City break in Málaga

Andalusia with Picasso, the Alcazaba and Ronda

Málaga – the capital of Andalusia on the beautiful Costa del Sol. We’ll take you on a city break to Málaga. The modern coastal city is framed by two massive hilltop fortifications: the Alcazaba and the ruins of Castillo de Gibralfaro. Numerous museums and squares are reminders of the city’s artistic heritage. A city break in Málaga wouldn’t be complete without visiting Pablo Picasso’s birthplace.

A trip to Málaga: towering above the city

The old town, with its large squares and the Cathedral of Santa Iglesia, will transport you to another era. Discover the region’s charm on a guided tour of the capital of Andalusia. The route to the Alcazaba fortress takes you high above the city. It towers over the city, offering views of the harbour, the city centre and, in particular, the La Malagueta bullring.

Andalusian cuisine: Sherry tasting and tapas stop

Naturally, you’ll want to explore Andalusian cuisine on your city break to Málaga. Stop at a traditional Andalusian tavern and enjoy the wide variety of Spanish tapas and paellas. After your tapas, be sure to try the traditional dessert, borrachuelos. This dessert is filled with sugar and sweet potatoes. Anise is added, and the sweet treat is also fried in it. Round off your visit to the tavern with a Sherry tasting. You’ll be introduced to three full-bodied sherries and invited to sample them. Enjoy this culinary highlight on your trip to the city of Málaga.

A trip through Málaga: following in the footsteps of Pablo Picasso

Art plays just as important a role as Spanish cuisine and culture on a city break to Málaga. Follow in the artistic footsteps of Pablo Picasso in the city where he was born. As well as his birthplace, visit the church where he was baptised, San Agustín, which is also the oldest church in the city. Passing the Moorish market hall, where you can sample roasted almonds and olives, you’ll continue on to the bullring and the Picasso Museum. The old Andalusian palace houses 155 of his artworks from his grandchildren’s private collections. A tour for true art lovers and a must on any trip to Málaga.

Day trip to Ronda

A city break in Málaga wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the small Andalusian town of Ronda. Located in the Serriana de Ronda, the town is renowned for its 150m-deep gorge. The gorge divides the town into two parts, connected only by the 18th century bridge, the Puente Nuevo. Discover Ronda from a different perspective on a gorge walk, or try your hand at bullfighting in the famous bullring. The capital of Andalusia has plenty more to offer. Day trips to Gibraltar or Cádiz are also possible. We’ll create a personalised travel itinerary for your city break in Málaga. Just give us a call.
