Overview
Embark on an all-encompassing Malaga adventure aboard a comfortable electric tuk tuk, designed to whisk you around the city’s most fascinating sites of historical and cultural interest. This fun, efficient, and family-friendly tour promises to uncover Malaga’s most magical sightseeing spots, from the iconic City Hall to the enchanting Marina Square, passing through La Farola, the dazzling Malagueta Beach, and the atmospheric Gibralfaro Castle.
Starting with the celebrated University of Malaga, your exciting tuk tuk tour will continue onwards to the impressive Bank of Spain before bringing you to Malaga’s City Hall, an architectural gem which blends Baroque Revival elegance with Modernist allure, captivating all those who gaze upon its grand facade.
Your tour will continue to the Centre Pompidou Malaga, a vibrant extension of the renowned Paris contemporary art museum which showcases captivating artworks within striking and colorful glass cube, igniting a sense of wonder in those who encounter it.
Following on, you’ll discover La Farola, a majestic lighthouse which gleams under the Spanish sun and steadfastly guards the entrance to the Port of Malaga. Built from stones sourced from Gibralfaro Hill in 1817, this whitewashed beacon has withstood the tests of earthquakes, wars, and maritime perils.
As you head to the Port of Malaga and Malagueta Beach, bask in the splendor of this sun-drenched paradise, gliding along the palm-fringed promenade aboard your tuk tuk.
Continuing onward to Baños del Carmen, discover a serene retreat encompassing a small beach, a lush woodland, two tennis courts (hosting Malaga's first tennis tournament), and a 1930s pavilion, now a beloved seaside dining spot.
Your electric tuk tuk effortlessly ascends to Gibralfaro Castle atop Gibralfaro Hill, an ancient Moorish castle in ruins dating back to the 1300s. Immerse yourself in the intriguing history of this fortress while relishing breathtaking views over Malaga's grandeur.
Returning to the city's heart, uncover the awe-inspiring bullring, Plaza de Toros, or La Malagueta. Constructed in the grand neo-Mudéjar style and inaugurated in 1876, this impressive arena also houses a museum commemorating the legendary matador Antonio Oróñez. Recognized as a Historic-Artistic Site and a Site of Cultural Interest, the Plaza de Toros stands as a testament to Malaga's bullfighting heritage.
The final highlight of this breathtaking journey is the magical Marina Square, nestled between the Alameda Principal and the Paseo del Parque. A gateway to the Port of Malaga, this picturesque square is the first glimpse of Malaga to greet visitors arriving on cruise ships. Don't miss the elegant fountain at its center as well as the El Cenachero ('The Fish Vendor') statue, a tribute to the symbol of the city.
