Hello from Malaga! Thank you very much for visiting my profile, it is a pleasure to accompany you through our region! I came to Spain when I was a child and have been living continuously in Andalusia for more than 35 years. Curious as I am, from the beginning I explored the different provinces of this fascinating region and I continue to closely follow all the changes and developments in this fascinating community. In my younger years, I studied business, worked in fashion and hospitality, and for many years I combined my work as a guide with audiovisual productions as a location scout, thanks to my extensive knowledge of the region. In the last 10 years, however, I have focused mainly on private travelers. After many years of leading groups as a guide and tour leader, I prefer to show our region in a more personalized way, trying above all to avoid the overcrowding that is so common today. Of course, there are top tourist attractions where you'll always find many other visitors, but I know perfectly well how to avoid the crowds. However, there are still less-visited places where you can discover authenticity and traditions. All my published tours have high ratings, but there are still many places I'd love to suggest, on a tour completely tailored to your preferences. Of course, there are tours that are always highly sought after, such as the Alhambra in Granada, Ronda, and of course our city of Malaga, which in recent years has become one of the most popular destinations. But don't forget that there are many more possibilities. I'd be delighted to suggest the most suitable option for your interests, adapted to your family (especially when several generations are traveling together). Don't hesitate to contact me for your stay in our region!

For all Shore excursions and tours for more than 3 pax I use a local provider for vehicles of all sizes. (Minivan, minibus and can arrange a bus for larger groups.) If you have a rental car at your disposal we can agree the use of it or a meeting place at a convenient place. **** Alhambra in Granada sells out quickly! Please make sure to contact me with sufficent time in advance! 3 months prior to the date of your visit is recommendable.

Once we leave the highway, a winding mountain road brings us to a medieval fortified city, perched on top of a hill, overlooking the mountains, the Mediterranean and on clear days to the straight of Gibraltar and Africa (views depend on external factors like wind a weather conditions!). Step back in time when you enter this fortified city on foot and find in the interior a labyrinth of narrow streets and the typical white washed houses of Andalusia. The visit of the village lasts 45 to 60 minutes, and then a snack break is mandatory, in order to taste local specialities, like the goat cheese, the olive oil, the wines of Malaga... this village is still not overrun by tourism and is areal gem.
