AM, a message via GetYourGuide claimed a replacement was coming, but they gave no ETA. We waited until after 11:00 AM. Since we only had a few days in Seville, losing the entire morning meant it was too late to plan any alternative trip. Our day was effectively ruined.
The most insulting part? Three minutes after we finally gave up and left, they messaged saying they arrived. We told them we were turning back and would be there in 5 minutes, but they refused to wait and drove off. They expected us to wait over an hour for them in the cold, but they couldn't give us 5 minutes of grace.
Don’t be fooled by previous positive reviews. A company shows its true colors by how they handle problems. Their lack of communication and total lack of respect for their customers' time is unacceptable. They took a huge portion of our limited time in Seville and wasted it. Avoid this provider.

Cancelled - It was canceled at last minute due to weather . They told us after visiting the office and no prior communication. It Would have helped if they told us at least in the early morning. By the time it was cancelled at 10am most of the other trips are started ,so we couldn’t reschedule.
