“We had a fantastic trip in Caminito Del Rey. The landscape is simply phenomenal, and the guide was informative and knew a lot about the region. It was a particularly windy day when we visited, and so we did lose a bit of what the guide was saying, as they give everyone radio receivers and earbuds to enable you to hear the guide at a distance. This would probably be fine on a still day however. We did feel that we were a bit rushed on the walk, we understood that there was a lot to see but it would have been nice to stop for a few moments at…”

“caminito del Rey is not to be missed, but this tour company should give everyone a complete refund. Fifteen minutes late to start and then we were driven to a town and told we had an hour and 40 minutes to kill. We were then told we'd be getting back at around 8:30 instead of 5pm. We got back well after 9. The company knew we could not begin our tour on time and didn't let us know until we were in the 1st town. The whole day was wait wait wait. Just awful.”

Catherine, Stefano, and Carlos have all earned warm praise for their guiding.

“Breathtaking experience. This is a long journey on the coach, in my opinion, well worth it. I would not like to do this experience when it is very hot. This is reviewed at the end of March 24C temperature. There are simple toilets at the start and end of this walk, which takes approximately 3 hours with a guide pointing out items of interest. Numbers are controlled over the highest bridge , you just have to wait your turn, There was also a guide near the bridge taking photos of you just in front of the bridge (free) using your device. the photos I saw were a great memento. The…”

My spouse who is not a fan of lines was certainly restless. We did enjoy the view and sights. I feel we may have been able to do this on our own in less time.”

“We stayed on September 20, 2025. Tour organized from Malaga. Honestly you could also do it independently by taking a bus from the station Maria Zambrano Malaga .. however beautiful experience. The thrill of walking on the catwalks with hundreds of meters below. Beautiful views. Try it for those going to Malaga. Remember comfortable shoes. People wearing Sanit slippers or flip-flops are not accepted. We spent 50,00€ each round trip coach, guide and entrance ticket to the park. If you go independently the price is 10,00 the bus, 18,00€ the entrance to the walk. Half day time. Not recommended when it is so hot. Nice experience.Auto-translated”

“Caminito del Rey is amazing and I highly recommend doing it. We went in the summer and it was hot but we got lucky with a lot of nice breeze! I am sure there are less expensive ways to get to the path but this worked for our group and situation. It was helpful to have the guide get us to the right place once we arrived. The driver/guide is not your guide on the path...which was fine.”
