Explore the Benalmadena area with absolute flexibility – from the great vantage point of an open-top bus. This tour ticket is valid for 48 hours, and allows you to explore everything from Benalmadena's renowned marina to the hilltop village of Benalmadena Pueblo. What's more, it includes entry to the famed Mariposario Butterfly Park or or Sealife, depending on the option you choose.

Your ticket will take you all around the other local attractions such as the market town of Arroyo de la Miel, La Paloma Park and Benalmadena's award-winning Puerto Marina. The Benalmadena Tour can be joined at any point along the route, including the train station, and is ideal to combine with other attraction tickets such as Selwo Marina.

The bus also travels twice a day up to Benalmadena Pueblo, a whitewashed hilltop village. Here you can visit its Colmares Castle, take in the views over the coast and enjoy coffee in the pretty square.

It was very poor value for money. No guided tour commentary was offered! The tour was also short and did cover much of the area!

as we booked with TUI we got a 48hr pass but only used for the first day as that was all we needed personally. Easy to find stops. However if you want to go to the old town or butterfly park you need to change busses and i was not sure where/how to do this. We did not do this as the times for the old town and butterfly park were limited. Excellent drivers, very smooth driving. we did find some of the headphones did not fully work but overall really enjoyed the trip.

The bus tour is massively unorganised, the busses are never on time. Yesterday we ended up stranded as the bus never showed for our return trip. The butterfly exhibit was exceptional, and the cable car was great (maybe expensive for what it was) but the biggest negative was definitely the bus tour.

The trip was very pleasant. Driver very helpful. I didn’t use it for the full tour but it got me where I wanted to go. App is very handy as well. Butterfly park amazing.

Very grumpy bus driver. When went to get off at our stop he drove off before we got downstairs. The next stop was a fair walk back to our hotel No earpieces provided for commentary.
