What to expect

Your guide meets you at Marqués de Larios street (or your hotel/port) and leads a walking exploration of Málaga's old quarter. You'll stand before the Cathedral's intricate facades, understanding its architectural layering. Next, climb to the Alcazaba, a medieval hilltop fortress commanding views across the city to the coast. The nearby Roman Theatre grounds you in Málaga's 1st-century roots. Throughout, your guide connects these spaces to Picasso's childhood observations—the light, the streets, the people—that fed his early work. The pace is yours; you set the rhythm and depth of each stop.
