Phenomenal !
This was an amazing tour ! Tour guide contacted us to pick us up closer to our hotel which was super appreciated. The tour guide and bus driver were great! First stop was Frigiliana where you are left to explore on your own. There was a great little box train you pay to take you throughout and it was so good. Stunning village! Met up with the bus who then took us to Nerja. As this was a little more challenging to find the Balcon de Europa, we were not only given a map but the tour guide escorted us directly. The cobblestone pedestrian only streets covered from the beating sun to open up to this stunning square with the balcon de Europa, a church and a ton of bars and restaurants plus the walkway to go down to the beach. Breathtaking! It was a wonderful tour. Provided us with history and information but left us to explore on our own and enjoy our time our way.

The address of the...
The address of the meeting point was written as Av. de Andalucía, 10, but the actual meeting point was not exectry there, which was very confusing. It could have been easier to find it if it said to wait at the bus stop. On top of that, the bus was 40 minutes late. The guide was very organized and nice.

Delays
We arrived at the meeting point at 9:30. We waited for 30- 35 minutes for the bus.We did not know if the tour was canceled or what happend. Finally , the bus arrived. None apology or explanation was given. In each town, the free time was 1:30minutes aprox not 2 hours as the itinerary mentioned. Other than that the tour agent was very nice.

Better off going by yourself instead!!
FYI: Return travel by public transport (Malaga -Nerja- Frigiliana) is only ~14euros/person; Malaga - Nerja return ticket is less than 11euros/person, and return ticket between Nerja - Frigiliana is ~ 3 euros/person. So when booking this trip, the extra paid should be the premium of not having to worry about the transportation + getting some info about the place right? No, you are so wrong! They don’t do that sorry! First of all, bus was late for 40 minutes in the morning. On the bus, the speaker was bad so everyone can’t hear tour guide well in the bus, and tour guide told us the wrong time that the bus is leaving when we specifically confirmed with him after, knowing that the sound system was bad. The bus ended up going back to Malaga without us, didn’t even think of trying to contact people that didn’t get on the bus. Really terrible service, VIATOR is also a really bad travel agent that does not help us to resolve this dispute.

Nerja and Frigliana fantastic, Julia Travel could have been better experience.
My husband and I , who are Scottish, went on the Nerja and Frigliana tour on a day that had thunder and lightening and torrential downpours. We expected it to be cancelled. It didn't start off well with the tour guide. He demanded to see the tickets, although our name was on the list. When my husband took time and the embarrassment of others having to wait, found his phone in his top pocket and scrolled through to find the tickets. The tour guide then said "it's OK dont bother get on the bus". There were four languages spoken and when English was spoken everyone started to talk, laugh etc so we couldn't hear properly what the tour guide was saying. It was very rude. Although weather was poor we enjoyed Nerja and Frigliana. I would certainly not go back with Julia Travel due to the off hand nature of the tour guide towards us and with the other three spoken languages and rudeness of other passengers. We are going back to Spain next year and will be avoiding Julia Travel for our trips.
Response from the operator: Dear 191elsbethb, Thank you for sharing this review. I am glad to learn that you enjoyed the Nerja and Frigiliana visit despite not being satisfied with our guide's performance. Please bear in mind that all customers are required to show their voucher for the tour. I would like to inform you that our tours from Costa are multilingual, as all agencies are informed. Sincerely,

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Malaga.
How much does Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga cost?
+
Prices start at $63 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 Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga 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 Malaga is not rushed.
Is Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 99 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Malaga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga?
+
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 Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga 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 Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga?
+
Around 35 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Frigiliana and Nerja Tour from Malaga 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.
