Service Description
1. Nerja Cave The highlight of your visit is the Nerja Caves, a massive and ancient cave system that dates back millions of years. These caves are famous for their impressive stalactites and stalagmites, as well as the world's largest stalactite, which stands at a height of 32 meters. As you walk through the vast underground chambers, your guide will share the history of the caves, including their discovery in 1959 and their significance as a prehistoric site with ancient cave paintings. The chambers are illuminated to reveal the stunning rock formations, and you'll marvel at the sheer size of the galleries, some of which are used for concerts due to their remarkable acoustics. 2. The Sala del Cataclismo One of the most breathtaking parts of the Nerja Caves is the Sala del Cataclismo (Hall of Cataclysm), where you’ll find the record-breaking stalactite. This massive hall has a cathedral-like atmosphere, with soaring ceilings and intricate natural formations that have evolved over millennia. The scale of the space and the geological features offer an awe-inspiring experience. 3. The Prehistoric Cave Paintings The caves are also known for the ancient cave paintings that adorn some of the walls, depicting animals and human figures. While access to these areas is restricted to preserve the artwork, your guide will explain their significance, dating back over 42,000 years, making the Nerja Caves one of the most important archaeological sites in Spain. 4. Balcon de Europa After exploring the caves, you'll head to the nearby Balcon de Europa, a popular viewpoint in the town of Nerja. This spectacular promenade offers sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea and the rugged coastline, providing a perfect spot for photos. Your guide will explain the historical importance of this area, which was once a fortress used to defend against pirates. 5. Old Town of Nerja Conclude your 4-hour tour with a stroll through the charming Old Town of Nerja, where you can explore narrow cobblestone streets, whitewashed buildings, and vibrant squares.
