Beautiful Views
The experience is well worth it. We enjoyed every moment in Ronda and Setenil. If of course you are able to drive on your own, do that because we could have easily spent more time in each location.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that when visiting independently, you can choose your own pace and spend longer in each location. We appreciate your comments and will keep them in mind when reviewing the tour timings and overall experience.

Brilliant trip well worth the early morning alarm call
Take comfortable walking shoes as there is a lot of walking on this tour. Our guide an driver were absolutely brilliant. Vanesa is extremely knowledgeable and interacts very well with everyone. She has a great sense of humour and is a great asset to the company. Miguel drove very safely and calmly, all in all a great trip. Plenty of free time in Ronda after the guided tour, again great information from Vanesa.
Response from the operator: Thank you for such a fantastic review! We’re delighted you had a great trip and appreciated Vanesa’s knowledge, humour and interaction with the group. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her and Miguel. We’re also glad you enjoyed the guided tour and free time in Ronda!

Two places worth visiting...
Two places worth visiting if you're in the area. The timings are about right for the two places to get a good overview but probably not long enough in Ronda if you want to do any museums etc, so it depends what you're after. We were staying in Torremolinos so this tour was great as it had a local pick up spot
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊 We’re glad you enjoyed visiting Ronda and Setenil and found the timings suitable for getting a good overview of both places. We’re also happy the local pick-up in Torremolinos was convenient for you. We hope to welcome you again on another Andalusian adventure! 💙

Recommend this tour
Vanesa was a great guide for as many guests that were traveling. Very organized and knowledgeable about the history and culture of the region. I would highly recommend
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that Vanesa made your experience enjoyable with her organisation and knowledge of the region’s history and culture. We’ll be happy to share your kind words with her. Thank you for recommending us! 🌟

Disapio
Disappointed with your tour guide. We are english but yur tour guide did not explain properly on where we were meeting to have the wine and sweet tasting as a result we didn't get that. We paid the same price as everyone else. If I new we weren't getting full treatment l would have booked with a different company. The only good person who was polite was the driver.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. The wine and sweet tasting is included only for guests who book the guided visit option. If that was not the option on your reservation, it would not form part of your tour. If you had booked the guided option, please contact us with your booking details so we can review it, as there may be some confusion with the operator.

Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Marbella.
How much does Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Marbella usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours 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 Marbella is not rushed.
Is Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 129 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Marbella, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience?
+
Around 45 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 Marbella 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 Marbella and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience 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 Marbella 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 Marbella?
+
On Outty we rank every Marbella experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Parasailing Fuengirola - The Highest Flights on the Costa, Ronda Day Tour and Winery Visits from Marbella, Guided Canyoning Adventure Near Marbella (Benahavís River Walk). 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 Marbella?
+
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 Marbella?
+
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.
What is included in Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience?
+
Included: Professional guide; Wine and local sweet tasting; Tour Guide and free time in Ronda; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Free Time in Setenil de las Bodegas. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience?
+
Málaga Centro - Bus Stop entre Unicaja Banco y Caixa Bank Av. Andalucia 10 Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Fom Costa del Sol: Ronda and Setenil Tour with Tasting Experience offered in?
