Having arrived in Nerja on Thursday evening, following a two day journey by train from the U.K., it was wonderful to stretch our legs. Accompanied by our helpful, informative and entertaining guides, Ana & Nero, we walked around Nerja, visiting all of the usual ‘tourist-spots’ but also being shown some of its more secret places and recommended tapas bars and restaurants. This was a perfect start to our stay in Nerja.
