2.Caminito del Rey Gorge Route Guided Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 753 reviews · from $40

Guides such as Pablo, Victor, and Roberto have been especially well liked.

“El Caminito del Rey is definitely worth a visit. We also had the best guide who grew up in the area and knew her history. Only downside is the signs coming up there in car is difficult, as poor signing makes parking confuesing”

4.Benahavís: Guided Canyoning Adventure (Benahavís River Walk)

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 540 reviews · 3 hours · from $47Top rated

Join licensed guides such as Martin, Vera, Juan, or Brenda for a three-hour canyoning trip through Benahavís. You will swim in 18°C pools, pass caves, scramble over slick rocks, and choose from several jumps plus a 6-meter rappel. Gear, insurance, and GoPro photos are included.

“We had an absolutely fantastic time canyoning with our guide Brenda and all the other adventurers. The activity was fun from start to finish. The scenery was stunning and we were surrounded by dragonflies, butterflies and tiny frogs. The rock jumps were quite scary, but we did manage them all and they are optional. There were a few long swims, which was tricky in heavy shoes but totally manageable for good swimmers. A brilliant activity, I highly recommend doing this, it was such a memorable thing to do.”
