Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.
All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.
For Daytrip’s private service, you can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure. For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
Simply choose your origin and destination via our homepage and enter your departure date and time. Browse and add sightseeing stops along the way by following the booking instructions provided on screen. It's a simple, easy, and fun way to book your next adventure! And if you don’t see your desired route on our website, you can request a custom trip. You can even book without knowing your exact pick-up or drop-off address - we let you add these later!
Each passenger is allowed one large bag (29" x 21" x 11" / 74 x 53 x 28 cm) and one small bag (22" x 14" x 9" / 56 x 36 x 23 cm). Luxury sedans can only accommodate 2 large bags. We always send the vehicle that is the best fit for you and your luggage, so make sure to select the actual amount of luggage you are traveling with when booking. If you have oversized luggage, or are unsure if your luggage will fit, contact us.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.

Despite its small size, Ronda is considered one of Spain's most beautiful cities, competing with such cities as Granada, Cordoba, and Seville. Its proximity to Malaga makes it a popular choice for a day trip, yet this unique city offers more than can be seen in just one day, so consider planning an overnight stay to fully explore all it has to offer. And it is not only your destination that deserves to be explored—make sure you discover other sightseeing stops on your journey from Malaga to Ronda.
While there are several transportation options to choose from, Daytrip’s private car service is undeniably the most convenient one for those who don’t want a simple transfer. With Daytrip, you have the freedom to tailor your journey and add sightseeing stops along the way, thus enhancing your experience. Explore the impressive Colomares Castle, stroll around Molino de Inca Botanical Garden, or discover the white-washed village of Mijas—everything is possible with Daytrip.
About Ronda
Ronda is truly a paradisiac destination, and not in the traditional sense of turquoise waters and white sands. It is renowned for its stunning cliffs that tower approximately 750 meters above sea level. The picturesque view is complemented by vineyards and a bubbling stream that flows through the narrow gorge. The Guadalevín River divides the city into two parts, which are then joined by the antique Puente Nuevo bridge that almost seems to grow out of the cliffs.
Thanks to the intricate positioning of the city, Ronda was not easy to access centuries ago, but it has helped preserve many of its historical landmarks. As you explore the city, you will mainly encounter a blend of Moorish and traditional Andalusian architecture characterized by white-washed houses. The Moorish heritage in Ronda is not reflected only in the architecture—one of the city’s main tourist attractions is the Arab Baths (Baños Arabe), which are known as the best-preserved ones in Spain.
The city of Ronda is renowned as the place where modern-day bullfighting originated, known as corrida. It is also the birthplace of one of the most famous bullfighters, Pedro Romero. Ronda could truly be characterized by the red color but not only because of the bullfighting culture, as the city is also known for producing red wine.
Ronda is truly a unique destination, and its beauty even inspired the American novelist Ernest Hemingway, who captured the city’s scenery in his literary work "For Whom the Bell Tolls".
From Malaga to Ronda: travel tips
Here are a few travel tips that will ensure your trip from Malaga to Ronda is seamless:
Explore in the morning
As Ronda is a popular Andalusian destination and there are many day trippers, the city can get quite crowded. To avoid the hordes of tourists, plan your activities early in the morning. If you are staying in Ronda, you can also explore the main attractions in the evening, thus also avoiding the heat if you travel in summer.
Be prepared for the heights
As Ronda is situated at a significant height, some parts of the city might be more challenging to visit for those who are afraid of heights. If that is your case, make sure you don’t book accommodation by the edge of the cliff and plan more activities away from the steep drops.
Bring some layers
If you plan to stay until the evening or overnight, be sure to bring some layers. Since Ronda is at a higher elevation, it won't be as warm in the evenings as it is in Malaga.
How to get from Malaga to Ronda
You are now probably wondering what is the best way of getting from Malaga to Ronda. As the distance between the cities is not that large, you cannot travel by plane. Ronda does not even have an airport, and Malaga Airport is the closest one. Keep on reading to discover the best Malaga to Ronda transfer methods!
From Malaga to Ronda by bus
Public transport is the most affordable way to travel from one city to another. The bus company Alza offers direct buses with the cheapest tickets starting from $12.50 (€11.50) and with a journey time of 2 to 2.5 hours. As this is a popular route, make sure you book your tickets in advance.
From Malaga to Ronda by train
Another way of getting from Malaga to Ronda is by taking a train. Renfe operates between these two cities, offering direct rides of 2 hours to 3 hours for around $16 (€15). These trains depart from Malaga’s main train station, Malaga María Zambrano.
From Malaga to Ronda by guide tour
As the route from Malaga to Ronda is so popular, there are also many guided tours that offer day trips. These tours include a drive from Malaga to Ronda and guided visits to the main attractions. The only downside of these trips is that you are not given as much freedom and you have to follow the rest, so maybe the next mode of transportation might be for you.
From Malaga to Ronda by private car service
If public transport or trips with a guided tour are not what you are looking for, then you can opt for Daytrip’s private car service. It's the most convenient way to travel between the two cities, with the added convenience of being picked up from your accommodation and dropped off at your desired location in Ronda. The drive takes just 1 hour and 40 minutes. Here are some of the Daytrip service’s benefits:
Your luggage will be loaded.
Your personal driver will be English-speaking, which means you can learn more about the city and its surroundings.
The cars are clean, comfortable, spacious, and well-air-conditioned.
You will be provided with bottled water, perfect for a trip during warmer months.
The service is family-friendly: if you travel with kids, you can request child seats.
And one of the best benefits is that you can go sightseeing during your journey from Malaga to Ronda. You can stop at the Molino de Inca Botanical Garden for a peaceful walk, then admire the Colomares Castle which is dedicated to Christopher Columbus, or explore the unique village of Setenil de las Bodegas.
Things to do when you get to Ronda
Wave goodbye to your Daytrip driver after finishing your route from Malaga to Ronda and get immersed in Ronda’s beauty. Make sure you add these recommendations to your itinerary:
Visit the first bullring from outside
You can start your tour of Ronda by visiting the Plaza de Toros, the oldest bullring in Spain, built in 1785. Although only one bullfight is held each year, the museum inside offers insights into Spain's bullfighting tradition. However, we recommend admiring it from the outside to avoid supporting an example of animal cruelty. Bullfighting is a significant part of Andalusian history, and viewing the bullring from the exterior allows you to appreciate its historical importance without supporting bullfighting.
Admire the city from above
Ronda is full of jaw-dropping views, but you can never get enough. Be sure to visit the most popular viewpoint, officially known as ‘La Sevillana,’ but unofficially called ‘El Balcón del coño’—a name that Spanish speakers will understand. You'll be amazed by the stunning scenery that unfolds before you!
Explore the Casa del Rey Moro
‘Casa del Rey Moro’ means ‘Moorish King’s House,’ although no Moorish king ever lived there. Nevertheless, this historic site is well worth a visit. It is divided into three parts: the Neomudejar-style palace, the gardens designed by French landscape architect Jean Claude Forestier, and a 14th-century water mine. If you plan to explore the water mine, be aware that it involves a fair amount of walking up and down, so bring some comfortable footwear.
Try the local delicacies
Ronda is renowned for its delicious local treats that should not be missed during your visit. As one of Spain's largest exporters of goat cheese, sampling Ronda’s cheeses is a must. The city is also famous for its unique 'pero de Ronda,' a fruit resembling a blend of an apple and a pear. Don't forget to try the pan rondeño, the most typical pastry of Ronda.
When is the best time to visit Ronda
The best time to visit Ronda is either in spring or fall, particularly in April and May or September and October. During these months, temperatures are more moderate, making it ideal for exploring the city comfortably without the large crowds of peak tourist season. Additionally, the blooming flowers of spring and the yellow-hued leaves of fall will add a picturesque charm to your visit to Ronda.
If you prefer to avoid extreme heat, it is advisable not to travel to Ronda in July and August. During these months, Andalusia experiences exceptionally high temperatures that can be unbearably hot for outdoor activities.

“Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.”
“We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.”
“Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.”
“Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.”
