    We had to change the date of our tour with short notice, and tour operator was incredibly helpful and worked out a solution for us on a Sunday no less (I was doubtful we would even get a response on a Sunday)! We ended up getting a private tour with a knowledgeable & friendly guide, Jose, who was very accommodating. The highlight of the trip was visiting the caves - -this impressed even our hard-to-please teens. If you can, combine this trip with a lunch beach-side and a dip into the ocean in town itself of Nerja

    Cipriano is the best guide I have ever been around. Of say 25 guides over the years I’ve used, he is the best! Knowledgeable, experienced, and his catering to the tourists (us) was beyond expectations! All at the right price.

    A big thank you to Mel and Ann for a fanatic enjoyable 4 hour boat trip.

    Nothing was off the menu - with swimming wherever we fancied - a fanatic tour of the Torrox and Nerja cost and Cava / Beers and the most amazing and tasty sandwiches.

    Despite only having less then 30 minutes of our trip left when our 8 year old son asked to have a snorkel and swim - Mel was fantastic and obliged.

    I cannot rate Costa Boat Trips highly enough and the website chat was timely and excellent too.

    We will be back next year and another shout out to Andy who was excellent during our initial enquiry.

    BOOK THIS AS FAST AS YOU CAN!

    This was the absolute highlight of our two weeks of vacation in Spain! Five and a half hours of pure fun, laughs, and smiles.

    You will be given a pick-up point when you book your adventure. You will also get a fun reminder the day before - pretty cool. Your host will be there on time to pick you up and take you up the beautiful mountains.

    Your host - in our case, David - is extremely knowledgeable and professional. They know the area very well and will give you some very interesting, valuable, and even funny information about it during the beautiful drive.

    When you arrive at the destination in the mountains, your host hooks you up with great-quality equipment - all carefully checked beforehand - and starts the hike. The hike soon becomes an amazing climb and zip line route up and around the mountain. I am warning you, there will be several breathtaking views along the way. We even saw eagles!

    The climbing and zip-lining are challenging - but not too challenging. Everyone who wants a thrill and a bit of outdoor fun can do this. You have the most amazing host with you. David is ready to cheer, guide, and help all the way. It feels very safe from the beginning to the end.

    At the end, your host brings out cold drinks (yes, also a darn good cold beer!) and sweet and savory snacks to finish it all off.

    Thank you, David, for creating a core memory with us. This day is one for the memory books.

    Do not hesitate. Book this adventure. Now. Go!

    Exceptional! Not only is David extremely calm, kind and makes everyone feel safe, he’s also very knowledgeable. He knows the mountains and the region to a strong level and his a fantastic guide for this type of adventure. He also speaks multiple languages and his sense of humour makes everyone feel at ease. I highly recommend this service! The via Ferrata is fun and accessible and the views are just incredible!

    David went above and beyond to make our kayaking experience a highlight of our holiday! We chose the kayaking and snorkelling along the coast tour, from Maro to Nerja for our family of 2 parents and 6 young adults and we had a great time. David's English was amazing and he made all of the participants feel at ease and included. We did not struggle physically with the tour but I would say that you have to have a good level of fitness to kayak in the sea for any length of time. David's knowledge of the local area was vast and he provided just the right amount of information during the tour. We all enjoyed seeing the natural caves from the sea, unfortunately due to the current climate, the waterfalls had all dried up but it didn't spoil our tour. There were refreshments to enjoy when we arrived back to Maro beach and David went above and beyond by transporting the 6 of us in his minivan from our accommodation to the beach and back. There was also safe storage for bags and phones at the beach. We would not hesitate to use this trip provider again!!

    Although only myself and one other walker that accompanied our guide, it was such a great trek. A little dubious how I would be on an 8 Km trek in a river ankle high in cold water, and deeper at times, but heck, it was great. So eased I bit the bullet and went for it. Due to only being the three of us, it was great, the pace was easy, didn't have to wait for the slow ones so to speak, so it was at our own pace. Not a difficult trek, very gradule incline, so not too taxing. Glad i did it, water although cold, felt warm in moments. Great scenery, camera will not do the trek justice. Get out there and do it. Amazing. Thanks Julio, sorry if I have spelt you name wrong.

    DO NOT PAY for this experience. Get a cab to destination, ask for Rio Chillar, they will take you to the start of the trail where you will walk for about 30 mins before reaching the beginning of the beautiful water flow. It is stunning. If it is boiling hot you will be cooked down by walking this path. There is one route. You will come across the first waterfall another half hour in which u can drink fresh water from or fill up your bottle. Then keep going and you will find an open pool section that is highlighted by the heavens. It is gorgeous and you can sit in the pool and relax before heading back. We took a few sandwiches which I highly Recommend as u get hungryyyy. We didn’t go the hole way but as we passed i asked a Spanish lady what she recommended and she said it isn’t really worth going the hole way. We had an amazing time and it wasn’t too far from where we were staying. It was hard to get a cab back so ended up walking a half hour to billingar beach and getting snacks and cocktails.

    Our guide Dante was really helpful and kind, he spoke both in spanish and english as our group had some spanish speaking people, it was very impressive how he managed to handle changing between the languages.

    He also talked us through the different areas we stopped at. We first stopped at Nerja where we had an hour or so to enjoy the weather and views, take photos, have ice cream, we then went to visit the caves which was pretty cool. After the caves, visit we stopped for lunch and had some time to spend at the beach, the last stop was at a monumental park.

    Dante also told us about some of his childhood memories which was nice and some of his interests in some legends of the city. He was very friendly, and I definately recommend going on this tour if you are wanting to do something. The tour was around 8 to 10 hours so very good to keep you busy. We were also picked up and dropped off at our hotel which is a plus!

    The tour was wonderful and an absolute highlight of our vacation. We were a total of 6 people. The group quickly came together thanks to the very friendly tour guide Michael. He told everything that was worth knowing in a very entertaining, humorous and competent manner. He led us to very beautiful places and the highlights of the area worth seeing. The Nerja Cave is incredibly fantastic, huge, cathedral like and a must see. The beaches are just great with crystal clear, shimmering turquoise water. Lunch was very good too. A clear recommendation from us✨👍Many thanxxx to Michael from Silvia and Abdo
