I hope you are ready for exploration, because Andalusia has so many incdredible places to see, smell and feel. The historic city centre of Málaga with its cosy alleys is just one of them!
You should definitely not miss out on this beautiful city with its mundane seafront. It is located within just an one hour drive from the Costa Tropical (Granada). Málaga is also where the major regional airport “Aeropuerto de Málaga” is located.
Spending several hours or even a whole day in this pictoresque and vibrant city is always worth it. Especially, when you know where to go. For that matter we would like to provide you with great suggestions for having a joyful walking-tour through Málaga. You will see many of its best attractions.
A luxurious villa with private pool and sea view is already waiting for you, when you come home after an exciting day. We wish you, your spouse, your friends and family a great time exploring Málaga!
It is very difficult to find parking space directly in the city centre, therefore we would highly recommend you to go to a car park and pay. Car parks are affordable and will help you to avoid searching 30 minutes or more for a parking lot in the busy city traffic.
We would suggest “Parking Camas”, which is located directly in the city centre.
