Carmen was an amazing tour guide She had such detailed knowledge of everything We learnt a lot She gave lot of recommendations for eateries and things to do Beautiful views - highly recommend to start the Granada trip with this tour
Knowledgeable and friendly guide, interesting tour with lots of information and magnificent views, we enjoyed very much.
We had a great time with Pablo, he was knowledgeable and fun to talk to. It was interesting to learn about the Flamenco history in Sacromonte and the caves. Pablo showed us a couple of great viewpoints on Alhambra and we had amazing sunset pictures, he even recommended some nice Tapas bars which we appreciated.
Carmen was an excellent guide. He explained very well, he took the tour at a comfortable pace as there were many climbs up the street and stairs.
My guide, Carmen, was excellent. So much knowledge and she explained everything with a passion that made us be part of the history in every place.
Spectacular 👌 Paula has embroidered it, made it enjoyable, understandable explanations, very professional And that has started with a strong storm!! I hope to match more experiences with her!! Thank you Paula Pillar of the Basque Country
Very disappointed! We went to the meeting place well in advance of 8 pm slot! First, the shop is closed and no one came to meet us! We waited in vain till 8:30 pm! There was no contact info for contacting in such scenario! Utterly pathetic, especially when you are in a tight schedule and every moment counts!
Estimada Niladri, El día del tour le enviamos un mensaje indicandole que el punto de encuentro se habia modificado a la fuente que hay en Plaza Nueva y que buscara un paraguas rosa, a lo que usted nos respondio que "Ok, recibido". El resto de los viajeros hicieron el tour con normalidad
Great tour with Carolina .She was very informative ,funny and sweet.We covered very interesting parts of Granada with full of joy.Thank yiy
Very interesting and informative. Francisco was excellent - factual and entertaining - the perfect tour guide.
Description does not do it justice! It’s a gorgeous sunset tour where the guide knew all the best spots to admire Alhambra in three different shades as the sun progressively set. Our guide was also an excellent photographer so we all walked away with the best pics. All of these spots also had someone playing the guitar, dancing flamenco etc which didn’t feel staged but rather incredibly charming. The guide also gave us just the right amount of information about the history and ethnic stories of the area and gave us a lot of local recommendations. It was excellent
