Description

Discover Marbella's historical and culinary center on a private city tour combined with a tapas tasting. The Old Town, or 'Casco Antiguo,' features picturesque streets, historic landmarks, and popular tapas bars beyond the city's luxury beaches and marinas.

The tour begins at Alameda Park, a small green space with fountains and tiled benches, offering a relaxed start before heading into the Old Town.

Walk along Avenida del Mar, a pedestrian promenade connecting the Old Town to the beach, lined with Salvador Dalí bronze sculptures and sea views.

Enter the Old Town and visit Plaza de los Naranjos, the central square surrounded by historic buildings such as the 16th-century town hall and Casa del Corregidor, decorated with orange trees and flowers.

Stroll through narrow, cobbled streets flanked by whitewashed houses, colorful flowers, boutiques, art galleries, and souvenir shops. Nearby is the Church of the Encarnación, a 16th-century baroque church with a richly decorated interior and free admission.

Explore additional squares including Plaza de Santo Cristo with its chapel, and Plaza Altamirano for quiet moments. Visit the Arab ramparts, Marbella’s oldest structures from its Moorish past, offering views over the Old Town.

Pause at Plaza Puente Ronda for a brief rest and to take in the local atmosphere. Following the Old Town walk, enjoy tapas and two drinks at one of Marbella’s oldest popular bars.
