One of The Best Guides I’ve ever had
"My husband and I are interested in moving to Malaga. I reached out to Miriam requesting a custom tour focusing on relocation. Miriam took the time to show us areas of the city that meet our needs. She shared her insight on school, local customs and what life is like living in Malaga. Miriam went above and beyond. It was the perfect tour!"

Antonio was an excellent tour guide!
"Our tour guide, Isabel was not able to meet us and we met with Antonio instead. He was waiting for us when we arrived at the meeting place. He is a seasoned and experienced guide who really knows the town well. He took time to explain the history of the town and all the major landmarks. We especially loved the Alcazaba and adjacent amphitheater. He explained the chronology of occupants from the first group to settle there through all of the 20th century renovations. He also explained the etiology of the towns name : the Phoenicians may have derived the name from their goddess called Malack (sp?) or it could be named after their word for ocean port, Malaka. In either case it is a beautiful city. We also got to go to the Atarazanes market where he knew many vendors and we got to sample olives and pickles garlic. We also sampled salted olive oil almonds from a friendly street vendor. I would highly recommend this tour and would not hesitate to take a different tour With Locals again. "

Loveky food tour in Malaga
"We had a lovely food tour with Miriam in Malaga. Miriam’s so knowledgable about the city, it’s history, places to go, restaurants and tavernas to eat at and all the parks and museums which has made the rest of our break here so easy to visit the best places. The food tour itself was wonderful eating at the lovely places, some off the beaten track and others in the top 10 restaurants to visit. The food was very tasty as was the wine and beer. Miriam was lovely and chatty and her English is brilliant. We highly recommend a tour with Miriam. "

Delightful evening!
"Isabel was a fabulous guide, and knows about everyone and everything in the City. We visited some amazing secret streets and shops and bars, and tasted wine to die for and gorgeous food. We got a real sense of pride in the heritage and history of Málaga, and a recognition of the more troubled periods over the centuries. We had plenty of time to talk about life at home and life in Spain, which gave us a real understanding of the culture of the city and the country. We had a lovely evening with Isabel which set us up for the rest of our visit! Thank you"

Great experience.
"We really enjoyed our time with Isabel. She took us around Malaga, amending the tour to our previous experiences of the city. Starting at the market was great as we were able to taste some local produce as well as learn about the history of the building and area. From here we visited several areas we had not previously seen. Isabel was very knowledgeable and obviously loved the city. Would recommend this tour and Isabel as a guide."

Excellent
"We did this tour first thing when arriving to Málaga, and can highly recommend people to do the same. Perfect mix of history, culture and obviously good food and drinks. Based on all the information and history we received we had an easy time planning what we'd like to experience during our stay in this beautiful city. Isabel was very knowledgable and very keen on answering our questions regarding the local culture and history. Since it was a private tour, it was very flexible and easy to adjust the experience according to our preference as we went along. "

Isabel es una buenísima guía!
"Estamos encantados. Isabel respondió a todas nuestras preguntas y el tiempo pasó rapidísimo. Es muy educada, divertida e informativa. También nos recomendó un restaurante estupendo en el barrio del Soho, justo al lado del teatro de Antonio Banderas. Gracias, el menú de mediodía fue super bueno y muy bien de precio para la gran calidad. También nos hizo varias recomendaciones devtiendas y museos. Aprendimos muchísimo y la recomendamos con mucho gusto. "
