Hi! My name is Cipriano, I am an official guide who is determined to let the world to know about my area, as I consider it as one of the most beautiful areas in Spain. I was born and raised in Vélez-Málaga, a city in eastern Málaga and capital of my area, which is called la Axarquía. I studied a Degree in Translation and Interpreting and after that, I studied a Masters Degree in Tourism, as I have been always passionate about this sector. Therefore, all my working experience is related to it. I have worked in Germany and all Andalusia as a courier guide, and now I am also an official guide in Andalusia. I own my own company since more than one year ago and it is oriented to show my lovely area and the rest of Andalusia, because as I mentioned before, la Axarquía is worth to be shown. You can find here lots of history (which I am passionate about, too), local traditions and amazing corners, which I am determined you will discover them all. I only travel with small groups of maximal 8 people, as I think this is the best way for all to discover any area we are visiting. Traveling in small groups has allowed me to know people from different backgrounds and to even build strong relationships with them. I am proud to say that many of my customers have eventually become friends. I also like everybody get to know the local life of the area, therefore my tours are oriented to it: we visit small, white and quiet villages, so working with small groups is the best way for locals and outsiders to know each other. I consider also very important to promote the small businesses of the area, such as restaurants, wine cellars, shops or olive oil mills, reason why I always take my customers to places like these. On my tours you will not only find a guide to take you to the best places to be discovered, but also a friend who is willing to assist you in anything you might need. Andalusia is also so worth to be discovered. There are cities such as Ronda, Córdoba or Málaga, that have such an interesting past that you cannot miss them either. I can show you these cities since I have experience on all of them and know all the interesting facts and corners you must know on your visit, too. Thanks to my Mercedes Vito van, I can take you anywhere you can imagine. I am also a driver, so the only thing you have to worry about is to enjoy on my tours. Wine tours, olive oil tours, white villages. . . I can show all of this and so much more. Are you willing to discover it with me? - Official Tour Guide of the Andalusian Government, Andalusian Tourism Registration nº 5175. - Translation and Interpreting Degree (English and German) by Universidad de Málaga. - Masters Degree in Tourism Management by Universidad de Málaga. My courtesy vehicle is a modern and comfortable Mercedes Vito minivan aircon, 9 seater, 2017. I'm the owner of a local travel agency and all my travellers are covered by an insurance of civil liability.

Overview of your Malaga tour

Discover with me three beautiful and interesting villages on the East of the Malaga province located in the Axarquia region. For different reasons, Nerja, Frigiliana and the lost village of El Acebuchal are more than worth to be discovered. Can you guess why? Frigiliana is considered one of the prettiest towns in all of Spain. In fact, it has the the privilege of belonging to the famous 'Association of the Prettiest Towns in Spain'. Let yourself be enchanted by this magical location with me as your private guide! El Acebuchal became 'the village of ghosts' after its inhabitants were forced to flee by Franco's Civil Guard in 1948. It remained abandoned until 1998 when its buildings were restored. On this lovely hamlet you will breath only calm and peace. . . Nerja has been known for years to be one of the favourite villages of the region to spend the holidays. Come with me so that you fall in love with its historical town center, filled with that sailor spirit that has never left the village.

Cipriano was friendly with a nice easy manner and spoke good clear English. He paced the tour to suit the needs of our group and gave informative and interesting commentary. The lunch included in the tour was very good and we enjoyed the whole day.

We visited 3 villages on this tour, Nerja, Fragiliana and Acebuchal. All three were breathtaking! This tour is a must! Cipriano is an excellent tour guide and is extremely knowledgeable about Andalucia. He provides enough background and history to make the tours even more interesting. Cipriano also did a great job of accommodating a few of us that had issues with walking on steep terrain. I would definitely recommend taking any of his tours!

We found Cipriano through Tours By Locals. As we discussed possible tours to take during our port stop in Malaga​, he offered to create a custom tour to Nerja, Frigiliana, and the Lost City of Acebuchal. The tour sounded so unique and special that we jumped at the chance to do it. We were very happy with his services and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone visiting the Andulucia area. He has a wide variety of standard tours available and is obviously willing to work with you if customization
