Incredible tour to the Nerja Caves and the town which also showcased the Balcon de Europa. Pictures cannot shown how amazing it was to be underground in a huge cave full of staglamites. The town itself felt like a tropical getaway from Granada. Our guide Michael was fabulous, informative and our small group felt like friends.
Thank you for your kind words! Michael is undoubtedly one of the guides who knows the Costa Tropical, and Nerja in particular, best. And not only because he has visited it countless times, but also because he loves returning to these idyllic places and sharing the experience with visitors. We are delighted to hear of your positive experience, and we hope you return soon! Until next time!
Great guide, Mickael is dynamic, attentive, and shares very good anecdotes. The organization was top-notch, from the pickup at the hotel to the return. I highly recommend it!
Merci beaucoup pour vos gentils mots! Mickael connaît les lieux que vous avez visités comme sa poche. De plus, lui et toute l'équipe de Granavisión ont apporté un soin tout particulier à l'organisation, afin que vous puissiez pleinement profiter de chaque monument. Encore merci ! Et revenez vite à Grenade!
Went on a day trip. Its beautiful, nature at is best. We didnt download the audio, so I'm not fully sure of the history. But you can download for free beforehand, or pay 2 euros on the day. Cost us 17 euros per person, and it took us about an hour to get through - we were stoppimg to take pics, and enjoying the views
Thank you so much for your kind words! Indeed, you had the opportunity to visit a wonderful place. We hope you can return and that you will choose us again. Thank you, and until next time!
The hosts, Micheal and Alessandra were incredibly pleasant, very knowledgeable and fun to be with. It was obvious they really enjoyed their work. They were extremely punctual and respectful. They took their time explaining important facts and history about each stop and were eager to answer any of our questions. The Nerja caves are spectacular and the towns of Almunecar and Nerja are very beautiful. It was a very full day but before we knew it, we were back in Granada. The whole trip exceeded our expectations! Thank you so much, Micheal and Alessandra! Bonny and Paul from Newfoundland, Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️
Dear Bonny and Paul, Thank you so much for your heartwarming review! It was truly a pleasure to have you with us on our Tropical Coast and Nerja Caves tour. We are thrilled to hear that Michael and Alessandra made your day so special. They are indeed a fantastic team, and they were very touched by your kind words; they remember your visit fondly! We are glad that the caves and the beauty of Almuñécar exceeded your expectations and that the day felt so seamless. We hope the rest of your stay in Spain was just as wonderful. Sending a big hug all the way to Newfoundland! ❤️
The most impressive caves I've ever visited. They were huge and beautifully lit. There are a vast amount of steps inside, which are steep and not for those with mobility difficulties. Be aware that the tiled floor, at the foot of the steps into the caves, is like ice - especially if wet.
Thank you for your review. We are delighted to read that you were impressed by the beauty of the caves you visited, despite the difficulty of accessing the site. Regards!
The guide Michael ensured that we had an enjoyable experience of the Tropical Coast and the caves at Nerja. My partner really enjoyed this birthday treat.
Granada is a beautiful and cozy city and a lot is well arranged. Our "guide" Piotr Janczarek (from Getyourguide), on the other hand, was a gloomy disinterested man who barely spoke. His English was extremely bad and made you feel that we were difficult when we asked for something. I was the only one with a ticket for alhambra so I had to go in on my own he found, but I still had him as a guide?????? Furthermore, he bounced through hill on hill, without caring if we could hold on, he didn't even take a drinking break! He gave the minimum of information when we inquired about the program of the day, often we still didn't know anything afterwards. Never experienced such a bad guide! Will never book with this company again. On my evaluation this Piotr came up with a very rude reaction.
An excellent tour, which helps in 5 hours discover the pearls of Andalusia. Michael a very attentive guide, who explains everything gladly and in detail. Thank you very much for the emotions you gave us.
Gracias por su reseña. Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste de la excursión a la Alpujarra con nosotros y con nuestro guía Michael. Sin duda es un guía increíble, le transmitiremos sus palabras. Saludos cordiales desde Granada.
It was a very nice experience. Our guide and driver Michael today delivered looks like he likes it and knows what he talks about. We were a very small group and did not make the route very enjoyable.
Estimada Mari Carmen, Gracias por escribirnos esta reseña. Nos alegra mucho saber que pasaste un día estupendo con nosotros y con nuestro guía Michael durante tu excursión a la Costa Tropical. Le transmitiremos tus palabras. Saludos cordiales desde Granada.
Michael was a terrific guide, and we explored a variety of places along the coast and the caves at Nerja. He sprinked some history and personal experiences into the tour that made a nice connection to our trip in Spain.
Thanks for your comment! Few people know the coast of Granada and Nerja as well as Michael. We are very happy to know that you enjoyed the visit and your company. Thanks again. Come back to Granada soon!
