# Caminito del Rey with Pickup from Nerja, Torrox and Torre del Mar

**Guidekin's take:** The Caminito del Rey for people staying on the eastern Costa del Sol: pickups in Nerja, Torrox and Torre del Mar, then the full walkway with admission, helmet and guide for €69 per person. Budget a long day, around eight hours with the coast-to-gorge driving.

In our comparison: #16 of 23 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Choose your closest pick-up location from Nerja, Torrox, or Torre del Mar.
Relax aboard a Premium Bus with air conditioning on our way to the Caminito del Rey day trip. 
Listen as your guide who speaks German, and English, tells you about the surroundings and history. 
At the beginning of the hike, you will receive a fresh bottle of water. Feel the thrill of walking above the Guadalhorce River from the north access point and make your way for approximately 2 .5 hours at your own pace and have time to take photos of the landscape along the route and admire the beauty of the Gaitanes Gorge.
At the end of the hike, you´ll get together with your guide again and the bus will pick you up, enjoy and relax on the way back to your starting point.
