About this experience
The Teleférico Benalmádena offers a high altitude journey on an exclusive cable car ride that starts in Benalmádena and takes you to the top of Monte Calamorro. Once at the top, the Teleférico provides a range of clearly signposted trails through the countryside leading to strategic lookout points where you can enjoy the most spectacular views of the Costa del Sol, the Sierra Nevada and, on clear days, Gibraltar and the coast of Africa. Enjoy a bird's eye view of the Malaga coastline and discover the most spectacular panoramic views in the only cable car on the Costa del Sol. The Teleférico de Benalmádena was inaugurated in 2000 and has since become one of the main tourist attractions on the Costa del Sol.

A great experience. Also...
A great experience. Also paid extra tp see Birds of Prey show which should not be missed. The views are something else. Didnt have to queue and easy to travel to. Discounted to buy online rather than on the day at the cable car

DO NOT BOOK ONLINE OR ON WINDY DAYS!
DO NOT BOOK ONLINE! Terrible experience. Called to ask if cable cars were running due to a windy day. They said yes they were. Only to arrive and find out they were shut due to high winds. We then asked for a refund and got told we could do it online. There is no possible refund online without sending in an information sheet and asking for one. A long process for no money back. Very rude staff, lying to us about being able to refund when simply not possible. An absolute scam of a place. A waste of money and time and again very rude staff. Absolute dog s**t. DO NOT BOOK ONLINE!

Benalmadina Cable Car and Bird of Prey Sanctuary - FABULOUS!!!
We had fantastic day! We booked the cable car which was excellent. Very high, but very calm and not wobbly at all. I am nervous of things like this usually, but I felt calm and actually enjoyed it. Once at the top, we visited tje bird if prey sanctuary and saw the show which was 7euros per adult and brilliant! Well worth the money. We saw approx 6 birds fly including an American bald Eagle. We were able to interact with a vulture and an owl (have them fly/hop to your arm) for no extra cost. There was also a small gift shop for souvenirs which we used. The cafe had air con and the food and drink was very reasonable without inflated prices. A really good day out!!!

Wheely enjoyed this 👌
As a wheelchair user, I really appreciated how helpful and considerate the staff here were. I went in the evening time so there were no ques, I bought my ticket at the desk on arrival. Since I can stand, they took my wheelchair up in the cable car ahead of me so it would be waiting for me when I arrived, and helped me safely get on and off the moving cable cars. It takes about 15mins to reach the top so loads of time to enjoy the beautiful views on the way.

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Malaga.
How much does Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket cost?
+
Prices start at $27 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Malaga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Malaga is not rushed.
Is Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 50 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Malaga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket?
+
Around 18 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Malaga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Malaga and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Benalmadena Cable Car Admission Ticket start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Malaga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Malaga?
+
On Outty we rank every Malaga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Malaga City Tour 2 Hours Monumental Segway Tour, Taste of Malaga Tour : Tapas, History and Local Customs, Go local for a day!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Malaga?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Malaga?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
