Small group with a guide
It leaves at 10:00 from Paseo de la Farola, by minibus. The listing gives about 45 minutes to Nerja and around an hour and a half in town. Then it goes to Frigiliana, with a walk through the old town, over an hour for lunch and a 30-minute guided visit in El Acebuchal. The return to Málaga is planned for 17:00.
Coach with free time
Here the guide is on board and in Frigiliana and Nerja you explore on your own. The listing gives 6 to 8 hours. The order of stops and the times can change. There may be other pickup stops along the Costa del Sol.
With the Nerja Caves or without
The coach trip has two versions: without the caves, or with the Nerja Caves, with an audioguide and 45 to 60 minutes inside. With the caves the activity lasts about 9 hours. The cave visit may fall mid-day or at the end. If you would rather plan the caves yourself, see the Nerja page.
Frigiliana on foot only
If you are already in the area or travelling on your own, there is a guided visit of Frigiliana of one and a half to two hours, with a wine tasting and snack. It starts in the courtyard of the Casa del Apero, in Frigiliana, and does not include transport from Málaga.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add the Nerja Caves?
Yes, on the coach trip. You pick it when you book and the entry with audioguide is included in that version. The small-group listing does not mention the caves.
Where does the trip start?
It depends. The small group meets at 10:00 on Paseo de la Farola, next to the Pompidou museum cube. On the coach trip the pickup point is Avenida de Andalucía 10, and the listing asks you to confirm the time with the provider 48 hours before.
Is there a guide all day?
On the small-group trip, per the listing, yes, with a 30-minute guided visit in El Acebuchal. On the coach trip an English-speaking guide is on board and in the villages you have free time without a guide.
