It was lovely to get up so high without any effort on our part. The view of the coast was very clear. There are nice short walks here as well.Another thing was the the exotic birds that are kept there. it was a delight to see them circling overhead. More

The cable car experience opened in 2000 and I've taken a few trips up the mountain and back since then. If you get up before 1pm you will be able to see the excellent bird show, you can see falcons, eagles, owls to name but a few!! This is a brilliant way to see the coastline, and on a clear... More

We had a lovely stay in Benmadena and left this attraction til last. It had been quite windy but we were told by reps and people we had met that if it was too windy then the cable cars would be stopped. So up we went and what soon followed was THE worst experience I've ever had. The cable cars... More

If you ar going to walk to the top take the right side trail, it's much easier than the left side trail. More

Brilliant attraction. Not for the faint hearted and not advisable if you don't like heights, but after the 15 minute trip the views from the top and the birds of prey make it well worth while. There is a cafe and different rocky paths to explore and if you can't face the journey back down or you just enjoy walking... More

The cable car leaves across from the main entrance to the Tivoli theme park. You do not need Tivoli tickets to use it. Everytime I have ridden the Teleferico, I was able to jump straight on with no queues. You don't have to share the cable car with strangers either. So you can ride one solo or in a couple... More

I couldn't decide what rating to give this attraction so stuck with average! It depends on what type of person you are I think - I'm a little bit nervous around heights so the trip to the top (literally) of the mountain wasn't the most pleasurable I've ever taken, however, the views are spectacular. We thought we would land at... More
