From the Publisher
Discovering Spain’s Most Hospitable City
Málaga: Spain’s fastest growing visitor destination
If Málaga makes you think of Torremolinos, all-inclusive hotels and Full English breakfasts, then be prepared for a surprise. A city founded by the Phoenicians, it is elegant and cultured with multiple layers of history, dozens of museums, ancient monuments, beautiful churches and some of the best food and drink in Spain.
Go beyond Tripadvisor and Google
The internet has transformed the way we travel. We use it to find the best prices, the hottest attractions and the best-rated bars and restaurants. We use our smartphones for maps and translation. Our guides concentrate instead on what the standard tourist websites don’t: the rich history and culture of the city and the places that few foreign visitors ever discover.
For a brief trip or a deep dive
If you’re visiting Málaga for the first time, or for just a few days, then Essential Málaga (the concise guide) will tell you all you need to know.
If you’re going for longer, if you’re visiting for a second time, or if you want to plan some daytrips, then Málaga (the comprehensive guide) will act as your encyclopaedia to the city.

Málaga: A Comprehensive Guide to Spain’s Most Hospitable City
One of the most detailed Málaga guidebooks available in English. At over 600 pages, this book is a deep dive into the history, culture, gastronomy and daily life of one of Andalucía’s most enchanting cities.
If you are planning a longer trip to Málaga, if you are a return visitor, or if you simply want to understand more about the city, then this is the guide for you.
Featuring a comprehensive index, this is a guidebook to be consulted as an encyclopaedia of the city, rather than a pocket guide. It contains detailed information about Semana Santa in Málaga, as well as an in-depth guide to the Feria (including bullfights) and all the main festivals and celebrations throughout the year.
A substantial portion of the book explores day trip destinations within easy reach (using public transport) of the city of Málaga. See the Alhambra of Granada, and the macaques of Gibraltar, or explore Antequera — one of Spain’s loveliest but least known cities.
Available as a paperback and on Kindle.
