Hello dear experiencer !! "The only luggage a traveller needs is sensitivity and the ability to empathize". I always start my tours by quoting Jose Saramago, who once wrote, and I find is a beautiful way of travel, not only takes us to new destinations, it also transforms us. As a passionate lover of art, culture, and history, I have dedicated my career to designing tourism experiences that go beyond the conventional, connecting travelers with the essence of each place. It all started when I was a kid back in my hometown. Every time friends or family were visiting, I liked to wander with them through the streets and show them the wonders. It developed into a custom and eventually my career, and what I have been doing for a living for almost 20 years. I combine educational and entertaining tours, excursions, shore excursions, and customized visits, adapting to your needs and preferences. Join me on this journey and savour the taste Malaga and its province, a melting pot of cultures, religions, arts, and gastronomy that this region has inherited for three millennia and that is still very tangible. From the Phoenicians, to the Romans or the Moors, we will be able to admire outstanding landmarks. Looking forward to sharing this adventure with you soon! We've got places to be and wonders to see! Thank you! Jaime

Overview of your Malaga tour

Is there anything more Spanish than tapas? Discover the Mediterranean diet — a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage — on a walk blending history, flavors, and local life. We’ll begin at Atarazanas Food Market, former Arabic shipyard, now a vibrant hub of fresh seafood, meats, and produce. Mingle with locals and soak in the authentic atmosphere. Then, step back in time with a visit to Málaga’s old city walls, hidden beneath a five-star hotel — and imagine guarding the city like an Arab soldier. Finally, we’ll relax at Colmado 93, a beloved tavern where my grandfather once filled bottles of house wine. Open for over 100 years, it’s the perfect spot to enjoy hot and cold tapas, local wines, or vermouth — like a true Malagueño. There is a chance we don't find a table to sit down. Reservations cannot be made but that the typical way. Time tables available are more quiet except Fridays and Saturdays afternoon. I am always flexible, open to changes and adapting to your preferences, whatever your heart desires.
