Day Trips from Malaga

25 tours · €6–€500 per person · ★ 4.8

Day trips from Malaga are picked by hand: we read every listing, checked pickup points and inclusions and kept only operators rated 4.5★ or higher, 25 tours with 5,998 traveler reviews between them. The range runs from a €6 guided walk around Frigiliana's old town to a €500 private day in Tangier. Between them, the routes most people book: coach days to Ronda and Setenil from €30, the Caminito del Rey with transport and admission from €59, white village runs above Nerja, and Alhambra days in Granada with tickets handled.

Read the departure line before comparing prices: identical day tours from Malaga exist in three versions, starting in the city centre, collecting along the Costa del Sol, or serving Nerja and the eastern towns only. The cheapest Ronda trips are transport plus free time rather than a guided walk, the Alhambra checks passports and opens the Nasrid Palaces only to guided visits, and the €65 via ferrata is priced per group. The best reviewed day trips come first below.
