What an amazing tour of Álora finished with wine and olives, meat, cheese and Wine! One of the best tours we have been on. Big shout to Ramon and his amazing mother. I really recommend this as a day out!

La excursion tiene de todo lo que iba buscando, vistas,cultura y gastronomia. Nuestro guia Ramón tiene un amplio conocimiento de su pueblo y sus costumbres. Y su forma de transmitirlo hizo que nosotros nos sintimos como parte del pueblo. Stella, la conductora...fantastico como llevaba el Van por esas calles superestrechas. Y al final tuvimos la degustacion de vino...4 vinos fantasticos, uno mejor que el otro y con prductos tipicos del pueblo para acompañar...lo pasamos en grande incluso con los demas pasajeros. Fue un dia excepcional. Gracias Ramón y Stella. Recomdendable al 100%

The tour was much more than I was expecting! Romón was a wonderful guide who showed us all around his town. It was wonderful to learn about the customs and traditions. The wine was also quite good and included an amazing tapas board. Would recommend for anyone wanting to get out of the city and see how people actually live. Thank you!!

I just want to say that I liked everything so much, Roman is a real professional in his field, a very kind and lovely guy.
Small beautiful town with a lot of history, Ramon was born and raised in that town so he knew a lot which is really nice because he is only young guy.
For the price we paid, we got more than we expected and we had a wonderful day. Definitely try it locally produced chorizo is very tasty. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Estella is a wonderful woman who drove us through the entire town and dangerous narrow streets. I highly recommend it is worth visiting and spending the day.

Ramon was a fabulous guide. Being involved In Alora for many generations through his family, gave him in depth background and history. He told all sorts of stories that made the area come alive. He had great personality and great communication skills both before, during and after the tour. I loved the fresh oranges and lemons, that was a nice touch. Highly recommend this tour and if Ramon is your guide, you will have a great day

A magnificent tour. I loved the professionalism of Raul, our guide. He made us have a wonderful day in Álora. Culture, fun, and wine tasting... highly recommendable.

We loved Ramon, he shared a lot about himself and his family, very personal. Great history lesson and conveyed how he feels about Alora where he was born and lives today. Good English skills, he translated for the wine maker and we were able to feel his passion. Great day!

We really enjoyed this tour! It was very interesting to visit Álora and we loved tasting the fresh oranges and all sorts of different wines and tapas. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Ramón!

I wish I could leave 10 stars! Ramon and his mother Estella were the BEST, most amazing tour guides ever. This tour was the highlight of our trip, but it definitely wouldn’t be what it was without Ramon and Estella. We got so well looked after, the tour was so entertaining and we got lots of tapas and wine at the end, Ramon organised extra cars last minute for us because we are a big group. 11/10, Could not recommend this enough, definitely worth the money! You won’t regret it if you book.

Our tour was fantastic. Ramón is a fantastic guide with lots of interesting knowledge of the area and a kind and caring disposition. My husband and I had a great time and highly recommend the tour for learning more about local culture, history, and cuisine.

Before you book
The questions we get every week
Can I cancel if plans change?
Yes. Free cancellation and a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time, on every tour. No form, no phone queue — one message on WhatsApp is enough.
Do you pick us up at our hotel or apartment?
From a pick-up point close by, not the door itself. We have points across Málaga city, Torremolinos, Benalmádena, Fuengirola, Nerja, Torrox and Torre del Mar, so there's usually one within walking distance of where you're staying. You choose yours when you book and we confirm the time afterwards — round trip, included in the price. Ronda tours meet in Ronda; private tours can collect you at your door.
How big are the groups, really?
Maximum 8 people. Most days it's between 2 and 6. If you'd rather have the van to yourselves, ask us about a private departure.
What language are the tours in?
English and Spanish, both native level. Tell us which you prefer when you book.
Is the price really the final price?
Yes. The figure you see includes pick-up, tastings, entrance tickets where applicable and all taxes. Nothing is added at checkout.
Can we bring children?
On day trips and the Caminito del Rey, yes. Wine tastings are 18+ for the tasting itself, but children are welcome on the trip — just let us know ages when booking.
