All our guides are fully accredited by the Regional Government of Andalusia.

Why choose our Free Walking Tour
There are many ways to discover Málaga, but these are the reasons why travellers choose our Free Walking Tour.
Passionate local guides
We are local guides who not only know Málaga, we live it every day. We help you experience the city in an authentic and meaningful way, sharing details, anecdotes and curiosities you won’t find online or in a traditional guidebook.
Unique stories and local insights
Our tours go far beyond dates and monuments.
We share the Málaga that locals feel and talk about: tales from the old port, the story behind the unfinished Cathedral, Picasso’s connection to his hometown, and the hidden secrets of streets you would otherwise walk past unnoticed.
Our guides grew up here, and they know the small stories that only circulate among Malagueños, the ones you won’t find on Google or in an audio guide.
Free booking and hassle-free cancellation
Reserve your spot for free.
If your plans change or you decide to explore Málaga on your own, you can cancel without any fees or explanations.
Small groups and a personal experience
We keep our groups small so you can enjoy a comfortable, engaging tour.
This allows us to answer your questions, share recommendations and adapt to the group’s pace. No large, impersonal crowds where you can’t hear the guide, we walk together, we chat, and that’s how we believe a city is truly discovered.
