What to expect
The charming old town of Marbella and the upscale opulence of Puerto Banus provide a perfect contrast on this trip. Take half a day to discover them both, with plenty of free time to explore. Sonia, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The Golden Mile has been synonymous with luxury since 1954, when Prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe opened the Marbella Club Hotel. His exclusive club tempted royalty and other glamorous figures to pay Marbella a visit. Once they began building their own properties in the area, the Golden Mile was born.'
First, you'll explore Marbella's old town, with time for browsing its boutiques and wandering its cobbled lanes. Maybe sip a coffee in the popular Orange Tree Square – the picturesque hub of the old town – fringed by traditional restaurants and cafés. Take a stroll through shady Alameda Park to admire the tiled benches and fountain, see the Dali sculptures along the Avenida del Mar, or take the air along the palm-lined seafront.
We'll then drive along the famous Golden Mile – Dolph Lundgren, Joan Collins, Hugh Grant and Antonio Banderas are just some of the residents here – to the millionaire's playground of Puerto Banus. Check out the luxury yachts moored in the marina or maybe indulge in a spot of designer shopping. Sonia says, ‘This marina was once an old fishing village. The upgrade was designed by Jose Banus with the international jet set in mind.' When you've had your fill of bling, relax by the water's edge for a spot of people, or celebrity, watching.

Day Trip to Gibraltar including Minibus Tour of the Rock
An exotic blend of the familiar and the unusual, Gibraltar is a must-visit. This tour ticks off all its top attractions – the Barbary apes of the Rock, St Michael's Caves and the Main Street. Rosa, one of our local guides, says: ‘Gibraltar is one of the most unexpected culture shocks I've ever encountered. It feels like my native Andalusia, but everything looks British. Wandering around, listening to the locals chat in their cute dialect is always a joy.'The fun kicks off on a high with a guided tour of the Rock of Gibraltar. Towering 426 metres above the Med, its steep slopes look daunting – but you'll be discovering it from the comfort of a minibus. The first stop is packed-with-monuments Europa Point, a popular spot for taking snaps. At the Upper Rock nature reserve, you'll meet the free-roaming Barbary apes – Europe's only wild monkeys. On a clear day, you can see all the way across to Africa. Next up is St Michael's Cave. Once home to Neanderthals and used as a war hospital during World War II, they're now an atmospheric concert hall.Back at ground level, Gibraltar's town centre has a distinctly British feel to it, whether it's the more obvious red phone and post boxes or the more succinct ones such as arched Georgian door frames. Tuck into a pie or maybe some fish and chips for lunch, before some retail therapy. Main Street, where many of the British high street chains have outlets, is famed for its duty-free shops.

Full Day Tour to Ronda with Reservatauro Ranch Visit
Heading into the hills from the Costa del Sol, you'll come across one of the most storied medieval towns in the region – the one and only Ronda. Spend the whole day exploring its cobbled alleys and discover its history and local traditions, including a visit to a bull ranch. Marilo, one of our expert local guides, says ‘Ronda's famous bridge is still known as Puente Nuevo, even though construction began over 250 years ago. It joins the two parts of Ronda – the new town, “Mercadillo”, and the old town, “La Ciudad”.'After arrival, you'll set off on a guided walk around the town, checking out its churches, mansions and the Puente Nuevo. This magnificent stone bridge straddles the 100-metre-deep Tajo gorge that bisects the town, serving up dizzying views. Ernest Hemingway was a frequent visitor – so much so, there's a sculpture of him, opposite one of Orson Welles, another Ronda aficionado – in Blas Infante park. Then, you'll enjoy more views over the ravine from the Casa Don Bosco, a modernist mansion perched above the gorge, as well as a glass of wine.You'll round off at the Reservatauro Ranch – set in a biosphere reserve filled with centuries-old oak trees, it's a perfect habitat for breeding Spanish bulls and Andalusian horses. Learn more about the history of Spanish bulls and Andalusian horses, in a sustainable and eco-friendly way. You'll stroll through wooded pasturelands studded with oaks and get to meet these lovingly cared-for animals, which are free to roam the vast ranch.
