Guidekin's take
A fully private guide for the Caminito del Rey walkways themselves: 2h 30m on the boardwalks with entrance included at €253 per person, transport arranged separately.
For people who want the gorge narrated at their own pace rather than a coach-day package.
In our comparison: #6 of 8 in Caminito del Rey, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
