Great tour with an insanely nice and adorable guide!
We were lucky enough to be able to take part in the seasonally last "raisin tour" of 2025. The trip itself would have been really worthwhile from the pure program point of view. But what ultimately made him an absolute highlight was our guide, driver and general purpose helper Cipriano. He picked us up at our holiday destination, drove us to the three villages belonging to the tour and imparted a lot of interesting knowledge about raisin making, the places visited as well as about the country and people on the way. Since we still had two English-speaking fellow travellers "on board", Cipriano explained all the information in a very great way in both (almost perfect) German and English. After a lunch together we were then driven back to our accommodation. We expect to book one or two tours with Cipriano or Oletrips as part of future holidays on the Costa del Sol! Absolutely recommend!!!

Best ever trip with ole tours
Best ever Completely different to the white village. The drive to the raisin farm was brilliant. Real sense of adventure. Coffee in the town square was one of the best. Unbelievable price. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and informative. Will never see a raisin again without thinking of the tour. Lunch first class and cold almond soup a revelation Over all a great day

Fantastic trip and learning of Competa winery
I highly recommend the company and their trips. They are punctual, excellent organized, professional. What is more groups are small which is very comfortable. Cipriano has a knowledge on the history of the places we visited. Thank you for a fantastic day!

Well organised, informative trip.
I feel very privileged to have seen first hand the production of the raisins on this route. A dying art as it’s not financially viable now. Following our visit to the farm we travelled to Almachar, El Borge and Mondinejo. Here we saw how the raisin production has influenced these towns. The architecture, the traditions, fiestas etc. We were able to sample and buy some of the wines made with the raisins as well. Our trip ended with a superb and very welcome lunch. I went on this trip as a solo passenger, but was made to feel very welcome and included. I have already booked my next trip with Oletrips, and thoroughly recommend them as a professional trip organiser.

Wonderful Raisin Trip in beautiful Axarquia
On 29th September, I took the Raisin Tour with Ole Trips. We visited an Andalusian cortijo owned by the lovely Mano and Mari. We saw a traditional raisin production system - which was very interesting to see and learn about all the hard work which goes into the production of the raisins. Next we stopped in Almáchar, and visited the Museo de la Pasa (Museum of the Raisin). We then headed to El Borge, another beautiful town and had lunch in the Posada del Bandolero. Our final stop was Moclinejo. It really was a fantastic day out, it was very interesting to learn about the raisin route as well as visiting lots of beautiful places. I also met some lovely people on the trip. Thank you Ole Trips and Cipriano for a wonderful experience. Fantastic day out!

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Malaga.
How much does Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included cost?
+
Prices start at $85 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 Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included?
+
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 Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included?
+
Around 5 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Muscat Raisin Route - Small group with lunch included 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.
