  • Malaga gets very hot in summer, so we highly recommend that you bring cold water and suncream. A sunhat and fan are also a very good idea.

Choose our Free Tour Malaga’s Alcazaba and Roman Theater. Discover the magic of this beautiful Andalusian city as you explore its most fascinating historical treasures.

On our exciting tour, we will take you through Malaga’s impressive Roman and Moorish past, revealing the secrets hidden behind two incredible monuments.

The Alcazaba is a World Heritage-listed fortress that offers spectacular panoramic views of the city and the Mediterranean Sea. We will immerse ourselves in its unique architecture with Muslim influences, to tell you how it was built to protect its inhabitants more than a thousand years ago.

Afterwards, we will walk to the ancient Roman Theater, where you can relive the greatness of the Roman Empire. Imagine the plays performed on this majestic stage almost two millennia ago. Learn about its intriguing history as we stroll among the ancient stands and columns that still stand.

Our expert guides will accompany you throughout the journey, sharing interesting facts and exciting stories that will take you to another era.

Remember, the Free Tour Malaga’s Alcazaba does not have a fixed price, but at the end of the visit each person gives the guide the amount that he considers according to his satisfaction. You should also keep in mind that tickets to the Alcazaba are not included, and are paid at the monument’s own ticket offices (Adults €3.5 and Children from 6 to 15 years old €1.5).

One more thing! And this is a big one…

Our tours go ahead based on a minimum group size of three adults. If the number of reserved places doesn’t reach the minimum, then unfortunately we will have to cancel the tour. But don’t worry, we’ll always offer you an alternative option.

Our tour guide Carlos was amazing - his ability to talk about Malaga's history with such passion and humour was incredibly entertaining and made my experience even better. Having explored the town before the tour, Carlos's insights gave a better understanding of such a diverse history of this beautiful town. I highly recommend "Free Tour Málaga | Free Tours Andalucía" and big shout out to Carlos !
