Guidekin's take

A Caminito del Rey day trip that collects from Malaga and Costa del Sol pickup points, with the admission ticket and an air-conditioned coach for €68 per person.

A solid pick if you are staying outside Malaga city and do not want to drive to the gorge yourself.

In our comparison: #21 of 23 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
