Begin your tour exploring Marbella's famously fashionable streets, where you'll come across jet setters and a whole host of fashion boutiques. Continue your city sightseeing tour down the Golden Mile--a four-mile stretch of land that extends from Marbella's western parts to the city of Puerto Banus that holds some of Spain's most expensive real estate. Here, you'll come across rows of opulent villas and some of the most luxurious residences, including the 200-acre estate known as the Palace of King Fahd--a summer vacation home for Saudi royalty that resembles a variety of palaces and iconic residences around the world, including the White House.

Continue your tour to just southwest of Marbella to the beautiful marina of Puerto Banus. Here, you'll get to spend your free time exploring its seafront harbor and paved pathways as you discover designer shops and luxury yachts set against a romantic mountainous backdrop. End your tour with a visit to the Nueva Andalucia market--an artisanal market that's one of the largest on the Costa del Sol.
