About this experience

This 2.5-hour walking tour in Malaga begins at Plaza de la Merced, an iconic square. Participants will explore the historical area, discovering both famous and lesser-known sites while learning about local history, traditions, and customs. The tour emphasizes experiencing the city like a local, engaging with the culture rather than just observing as a tourist. It concludes with a visit to the Central Market, where attendees can sample local products and toast with sweet wine. This experience is suitable for those looking to immerse themselves in the local lifestyle, but may not appeal to travelers seeking a traditional, fact-heavy tour.
