At Embajadores de Málaga, we are passionate about offering unique experiences that connect travellers with the authentic essence of our land. That is why we have designed the “Signature Trips”, an innovative way to discover Málaga and Andalusia. These BESPOKE trips are guided by local experts who will take you into the destination like you’ve never known before.
What are author trips?
“Signature Journeys” are themed experiences where each tour is led by a specialist in a specific field. Whether a historian, an anthropologist, an art historian or an artisan, these personalities not only possess a deep knowledge of Málaga, but are also passionate travellers ready to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with you.
These experts personally design and guide each trip, offering a much richer and deeper perspective than that of a conventional guide. Its goal is to reveal what lies behind what we visit, allowing travellers to fully immerse themselves in the local culture.
