Buzzing Around In Malaga

OVERVIEW

Ride through the streets of Malaga in a tuk-tuk and stop along the way for tastings at destinations that are abuzz with activity. The tuk-tuk – an open-air rickshaw of sorts for just four passengers – will offer a unique perspective of the landmarks, which will become all the more meaningful as the driver describes them. While visiting a popular beach bar, you can choose a favorite drink that pairs well with a skewer of grilled sardines, which are known as espetos. These locally caught fish are typically prepared with a light seasoning of sea salt and olive oil and cooked over an open fire. Your immersion into Andalusian cuisine will continue with a plate of tapas at a tavern. Although the ingredients vary with the season, they often contain fresh seafood such as prawns, octopus and anchovies. For the ultimate sweeping view of Malaga, you will enjoy another drink at a rooftop bar.
