I will be honest as I can be with my review of the Nerja/Frigillana tour . From the beginning me and my wife had a great time,we had someone contact us through watsapp with a reminder the way before which reminded us the tour and where to go to and at what time,which was wonderful . We went to the location and got picked up in a good manner, the only thing I would say that you could improve on this aspect is that you could provide detail of the bus and guide before arrival as there are lots of things going on and a tourist in a simillioar position to myself could get confused very easily. The guide Ales was very polite,friendly and respectful. He provided information at various intervals as to the history of Malaga and its surrounding areas. Both the towns were lovely and the travel twas great . The only downside I would say is that through my booking platform (get your guide) it said 3.5 hours in Nerja but we only received 2.5 hours which was a bit disappointing as we had many things we wanted to do but couldn't do so but to time constraints. A great day out with a few minor tweaks would make all the difference. 3.5 hours in nerja instead of the 2.5 hours ideally. Thank you

Eché en falta algo de explicación por las calles de Frigiliana, porque te dan tiempo para que tu te des un paseo por sus calles y descubras lo que puedas... Por otro lado el tiempo para Nerja es muy corto y más si escojes la visita a las cuevas, ni te da tiempo a comer y mucho menos a ir a la playa (como dicen).
