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

Very nice day, start to finish - Jonathan was waiting for us when we disembarked the ship. Pleasant drive in spite of the rain. Jonathan was informative and very pleasant. We learned a lot on our drive up and back. Antonio was a private guide for the day and he was very knowledgeable and wonderful to guide us through. We felt that we had a very comprehensive tour in 2 1/2 hours. Afterwards, Jonathan recommended lunch at the Alhambra Palace hotel. We sat on the veranda overlooking Granada and had a great lunch. Excellent trip.

Fabulous tour! - We had a great driver, Eduardo, who got us to Granada from Malaga safely, and put us in contact with our guide at Alhambra, Abubaker. Abubaker was a fabulous guide, who explained all of the symbols and pointed out interesting places in the Alhambra. Our driver picked us up and took us for free time and lunch in Granada, and then drove us back to Malaga. We are so glad we booked this private tour - it was one of the best we have had.

Once in a lifetime - An experienced and knowledgeable guide for our tour through the Alhambra. As Australians we thought the tour was expensive, but restrictions on numbers per hour and getting to Granada does not give many options for getting into the Alhambra.

Comprehensive historical influences of the Alhambra - Our taxi driver and tour guide were excellent. Our tour guides knowledge of the Alhambra was invaluable to understanding what we were seeing as well as being able to see old new. Details and modern influences. It was also able to get the historical perspective on the Alhambra's influence, uneven modern day life

A Day to remember in Granada - I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a private day tour from Malaga to Granada. Eduardo was personable and an excellent driver and accommodated us all day long with stops so that we could experience as much of Granada as possible. He also connected us with our guide at La Alhambra for our 2 hour tour. This guide was Abubaker. He was extraordinary and we enjoyed our afternoon with him immensely. He was so patient and incredibly knowledgeable about everything we looked at. It was easy to ask questions which lead to a great deal of interesting conversations along the tour. There is so much history in this beautiful place. Eduardo and Abubaker left us with an unforgettable experience and memories of Granada.

Beautiful day in Granada at Alhambra! - Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. The Alhambra is beautiful but there are so many unique details in the architecture that we would have missed if we simply chose to walk through on our own. We all learned so much about the history of the palace, the gardens and Granada from this tour.
