Traveler reviews
Great experience, lovely...
Great experience, lovely and interesting tour. Be aware that the timings may not be 3pm more like 3:15-3:30pm to start
No more Naturanda.
No more Naturanda. I would not recommend it to ANYONE. Bad start from the booking and then worse and worse. Only consolation that the caminito is worth visiting. I say nothing else otherwise a page would not be enough to list the disorganization and problems we have encountered.
Caminito amazing - don't pay for guided tour
The Caminito Del Rey offered amazing views and jaw-dropping sights. However, I do not believe a guide was needed. It was very difficult to comprehend the guide and it was much less cost- effective. Our guide, named Samuel, was very nice and had some very interesting things to say, but we did not properly hear some of them. The bridge was the best part of all the views, though it was slightly frightening. 🫣 For a 40 euros per person you would think the return shuttle bus would be included. The company who organised the tour was rather chaotic and had not organised the meeting point clearly and additionally about 30 minutes late to start. In summary, I think the Caminito Del Rey is an amazing experience, but if I had to do it again, I wouldn't have gone for a guide again. Caminto 5 star Guide 2 star
Super experience
Fantastic experience Super excellent guide (Martina) Top 🔝 recommended
Great day out
The hike is spectacular and not strenuous at all. Very safe environment and with the exception of the suspension bridge at the end there are no scary bits. The bridge was affected by hight winds when we were there so it had a bit of sway but nothing more. Went with two children aged 12 and 14 and they loved it too. It is a two hour leisurely walk from end to end.
