What to expect
Your guide meets you in the Old Town and leads a steady pace through cobbled alleyways, stopping to point out centuries-old buildings and explain how neighbourhoods were shaped by trade and conquest. You'll learn how locals actually move through Marbella, not just where postcards are taken. At Orange Square, you'll have space to breathe and absorb the ambiance before moving on to the olive oil shop. There, if your group has at least four people, you'll sample different oils and hear about production methods. Otherwise, you can browse, order a coffee, or simply recharge.
Good to know
