Excellent guide clearly enjoying sharing his knowledge - This was a 90 minute walking tour up through the fortifications to the Alcazaba Moorish gardens. We hadn’t realised from the online information that this would be uphill on cobbles and rather uneven paths. However, our guide (Salvador, we think) led a gentle pace, stopping to impart information clearly in good English and always ensuring that all the group was there and warning of any hazards. He used a mobile microphone with receivers fir the group. He was expressive and seemed to be enjoying himself. The gardens and fortifications were attractive, with trees and plants. Much of the building were a recent restoration, though looked authentic. Good views over Malaga from the rop. Salvador also offered suggestions for independent sightseeing and places to eat. A very enjoyable tour in pleasant Spring weather - but would have been more arduous in hot weather.

Excellent tour of the Alcazaba with tour guide Lucia (Lucy) - Excellent tour of the Alcazaba with our tour guide Lucia (Lucy) who was both knowledgeable and also had a good sense of humour. The technology we were given also worked well, the earpiece, so that we could clearly hear our guide at all times. I would strongly recommend the tour.
