Malaga

We go to Malaga City frequently, mainly to get that City feeling that we just love sometimes, coming from London.

Everytime we go, we realise that Malaga is alot busier than we originally thought. Malaga is really growing and at the moment there is alot of building work around the City as soon there will be a Metro for the City, plus all the work being done at Malaga Airport.

In the future, Malaga will be such a fantastic City to travel around and with the trains being built, travel along the Costa Del Sol will be fantastic.

This half term, October 2007 we decided that we were going to stay where we live and be tourist for a change.

So we drove to Malaga City and parked in the main car park underneath the city. We then went to the tourist office and picked up leaflets about the Open Top Red Bus. They showed us where the bus stop was and off we went.

Lets take a short break....here is a video of Malaga City which is brought to us from Sol Channel

 

The Red Sightseeing Tour Bus was 15euros for each adult. Our 4 year old was allowed on free. The whole tour is arouind 1.5 hours, and you can jump on and off whenever you want (at the stops). The ticket is also valid for 24 hours so if you stay over night, you can get really good value out of the ticket. We got to see a part of Malaga that we had never seen before. Around the Port Area and the bus went up to Gibralfaro Castle, along by the Picasso Museum and Cathedral. You could also see Malaga Beaches, which really looked fantastic. It even stopped at the Larios Centre and Vialia Centre. So rather than drive back and forth we left our car all day in the car park and just jumped on and off the bus. It was really great fun and our little girl loved it. Warning...the steps on the bus are really steep and we did have a little accident so take care with little ones.

We stopped off at the Vialia Centre for a little pre Christmas Shopping and some lunch. The bus comes every 30 mins so you know when to be back at the stop.

We didnt get to the Picasso Museum as our little girl was too tired, but it looks great. Its also free the last Sunday of every month.

After a very long day we went back to the car and drove home. It took quite a while as the traffic was really bad getting out of Malaga because of all the works.

A great day out.
