Malaga & Costa del Sol

With long, sandy beaches, a rich history and over 300 days of sunshine, it is not hard to see the appeal of Malaga and the Costa del Sol.  Fresh fish, passionate locals and endless recreational activities all add to the charm of the area.

Malaga itself is a city offering it all, a walkable historic centre to explore, more museums then any other area in Andalucia and great beaches within touching distance of the city centre. Amongst the passions of Malagans are food, fino (a local sherry), bullfighting and flamenco and the pinnacle of this passion is the Feria de Agosto, a colourful summer street festival where Malagans let their hair down singing and dancing all night long under the blue skies for 10 days.

Malaga is a city renowned for it’s seafood and the spruced up waterfront area is lined with bars and restaurants where you can enjoy fresh fish alfresco whilst gazing out to sea. The Malagans also still indulge heavily in the culture of tapeo, hopping from one bar to another drinking and sampling small bites of local fish and delicious Iberian Hams and Manchego cheeses. The recent developments in Malaga have also brought about some gastro bars and stylish restaurants serving Michelin rated cuisine.

The sunny Costa del Sol stretches 150km across the Malaga province and there are endless stunning long and sandy beaches perfect for watersports, and beautiful harbours ideal for sailing trips. Popular locations include Marbella and the nearby Puerto Banus, where designer boutiques and stylish restaurants are set on the promenades amongst picture perfect postcard views. Over 50 golf courses grace the Costa del Sol area making it one of the leading golfing destinations in Europe.

Malaga airport is just 8km from the city centre and transfer times across the whole of the Costa del Sol are minimal. The region has some exquisite five star accommodation and many luxurious hotels and venues for all kinds of trips.

Malaga is a destination where visitors can enjoy all the facilities and technologies of larger cities, as well as being the perfect location for relaxing whilst enjoying some leisure activities and absorbing the year round sunshine.

4×4 Rally – White Towns
Activities in Malaga & Costa del sol

4x4 Rally - White Towns

Ronda was the birthplace of bull-fighting on foot as we know it today and the origin of the great bull-fighting dynasties. A typical Andalucian town, it lies at the centre of its Serranía mountain range. A deep gorge, the symbol of Ronda, separates the two halves of the city, the historic centre and the modern city which are joined by a beautiful eighteenth-century bridge.

The program is based on a half-day journey taking a carefully designed route in a fleet of 4×4 Jeeps. The participants will be divided into different teams with four members per vehicle.

Trips will be taken in Jeeps, from start to finish. Parts of these trips will involve travelling off-road and other parts will be on highways. Each team will have a Jeep at their disposal in which they will find all the information and material necessary to complete all the tests of the ‘Raid of Adventure’ experience.

The basis of the Raid 4×4 is to use the RoadBook as a guide. In their vehicle, each team will have one which they will have to follow closely. This RoadBook will be their guide throughout the entire activity. In each, they will have all the necessary information to complete the Raid, safety instructions, and important numbers.

After the tour, we will stop for a typical Andalusian lunch. Ronda is also famous for its “tapas”, snacks with drinks and we will take the advantage to have a quick visit to the town. The Mondragón palace, the bullring, the Santa Maria church and the Arab baths are well worth visiting.

This full day adventure-packed excursion will end back at your hotel for a well earned rest!
