Exceptional tour guide! Our entire extended family (from ages 11-80) agreed that Jesus was by far the best guide we had on our entire 2 week trip through Spain. Not only was he extremely knowledgeable and personable, he was also very accommodating to the wide age range of our group. He was very communicative prior to the tour and was flexible during the tour, which was much appreciated. We learned so much about the history and culture of Ronda and we were shown the most breathtaking vantage points of this beautiful city. We give Jesus our highest recommendation!

Jesus was a great guide. He was knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. Everyone in our group said it was one of the best tours they had been on.
We started our tour at 9, before the other tourists arrived. It was delightful to have the amazing views and sights to ourselves! We enjoyed an easy banter with Jesus. Having been born and raised in Ronda, he has complete knowledge and interesting stories to tell. He has a happy and kind disposition. My husband and I left Ronda feeling that we had had THE BEST tour.
Jesus was an absolute joy! He brought a passion to his work and his bull fighting knowledge was impressive. I can't recommend him highly enough! He made Ronda one of our favorite parts of our trip to Spain.
Jesus was absolutely amazing and I cannot recommend him enough. If you are visiting Ronda, you need to book a tour with him to get the most out of your time. I usually do not book tours in cities, but I am so glad that I did this time and that I found Jesus.
This tour with Jesus was a wonderful fun experience from start to finish. He is entertaining and knowledgeable as he shares his love for Ronda.
Wonderful tour - Jesús was attentive, accommodating, and truly passionate about his work. We learned so much! He was very attentive to how we were doing at each point of the tour and adapted things to be just perfect for us. He was very communicative before the tour as well, making sure we had everything we needed and had no questions, even about things he wasn't involved with. A truly 5-star experience.
Juses is very friendly and knowledgeable, told us a lot of stories about Ronda, he was also very attentive to our 9 y old who couldn’t understand all the contents. Will highly recommend!很好的体验,Jesus的英文很好,也给我们推荐了很多可以自己去探索的地方。建议一开始先和Jesus逛一下小城,然后留出两个半天继续探索。
Our tour with Jesus was great! He’s a local so he is very knowledgeable about all things Ronda… He was prompt, professional and patient. We were a large group that included adults, teenagers and kids and he made efforts to engage the kids and to bring us to sights that would interest the younger folks. Everyone enjoyed the time we spent with him. And at the end of the tour, he suggested a local restaurant which was some of the best food we’ve had on our trip! 100% recommend this tour if you are in the area.
Jesus is amazing! He brought Ronda closer to us quickly, made sure we know where to go, what to see, history, culture, fun element to it - great great tour. Thank you Jesus!! You are fantastic!!
Jesus is a fabulous guide! He knows every inch of Ronda, and many of the people. Jesus provided detailed history for the entire tour in addition to offering some suggestions for local activities, dining, etc. We highly recommend this tour and Jesus as a guide.
Excellent local guide. Our best guide ever. We spent an amazing morning with Jesus touring Ronda. The fact that he is a local resident meant access and insight into areas otherwise unaccessible. Very knowledgeable making our visit so interesting. Great recommendations and great communication prior to the start of our tour. So pleased to have made this booking. Would highly recommend. Thank you Jesus.
We happened to be traveling during the rainy season in Malaga. We heard Ronda was a must see so we booked a tour through Viator & can’t say enough about our guide Jesus. He reached out a couple days before our scheduled tour & stayed in touch with us answering all our pre-tour questions. Jesus greeted us with an infectious smile & took us on an amazing tour of Ronda despite the rain. He was so fun & made our tour the best it could be. We highly recommend d Jesus if you get a chance to experience Ronda.
I can’t remember when we’ve had a better tour guide. He easily handled everyone in our group of 16 family members including five who are fluent in Spanish, who have lived in Madrid for five months, and a non-Spanish-speaking three-year-old and everyone in between. Lots of information presented in a highly accessible manner. Absolutely outstanding. Highly recommend.
What an excellent tour with Antonio Jesus! So knowledgeable, personable, friendly, accomodating and gracious. One of the best tour guides we have ever used. Highly recommend- don't miss this!
A very enjoyable and illuminating three hours in Ronda by an experienced local guide. I would go as far as to say that this was the best tour we have ever booked (and there have been dozens). At the end, there were excellent recommendations for restaurants and concerts.
Jèsus introduced us to this amazing city on our first afternoon in Ronda and we fell in love with this beautiful place. Jèsus not only was knowledgeable about the history, and had interesting stories to share, he gave us great suggestions about other things to do and places to eat during our visit. We travel a lot and Jèsus has been one of our favorite guides. I highly recommend!
Jesús was a wonderful ambassador for Ronda. He was very knowledgeable and kind. I would absolutely recommend a tour with him. If you go, book the 10:00 tour to slide in before the masses of tourists show up. Great visit to Ronda!
Very informative and interesting tour of Ronda. A definite must do. Do not miss the Tour of the bullring which was the most interesting part to me personally. Jesus was great!! Showed places to take awesome pictures.
Jesus was a fabulous guide. Proud of his town, knowledgeable of its history, a great story teller and a cheeky sense of humour! He paced the tour to suit our fitness and was considerate at all times! I highly recommend seeing the beautiful Ronda with Jesus as your guide!
Our guide, Jesús, was excellent! His tour was very interesting and educational as well as entertaining. He is very enthusiastic and he is very proud of his city. Do not miss this walking tour!!
Jesus was a lovely guide. Very enthusiastic and a proud Rondeño! Would recommend anyone interested in touring Ronda to book this tour.
Jesus was incredible! We learned so much about Ronda, Spain and history in general. Book this and you won’t be disappointed! The best time to go was the off season went the city is peaceful and not crowded.
Jesús was a very engaging, charming, and enthusiastic host who shared his deep knowledge and love for the beautiful town of Ronda. We particularly loved the tour of the bullring. As a native Rondeño he has homegrown perspectives and insights about the sport, and art, of bullfighting. He was fun and funny, and made sure to find shady spots to stand or sit!
Jesus’s tour was spectacular. He is a great guide with a true passion for Ronda. We toured with him at 5pm which was at a great time of day in Ronda. Thank you Jesus for making our visit truly special.
It was fascinating to learn more about the bullring, the history, and local culture. The insights were really enlightening. Additionally, we loved the personal anecdotes you shared with us. They added a special and unique touch to the experience. Our children were engaged and enjoyed you which is one of the primary measuring sticks for us. Lastly, I wanted to thank you for recommending Casa Maria. We had an outstanding lunch there, the food was delicious. We always try and find the guides that are most expert in the area of interest, and you met our expectations…which is not easy. Buen hecho! Thank you for everything!
What a truly fabulous tour! Jesus was an excellent host, sharing His Ronda with us enthusiastically and thoroughly. Days before the tour, he reached out via WhatsApp to confirm details and meeting location, and even encouraged us to ask for recommendations for dinner and such through the app after our tour. He took us around the city and would have had ample to share WITHOUT the extras he offered, but we took him up on both the bull ring and the cathedral ($9/per person on Bull Ring and $3/per person at the cathedral). In both cases he offered excellent insights that brought the places to life while other families looked around without much help painting the picture; a must do. He even offered some behind the scenes at the Cathedral including 360° views from the top! Jesus shared many details and also was very intentional about including and engaging our kids (9 and 12) with his insights; they were super pumped. Highly recommended!
Jesus was the best tour guide ever. He was knowledgeable, funny, kind, and full of wonderful tips to help us enjoy this beautiful city! If you're visiting Ronda you won't want to miss a tour by Jesus.
We had a fantastic tour with Jesus - he was knowledgable, entertaining and showed us all the best sites in Ronda. He even continued to give us local recommendations via text over the next few days, which was very helpful. Look no further!
Excellent tour. Jesus, our guide, was amazing. Excellent knowledge about Ronda history . 100% recommended. Muchas Gracias. …. Patatas !!!!
What an absolutely fantastic experience to see all the beautiful sights and history that Ronda has to offer. Jesus was absolutely amazing and considerate throughout the entire tour with extensive knowledge of this beautiful city which really brought life to the tour. Thank you so much for such an amazing experience. Highly recommend.
Jesus - thank you so much for such a fabulous tour of Ronda. You kept us entertained for the whole afternoon and it’s a day we will never forget. The best tour guide we have ever had!
We had the most special and personal tour from Jesus yesterday! There was a big group of us Ans even my 6 month old son. He was so considerate and thoughtful throughout the whole trip to ensure they we didn't miss out on any detail of seeing beautiful Ronda!! Thank you Jesus it was an absolute pleasure to meet you.
During our trip through Andalusia we stopped in Ronda for one day. I’m so glad we hired Jesus to walk us through the city. We learned so much history and he pointed out the best spots for photos. Ronda is a beautiful city with a rich history and he made it come alive for us. We are traveling with four kids, one with special needs and he was very patient and respectful of our slow pace and many questions. Highly recommend!
It was one of the most pleasant tours I have ever taken. Jesús is a Rondan with a big sense of humor and very knowledgeable. He gave us a lot of ideas for our free time too. He's being doing his job for 25 years, he said to us… No wonder!
Jesus was energetic and incredibly knowledgeable about his hometown of Ronda. He also had great recommendations for restaurants, wine, and must-see spots. We had a fantastic time with him and highly recommend booking a private tour.
terrific tour of Ronda with the best local guide, Jesus, arranged by our cycling tour Trek Travel… knowledgeable and engaging, we really enjoyed our time in Ronda
Jesus (Miguel Jesus) was an outstanding tour guide for our visit to Ronda. We did the tour with him on our first day because we wanted to get a good understanding of places we should see in more detail, and we wanted his personal suggestions for restaurants. His English is excellent, he is extremely personable, and as a native of Ronda, he was a wonderful guide who could easily adapt the tour to our needs and interests. His advice to us about how best to see the bull ring (from the rooftop bar across the street at sunset) was spot on- we did it twice! His suggestions on restaurants were also great- Some amazing ones like Tropicana - amazing meal- and Quinto Trama (very small, local) were perfect for us. We would never have discovered these on our own. Highly recommend his tour!
If you seek knowledge, history and understanding then this is the Guide for you. Antonio brings both the historical knowledge and insights to the town, customs and its people. The four of us enjoyed the tour very much and it provided us with the knowledge we needed to navigate the town the following three days we were in Ronda.
The visit was totally adapted to our points of interest. Jesus, he's a professional, polyglot, Ronda guide. The city is known to the dedillo and showed us in a charming walk seasoned with a pleasant conversation and exquisite treatment. He also gave us useful information about restaurants and shopping: Ideal.
