Great small tour of the mountains near Granada
This was a lovely day. Our guide Jamie with an h was very helpful, enthusiastic,knowledgeable and entertaining. With just 6 other people on our comfortable 4WD we enjoyed a real off road experience through steep canyons and winding tracks up to the beautiful snowfields. We went for walks to great scenic spots and took stunning photos. Our guide was able to inform us of the history, geology, and biodiversity of the area and was conscious of the threats presented by climate change. We enjoyed a lovely lunch and it was especially fun to chat with our fellow travellers. The tour was not strenuous but very relaxing

A Wonderful Day Exploring the Sierra Nevada Mountains
We had a wonderful experience on the Sierra Nevada mountain tour in Granada with Biutre as our guide! It was such a great way to spend the day and see the beautiful mountains and scenery outside the city. Biutre was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. He also took great care of us while navigating the narrow mountain roads, which made us feel very safe and comfortable throughout the trip. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Granada and wanting to experience the Sierra Nevada!
