What people love about Andalucia Tours from Malaga
- Moorish Andalucia
First rate from start to finish. Our guide Lidia was knowledgeable, friendly and always found great places to eat. Visited many historic and interesting places in Southern Spain, most notably the Alhambra and Generalife Gardens in Grenada and La Mezquita in Cordoba.A little bit of hiking in Sierra De Grazalema Natural Park, and I could have used more. Out Explore group was congenial and traveled well together
- Andalusian Feelings
The tour was really interesting, an easy way to discover Andalusia. Granada is awesome and Cordoba is small but full of charm. Will definitely come back !!! Thanks to Daniel, he was a wonderful guide; helpful, skilled and knowledgeable! Would love to come back soon
What our customers ask about Andalucia Tours from Malaga
What are the most popular highlights during the first days of tours starting in Malaga?
The first days in Malaga introduce visitors to Spain's coastal cultural hub through carefully curated experiences. The historic 11th-century Alcazaba fortress anchors most itineraries followed by the Picasso Museum which houses over 200 works from the artist's personal collection. The 276-foot Malaga Cathedral stands as a centerpiece in the old town. Most tours include time at Plaza Merced known for its vibrant street art scene and the Gibralfaro viewpoint which offers sweeping views across terracotta rooftops to the Mediterranean. Accommodations typically center around well-appointed hotels like the Soho Boutique Equitativa or the hillside Parador Gibralfaro both positioned near key attractions.
What type of accommodation can I expect in Malaga on these tours?
Malaga's tour accommodations lean toward upscale 4-star properties in the city center. The Soho Boutique Equitativa Hotel sits near the bustling port while the Parador de Malaga Gibralfaro offers elevated city views from its hilltop perch. The Hotel Molina Larios places guests in the heart of the historic district. These properties provide modern rooms air conditioning and daily breakfast. Most hotels put guests within a 10-minute walk of major sites including the Picasso Museum and the Cathedral making them convenient bases for both guided tours and independent exploration.
What are the most common routes taken after departing Malaga?
The classic Andalusian route from Malaga follows a well-tested path through southern Spain's cultural capitals. Most itineraries head first to Granada with stops in Nerja and the Alpujarras villages a journey of about 2-3 hours. From there tours continue to Cordoba (2.5 hours) before reaching Seville (2 hours from Cordoba). Some routes include detours through Ronda and the White Villages. Along the way travelers often stay at established properties like Granada's Hotel Anacapri or Cordoba's Hotel Conquistador which serve as comfortable bases for exploring each city's unique heritage.
What's the best time of year for tours starting in Malaga?
Spring months from March to May and fall months of September and October provide the most pleasant conditions for Malaga-based tours with temperatures hovering between 20-25°C (68-77°F). These periods offer comfortable weather for walking tours through the Alcazaba and historic center with fewer crowds than peak season. Summer brings intense heat particularly in inland cities like Cordoba where temperatures can reach 40°C (104°F). While tours operate year-round properties like Don Pedro and NH Hotel offer essential air conditioning during warmer months.
How much free time is typically included in Malaga-based tours?
Tour schedules generally balance structured activities with independent exploration. The first and last days in Malaga usually include 4-6 hours of unstructured time allowing visitors to discover local cafes explore the beach or wander through museums at their own pace. Many itineraries such as the Andalusia Highlights program set aside full afternoons for personal discovery in Granada and Seville. Hotels like Silken Al-Andalus and H10 Palacio Colomera serve as central bases making it simple to explore independently between guided excursions.
How long do tours typically stay in Malaga before moving to other destinations?
Standard itineraries allocate 1-2 nights in Malaga as an introduction to Andalucia. This typically allows for one complete day exploring essential sites including the Picasso Museum Carmen Thyssen Museum and La Concepción Botanical Garden. Most visitors stay at central properties like Hotel Malaga Alameda Centro or Hotel Sol Guadalmar which provide easy access to the city's cultural corridor. This initial stay gives travelers enough time to experience Malaga's highlights before continuing their journey through southern Spain.
