Free Walking Tour of Torremolinos
Tour Details
At the scheduled time, we'll meet next to the Los Oficios sculpture and set off on our free walking tour of Torremolinos. Let's start exploring the history and main monuments of this city in Malaga!
Firstly, we'll make our way towards Calle San Miguel, where we'll be told about the street's crucial role in the promotion of tourism. Here, in times past, celebrities like Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner have enjoyed the sun and freedom that Torremolinos offers. Afterwards, we'll continue towards the Church of San Miguel, and stop in front of the Pimentel Tower, both of which a great symbols of this city. Then we'll make our way towards the Bajondillo, a neighbourhood which has kept the same vibe that it had back in the 60s.
The next stop will be the temporary exhibition at the Centre of Touristic Interpretation, which recounts the most important milestones in the life of Torremolinos, from its early days until now. Then, pass by the Casa Suecia, the Hostal Micaela and the Tim Willoughby Volcano, all of which are bastions for local tourism.
We will follow the route through Pasaje del Peligro until we reach Pasaje Begoña, a place that preserves the memory of one of the greatest acts of repression against the LGTBIQ+ community, which marked a turning point in the history of Torremolinos. In Plaza de la Nogalera, we'll immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of the 1960s. We'll talk about the soul, funk, rock, and twist music that marked that era and head towards Pueblo Blanco, an iconic location for international cinema.
Finally, after a 2-hour tour, we will enter the Casa de Los Navajas, a beautiful neo-Mudejar style mansion, where we will say goodbye.
