🧭 Your guide

Meet Michel -
the soul behind
every tour

Guide · Storyteller · Local gem hunter

Originally from The Hague, Michel has called Marbella home for over 20 years. In that time, he's built friendships with the chefs, tavern owners and market vendors who keep the real Marbella alive - the people you'd never find in a guidebook. He doesn't just show you the city; he introduces you to it.

Every stop on Michel's tours is carefully chosen. Every story is true. And if you're lucky, he'll take you down an alleyway most tourists never find.

He shared his vast knowledge about the city and its history and also the local taverns and food with us. He was attentive to our group and catered the experience to us perfectly. Highly recommend touring with him.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went here the 27th of January and I am very satisfied. The tapas tour with our guide, Mitch , was awesome! Every restaurant we stopped at had delicious tapas paired with cava/wine. Along the walking route, Mitch told us about some of the history of Marbella and the surrounding region, we had a little rain ,but it still was good , and also shared some fun urban legends. Would highly recommend this tour! We come back with some friends in the summer and we have booked already. Great tour
