What to expect

Journey back in time and discover how two magnificent civilisations shaped the vibrant city of Malaga on this 1.5-hour guided walking tour.

Your experience begins at the majestic Roman Theatre and its dedicated visitor centre. Here, your expert local guide will reveal the imperial grandeur of Malaga during the Roman Empire and explain how these ancient ruins lay hidden underground for centuries.

Next, you will head up to the spectacular Alcazaba of Malaga. Celebrated as the best-preserved Moorish palace-fortress in Spain, this architectural marvel was built during the Al-Andalus period. As you stroll through its lush courtyards, aromatic gardens, and historic defensive walls, you will learn about the strategic military secrets of the fortress and enjoy some of the most beautiful panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the modern city skyline.

Admission tickets are fully included in the price, allowing you to bypass the ticket office queues and spend more time exploring.
