How to Choose a Shore Excursion in Malaga

All cruise lines arrange shore excursions while in Malaga, some of them are very expensive, to help you make the most of your time in every port of call. But is it worth to pay those expensive shore trips that the cruise line organize? Is it better to plan a day trip on your own? Should you just do your own thing? Here are some questions to ask yourself so you can enjoy your stay in Malaga the way you want.

1. Just want to be tourist for a day?

The cruise line will always try to sell you an excursion, but if you just want to walk around the city of Malaga, shop or visit the local beach, pick up a map and do it alone. Malaga has plenty of shops, restaurants and museums within walking distance of the dock. And don’t forget that you can often find hop-on-hop-off buses that make it simple and fun to get an overview of everything, with more in-depth glimpses wherever you choose.

2. Do you want to avoid the big bus tours?

CostaExcursions.com offer private tours in luxury cars and vans for people who don’t want to climb aboard a bus. We offer a number of excursions or you can contact us if you would like to create your own excursion.

3. Do you want to immerse yourself in local culture?

In CostaExcursions.com we provide a hands-on local experience that you probably won’t find on your own: a visit, say, to a vineyard, or a visit to an olive oil mil.

4. Do you want to relax in luxury?

Visits to beaches, scenic sails, romantic catamaran cruises — these excursions are all designed to remind you why you took a cruise in the first place: to sit back and relax. Book one if you’re craving that kind of day.
