This worked out really... - This worked out really well! Vanessa, our guide in Alhambra, was fantastic, and the palaces and gardens were so beautiful and interesting to learn about. Transportation from Malaga to Alhambra and a short lunch before the tour also went smoothly.

History and passion combined - The drive from Malaga was easy. But the thing that made the tour special was our guide, Lara. She was knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the place and how it evolved over time. The palace is magnificent but the experience was truly the best.

Incredible Experience - Probably the best tourist attraction I’ve ever booked. Abu Bakr was incredible at how he explained the significance of each and every detail in the Alhambra. Highly recommend 5/5 stars.

Beautiful, fun, informative trip for all - We are a 3 generation group including 2 teens.
The tour guide was excellent and kept it interesting for all. Because of his knowledge he was able to explain the symbolism and interpret the Arabic writings. He even noticed that one teen was especially interested in photography and went out of his way to help him get the shots he was looking for.
The driver from Malaga was excellent and the van was comfortable. It was an excellent day for our group.

Excellent driver and tour guide!! Amazing historical spot! - Beautiful place, great service! Eduardo ( the driver) and Antonio ( the tour guide) were polite, and knowledgeable. Eduardo is a skillful driver & Antonio clearly had a lot of experience showing the Alhambra sites. The palace and gardens are places you should not miss!!

Brilliant - Brilliant, having the luxury of a guide to ourselves allowed us to get a real insight into the Alhambra. Lara our guide had so much knowledge, from the construction to the decoration to the rulers. Simply amazing. About 3 hours walking but the pace was easy. I would have missed so much without Lara. Her knowledge was phenomenal. Jose our driver was excellent also, very pleasant, water provided on the car, door to door drop off and free time in Granada with a choice of options was great too. We loved it. Yes it's expensive but worth it. A highlight of our trip

Room for improvement. - At $200+ pp and great reviews, I had high expectations for this trip. The trip was fine but definitely had room for improvement. Our driver was nice but spoke very little English and the ride to Granada and back did not include any information about the area. The time at Alhambra was nice and our guide was knowledgeable although spoke very quickly. Our driver was late to pick us up and we barely had enough time to get lunch in the city center. I think the tour should include at least 2 hours in the city to allow some time to explore after eating.
