Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Free Tour?
A Free Tour is a guided tour where you will see the most important buildings of the city, but also other non-touristy places while learning about the history, the culture of the place and the lifestyle of the locals.
Additionally, the guide will be always available for any questions about places to visit, to eat and any other doubts.
Actually, the Free Tour is not a visit where the guide says the information by heart; it’s an experience for the travelers where the guide will connect with them making the visit very entertaining. Whoever tries, repeats…trust us!
It’s for this reason that Free Tours became a worldwide phenomenon.
Is the Free Tour Malaga gratis?
Even if the literal translation of Free Tour is “Tour gratis” the real meaning come from the concept “Free price”.
With a free tour, the price is open; you can choose the price at the end of the tour, depending on your satisfaction. Thanks to this kind of tour, anyone, regardless of their budget, can have access to the history and the culture of the city, something that until not long ago was much more expensive and not everyone could afford it during the vacation.
What is the difference between the Free Tour and a normal visit?
The main difference between the free tour and a normal tour, is that the traveler decides the price at the end of the tour based on his/her level of satisfaction. In this way he/she has a power of decision that did not have before.
With a traditional tour, you pay it in advance and if you don’t like it well… you have bad luck!
In this way, it’s better for the traveler since he/she can decide the price depending on the experience and the satisfaction, he/she does not feel “cheated” if at the end of the visit feels that he/she has paid more than he/she should.
Why the quality of the Free Tour of Malaga Adventures is so high?
It’s very easy to answer this question.
Since we don’t know how much we will get at the end of the tour, that’s why we always give our best during the tour!
We try to be fun, by giving pleasant and entertaining explanations.We ask questions involving the tourists and trying to catch their attention always in a way that they forget about theirs phones and the time flies by having fun together.
Our guides explain hidden parts of the city, telling histories that not everyone knows because we like to study and prepare our tours.We like to work hard on our visits because part of our benefits depends on them.
In this way, we create an unique experience and we assure you that sometimes we have more fun of the travelers just seeing how they enjoy knowing Málaga.
The real reason why Málaga Adventures is so good, are its super tour guides!
Do we have a break during the Free Tour?
Yes but unlike other Free Tours we do not stop in a “associated” restaurant in which we can take commissions.
We stop for ten minutes at one of our favourite places, the Atarazanas market, a beautiful market where you can taste or buy some typical products at a very good price, talk with your guide or go to the bathroom.
Is it necessary to book the Free Tour?
Booking the Free Tour is not compulsory but we recommend to do it, especially during the high season.
In any case, if you haven’t book, don’t worry. Come 15 minutes before the tour and we will make the booking for you.
What happens if I am late for the Free Tour?
Don’t worry, who hasn’t been late sometimes?
First thing to do if is possible, try to send us a message by Whatsapp to let the guide know that you’re late.
If not possible don’t worry, usually the guide start the tour in Plaza del Obispo and it takes 15 minutes to explain the first point. The next point is Calle Larios at the beginning of the street where is the statue of Lord Larios.

Yes. The historic center of Málaga is pedestrian and all the places that we visits do not have problems of mobility.
What should I bring with me during the tour?
Although in Málaga the weather is good all the year, during summer you can find some very hot days.

What happens if it rains?
Usually if it rains, there are no problems also because in Málaga there are just two options:
Option A: It rains a little and we can do the visit without any inconvenience;
Option B: It is the Universal Flood and it seems that the sky is going to fall.
If we check that the day of the tour is expected a very strong storm, we will contact you and postpone the visit when the weather is good.
Can I go away before the end of the tour?
