With Daytrip, you can book sightseeing stops at places like the whitewashed village of Montefrio, home to what is believed to be the 'Best View' in the world, according to National Geographic.

Or why not visit El Torcal de Antequera, where you can admire the prehistoric seafloor and its unusual and dramatic rock formations? Let's also not forget about the Chapel of Our Lady of the Remedies, Cueva del Tesoro, and the beautiful village of Frigiliana.

However, no matter where you stop, nothing will prepare you for the wonder of Malaga. You can begin your explorations when your English-speaking driver drops you off at your accommodation.

About Malaga

Malaga is a port city in the South of Spain, in the country's revered Andalucia region, or Costa del Sol. With a population of more than 600,000 people, it is the sixth-largest city in Spain and attracts millions of eager travelers every year. With its Andalusian culture, the city exudes a relaxed atmosphere, but it's also a modern business center that continues to grow.

<show-more> This city, which lies along the bay of the Mediterranean Sea in the center of Costa del Sol, has an interesting history. It was founded in the 12th century BCE by the Phonecians but subsequently conquered by the Visigoths and Romans and taken by the Moors in 711 – hence the influence of Roman and Moorish architecture.

With its many cultural influences through the centuries, it's unsurprising that Malaga has some peculiar and unique attractions and landmarks. From interesting monuments that showcase the different periods in Malaga's history, like the Gibralfaro Castle and the Roman theater, to captivating and enthralling museums and theaters, there is something for everyone to visit in this city.

However, if you can only do a handful of activities when visiting, we urge you to plan a trip to the Picasso Museum – Malaga's most famed painter. This museum houses one of the most important collections of Picasso's work thanks to collaborative relatives. But besides its cultural and historical attractions, Malaga also has a lively nightlife and is known for its spectacular food scene. From fish and chips takeaways to gorgeously bedecked Michelin-star restaurants, there is a culinary space where everyone can tantalize their taste buds and enjoy something new. </show-more>

From Granada to Malaga: Travel tips

Brush up on your Spanish

Malaga is no different from any other destination in that it's an excellent idea to brush up on a few local phrases—and in this city's case, it's Spanish. Although you'll likely speak English most of the time, including with your Daytrip driver, if you book with our private car transfer service, knowing a few key Spanish phrases can help make your trip easier. This is especially true if you visit smaller, lesser-known towns along the way.

Remember, the siesta is alive and thriving

Don't listen to those who haven't traveled to Spain recently. The siesta is alive and thriving, not a tradition of a bygone era. So, when you drive from Granada to Malaga, note that many restaurants, grocery stores, shops, and attractions close during the afternoon.

This is especially true in smaller towns, so travel around the local siesta times to avoid missing out on anything you have planned. If you don't know when the siesta is happening, ask your local professional Daytrip driver.

Be prepared to stay up late

If you want to explore various locations like clubs, festivals, concerts, restaurants, and bars, you need to be prepared to stay up late. Much like Spanish meal traditions, Malaga nightlife doesn't start until later at night. It's common to venture into a nightclub at 2 a.m. and see very few people. So keep this in mind if you want to participate in nighttime events.

Things to do when you get to Malaga

After you've driven from Granada to Malaga, what should you plan to do first? To help you decide what is worth your time and what isn't, we've shared a few of the best things to do when you get to Malaga below:

<show-more>

El Caminito del Rey

The narrow hiking path El Caminito del Rey, known for its incredible glass footbridges and man-made boardwalks, spans 2 miles (3 km). Unlike other hiking tours you might do when in Spain, we recommend El Caminito del Rey for thrill seekers and adventure junkies. Those who want to walk across a trail that hugs sheer cliff sides and is suspended over river gorges. This trail will make you feel like you are walking on air.

Although it's only 2 miles (3 km) long, you must set aside at least three hours to leisurely stroll the distance while enjoying the views of the Guadalhorce River elbow and the Gaitanes Canyon above.

Malaga Cathedral

If you want to visit one of the best historic landmarks in Malaga, you must set aside time to tour the Malaga Cathedral, completed in 1782. Renowned architect Diego de Siloe designed this cathedral, and it is unique in that it combines Baroque, Gothic, and Renaissance styles, so it will most assuredly be a treat for the eyes.

Plaza de la Merced

You might be thinking: I've seen one plaza, so I've seen them all, but this isn't the case in Malaga. This city is home to the Plaza de la Merced, which has been a functional part of Malaga since the Roman Empire called the city home! Besides being one of the biggest plazas in Malaga, it is also near Pablo Picasso's childhood home, so you can take a quick walk from one to the other – two birds, one stone.

Malaga Alcazaba

You can't visit Malaga without taking a tour of the Alcazaba, otherwise known as the city's Moorish palace. Like other palaces in Europe, the Alcazaba is grand and ornately styled with sweeping hallways, panoramic views of the city, and ornamental gardens that you might never want to leave.

Yet, it stands out from other palaces because it was also a fortress used by the Moors. When you visit, you can learn more about the ingenious design tricks they employed to keep their stronghold protected. </show-more>

When is the best time to visit Malaga?

When planning your transfer from Krabi to Phuket, you might wonder about the best time to visit this tropical island. Most travelers come during the dry season from November to February for the sunniest beach days. During this period, temperatures average around 77°F-88°F (25°C-31°C), making it ideal for outdoor activities and beach lounging.

However, it's worth considering October and March-April, known as the shoulder months. During these times, the monsoon season is either starting up or winding down. Prices for flights and accommodation may be lower due to fewer crowds. While there might be sporadic showers, temperatures remain warm, averaging between 75°F-90°F (24°C-32°C), providing plenty of sunshine for beach enjoyment.

If you can stomach colder weather, Malaga is beautiful in winter, but try spring or autumn instead. Temperatures are pleasant, prices are more affordable, and crowds are thinner.
