Located in the south of Spain, Marbella is a wonderful city that is part of the Costa del Sol beaches. With a reputation for being the places that celebrities and wealthy people go to when they're in Spain, it quite rightly is seen as one of the more luxurious cities in the popular tourism industry of Spain. With a warm climate, an impressive history and beautiful sights, it certainly offers more than its fair share of opportunities for a different kind of holiday. And with the amount of activities available, it's easy to organize a Marbella tour as well.

One of the most popular tours available in Marbella is a golf tour. With twelve sumptuous golf courses, ranging from simple nine hole grounds to the full eighteen greens, this resort is a golfer's paradise, with the course themselves beautifully designed to run alongside the coastal areas and the ensuing Mediterranean views. Whether it's the classic designs of the Golf Club Marbella, or the relaxing stroll around La Dama de Noche, there's something to suit every level of golfer.

If you're more of an adventurous person, then a horse riding tour is easy to arrange in Marbella. With its natural trails and wonderful coastlines, not to mention its plentiful beaches, it offers both riding and equestrian options, and with five riding schools, including the famous Los Monteros school, the choice is yours as to what kind of riding you wish to take.

Of course, since Marbella is a beach resort and part of the Mediterranean, the waters are there to be explored, and this is catered for with various diving activities. If you've never dived before, both the Diving Centre of Marbella and Buceadores del Sur offer courses that show you the basics, and prepare you for the ultimate in diving - scuba diving. Exploring the clear blue corals and reefs of this town's beautiful waters is a highlight any visitor should partake in.

One of the newer and most popular tours to undertake whilst visiting Marbella is a jeep tour. Easy to organize and an excellent way of seeing more of this wonderful resort, the 'Born To Be Wild' tours are arranged by Baixa of Marbella, and offers travellers the opportunity to visit some of the surrounding villages located around Marbella itself. You'll discover the history of the landscape and the natural habitat, and the excursion finishes off with a traditional meal in one of the local villages. It's just one of the advantages of travelling around in a jeep offers, and makes touring Marbella all the easier and more enjoyable.

One place that you should definitely stop at is the marina of Puerto Banus, which offers a bustling way to end your day. With bars and clubs that keep their doors open until 4 am, it's an excellent antidote to some of the more relaxing pastimes that the resort has to offer, and yet another factor that makes it easy to arrange and enjoy a Marbella tour.
