# Full Day Guided Malaga Ronda Day Tour

**Guidekin's take:** The most complete budget Ronda day we list: about ten hours from Malaga covering guided walks in both Ronda and Setenil de las Bodegas for €33 per person. The trade-off for the price is a full coach and a long day, but nothing about the itinerary is thin.

**Best overall:** The only budget run with guided walks in both towns, Puente Nuevo to the rock houses, plus a photographer along: €33 per person and 4.64 from 130 reviews. Trade-off: 10 hours, a long coach day. (last checked September 1, 2026)

In our comparison: #19 of 23 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Ronda is one of the few cities that cannot be compared and does not look like any other city in Spain. One of the most visited in the province in Malaga.
discover its impressive 98-meter-high New Bridge!

Setenil de las Bodegas, a unique small town for having most of its houses built into the rock, a beautiful walk that you will not forget!
