Caminito del Rey White Village Tour: Reviews and Price

Reviews of the Caminito del Rey & white village tour with tapas from Málaga: 4.9 from 3,562, what guests praise and fault, and what the price covers (Oct 2026).

Updated October 2026

The Caminito del Rey and white village tour with tapas from Málaga is rated 4.9 from 3,562 reviews, and of the newest 350, read on 30 October 2026, 310 give five stars and 34 four. Guests praise the guides above all, then the size of the tapas lunch and the organisation; the few lower marks are about the pace and the length of the stop in Álora, not the walk. The price is from US$73 a person in current promotion (usually US$80) (checked October 2026), with the coach, Álora with a guide, the lunch, the official guide on the Caminito and the ticket included.

Read from GetYourGuide on 30 October 2026. Of the four one-star reviews, two have no text, one reads “Parfait” (perfect), and one reports a theft on the coach.

What guests praise

  • The guides. Many reviews name their guide, and the words are energetic, funny, knowledgeable, and good at keeping the group together and on time. On busy days the group is split into two with a guide each.
  • The lunch. “Plentiful”, in one English review; one guest counted four tapas, two drinks, fruit and coffee, and others mention wine, vegetarian plates and a vegan meal made without fuss.
  • The combination. Guests who came for the Caminito write that Álora, the castle view and the lunch made a fuller day than the walk alone; one guest was on a third tour with the operator.
  • The walk. The hanging bridge is the high point in several reviews, and one guest who was nervous of heights found it less frightening than feared.

What guests fault

  • The pace in Álora. A few found the stop in the village too long, with too many breaks, or would rather have seen Álora on their own.
  • Walking twice. One guest found the climb up and down the village heavy before the Caminito itself, and too much walking for one day.
  • Group pace. A fit walker wanted a faster group than the one they were in.
  • The group size. A large group, split in two, which one guest regretted.

If your day is about the walk alone, these are reasons to take Áloratur's guided day trip instead, about seven hours with no village and no lunch.
