“Access for disabled people is completely unsuitable. There is a glass panel at the bottom of the stands, meaning that people in wheelchairs can see almost nothing. We managed to get into the stands with great difficulty. Some people were paralyzed on one side. Signaling difficult access for people with reduced mobility is not optional.”

You’ll spend 90 minutes on a shared Mundo Marino catamaran, watching Malaga’s lights appear from the bay with cava or soda in hand. After a three-minute walk, a three-course dinner and two drinks await at Lounge Bar Plaza. Special DJ departures are available.

“The Sunset cruise was very nice, the crew was very friendly. However the dinner after was very bad. We had very little choice and the food wasn't very good. The restaurant also didn't know that we were coming and didn't really know about the tour or the free dinner. If Is was Viator i would not work with Plaza anymore.”
