Great day exploring the Caminito. Guy was very knowledgeable and organized. It was a long hike but very interesting…..I would do it again.

Coming from Norway we are quite used to spectacular nature and views, but Caminito del Rey is supercool! The canyon is narrow and it's cool to be walking high above along the mountain side. Looking up you will also see huge vultures soaring through the air. It's a fairly easy walk. Don't need any experience, but bring a good amount of water as it get's quite hot. The platform that you walk on is perfectly safe and stable, almost as walking on a road. You will not get an extreme sport feeling, but you can feast your eyes on beautiful nature.
Julia Travel is trying to hard to be cost efficient with the arranged transport as the bus picks up people at way too many places. From Marbella the trip could take an hour, but it took 3 hours.
Also the radios, more specifically the earbuds, are of too poor quality. We struggled understanding everything the guide talked about. Cred to the guide as she mentioned a lot of interesting stuff, but she also pushed the speed a little bit too much. So much that you can't really enjoy the trip as much as I'd liked (taking pictures, enjoying the views).
Will absolutely recommend this trip, but it would have been even better if the radio and the transport issues had been better.

This was a great trip. A coach picked us up on time and then we had an English speaking guide when we got there who was very informative. Views were amazing and the walk round was very easy for any age.
The only gripe I had was the lack of information regarding what time and place we were to be picked up. Most of us were very confused as to where to go so if you go make sure you find that out before you go off on the tour.

great day trip in Caminito del Rey. The stop in Ardales was useless since everything was closed except for a coffee shop. No time to visit the castle.

Our guide was nice, but it felt like the group was too big and a few people slowed us up so we had to wait. Our guide should have given the tour, not being pawned off to the guides at Alhambra, who were very nice and informative.

Amazing experience & something that should not be missed! Only bad part was the many hours on the bus as we were the first pick up & last drop off of the day! Loved going to the small authentic Spanish town too! Thank you for a very memorable day!
