Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive in Malaga, welcome to Costa del Sol!

Smile you are in Spain!

I will pick you up at Malaga’s airport (AGP airport code), also called Pablo Picasso airport, or at Malaga’s train station. The train station is called ‘Maria Zambrano’. I will drive you to the house which is 25 min away from the airport or 30 min from the train station.

Depending on the time you arrive to Malaga, how tired you group is, or if if you got jet lag or not, you may want to rest and stay home or go somewhere. That will be up to you the group.

So if you are not too tired or had the chance to rest some, I would take the group to La Cala de Mijas, one of the original fishing villages of the area.
It’s just about 2 min drive from the house, or a 25 minutes walk along the soft golden beach across the house.

The village has everything you can expect from a town, it’s full of cafes, family run-shops, outdoor markets, different cuisine restaurants, and of course beach restaurants or ‘chiringuitos’. The old town is small, with narrow lovely streets, and it’s very easy to walk the entire place in a short amount of time.
The group will walk it’s wooden promenade that hugs the coastline, and offers plenty of places to sit, relax and snack while enjoying the sea views.
And of course! I will recommend you where to eat!

The friendly atmosphere of this village is very unique and charming, making this little town a delightful place.

Day 2: Malaga

Have breakfast at home, and walk the beach with your coffee if you want to! The beach is 1-2 min away walking.

I will drive the group to Malaga to visit its immaculate all pedestrian’s marble streets, and surroundings, visit the Cathedral, the Roman Theater, the stunning views of the city from the Alcazaba, the best preserved Moorish fortress in Spain.

All of this is within walking distance.

I will also take you to the magnificent Gibralfaro Castle built in 929 A.D and see the great views of Malaga city. You will lunch around the old quarter, where you can taste some of Andalusia’s best tapas, or lunch the famous ‘chiringuitos’ (beachside seafood restaurants).

The group will head back to the villa to get some rest, beach time, etc...

Get ready to be picked up for a nice dinner!

Day 3: Banus port & Mijas

I will drive the group (25-30 Min), to PUERTO BANUS, Spain’s most luxury marina, famous for its yachts, outdoor shopping complex, and restaurants, with an impressive mountain and sea views.

We will make a stop to enjoy beautiful Puente Romano boardwalk of Marbella on the way to Puerto Banus.

The group will go back home, for a few hours, after having lunch at Banus port, and I will take you to Mijas, a enchanting whitewashed village in the mountain, just 20 minutes away from the house.

Mijas is famous for its ‘ donkey taxis’ and spectacular views of the Mediterranean and rural countryside.

You will have dinner in favorite restaurant in Mijas.

Day 4: Ronda

Not only a Vineyard/ Wine tasting day!

I will take you guys to the breathtaking town RONDA (1h and 45 min drive).

This town with beautiful architecture, it is one of the loveliest places in Spain, where you must see its astonishing sunset!

We will visit the town by foot, el Puente Nuevo ( the new bridge), for the magnificent panoramic views, the main attraction of Ronda.

Also a visit of Mondragon’s palace, built in the 13th century, the bullfight ring, which it is Spain’s oldest bullfighting, and where the tradition of bullfighting was born.

For wine lovers, we will make a stop in a couple of its exceptional vineyards for some wine tasting and other typical Ronda’s products. (flexible & deluxe).

Day 5: Private Catamaran & Marbella

Today you will taste a delicious paella, and the group will get on a private catamaran for dolphin spotting, fishing, or swim with your friends and enjoy the extraordinary coastline views. ( flexible & deluxe )

We’ll go back home, and get ready to go to the prestigious, and glamorous town of Marbella, famous for its beaches, world class golf, vibrant nightlife, and high end shopping.

The group will walk around the spectacular old quarter, where most of their beautiful Castilian Renaissance architecture buildings were built in the 14th and 15th century, with lots of chic boutiques, coffee shops and great restaurants.

Experience the excellent ambiance of Plaza de Los Naranjos, a charming plaza full of orange trees, and one of the most emblematic sights in Marbella.

We won’t miss the Paseo Maritimo ( promenade) for a short walk on it’s marble walkways, full of palms and flowers, and fabulous views of the sea.

The group will have dinner in Marbella, and will watch and authentic flamenco show, which takes place in a typical old Andalusian house you can not miss!

After an unforgettable evening, I will take you home or experience the glamorous and world famous Marbella nightlife.

Day 6: Cordoba

I will pick you up early because we are on our way to Cordoba! The only city in the whole world that has as many as four Unesco Heritage Sites!! Cordoba is about 2h away.

You will visit the Great Mosque Cathedral, built in the 8th century, and the second biggest Mosque in the world.
Lunch in one of Cordoba’s best restaurants with authentic cuisine, and we will go visit the Alcazar de los Reyes Cristianos (Castle of the Christian Monarchs). This castle served as a fortress and palace.
Residence of the Roman Governor, and later on, the primary residence of Isabelle I, and Ferdinand II (Catholic Kings), it was also the place were Christopher Columbus explained to them his discovery route plans.
The gardens at this place are splendid!

The group will walk the Historic Centre of Cordoba (also Unesco World Heritage Site), the oldest part of the city with lots of courtyards and narrow streets, under an impressive combination of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles. We will also see the Tower of Calahorra, and cross the Roman Bridge.

The Jewish quarter is also part of the historic centre of Córdoba where we can also visit the Jewish Synagogue, probably the best preserved monument in Córdoba.

Another great option that I really recommend (not for kids) in Córdoba, would be to experience an Andalusian Arab/Turkish bath, and massage in a Hammam for an excellent state of relaxation! (included with the premier package, but if not interested let me know.) You will also have the choice to include this bath/massage at any other package you choose with an extra cost)
You will never want to leave that place!

Time to go back to the house!

Day 7: Nerja and Frigiliana

Good morning group!

Hope you have your cameras, phone charged, and bathing suit ready, just in case you want to go swimming.

We are on our way to the fantastic coastal fishing village of Nerja, a charming seaside town, and one of my premier destinations of the Costa del Sol. The group will enjoy the scenic 1h coastal drive.

A visit to one my favorite white washed mountain villages is a must, that is Frigiliana, about 20 min from Nerja or so.

We will visit the Balcón de Europa ( Europe’s Balcony) that offers amazing views of the Mediterranean coast.

You will stroll Nerja’s picturesque narrow streets, full of cafes, boutiques, and great ice cream shops!

If the group wants, we can go down the stairs to its crystal clear water beach, about a minute or two walking.

Time for lunch! Plenty of fresh seafood restaurants as well as many other types of cuisine! I have a couple of my favorite restaurants in mind, depending what the group feels like eating.

On our way to see the Nerja caves, we will make a stop to see the Acueducto del Águila (Eagle’s Aqueduct).

The group will take a tour of Las Cuevas de Nerja, (Nerja’s caves). It’s also home of the world’s largest stalagmite, it has held its record in the Guinness Book since 1989. A visit to these caves is truly a unique experience!

Now let’s go to the lovely and well maintained, white village of Frigiliana. Built on a mountainside, the whole atmosphere and feel of this place is just remarkable.

To visit the village, we will walk through its impeccable narrow streets.

I will take the group to my favorite restaurant in the village, with gorgeous sea and mountain views, and of course great food and drinks.
