Visit to the Alhambra - Although it an hour and a half trip each way from Malaga to Granada, the trip is very entertaining with a stop for snack and restroom break. The tour at the Alhambra is excellent qnd the tour guides are insuperable. This have been one of the best tiurs I have had. I highly recommend this tour.

Alhambra- Granada - When visiting Malaga you have so many beautiful towns to explore but if you have the time, highly recommend the visit to Granada/Alhambra. You won’t be disappointed.

Magnificent Alhambra Experience. - The entire experience was wonderful ! Met right where they said at the port and the bus left exactly on time. Nice history of the area on the way. The Alhambra was magnificent and the local guide was fantastic. We also had time to stop for an hour in town and have a meal. All around fantastic experience. Just so you know… 3 plus hours of walking there with no breaks. So much to see !

Great tour - Great guides, well-organized. The split into smaller groups inside the Alhambra was important. Enough bathroom stops. Highly recommend.

Best Casablanca tour ever! - Arafa and Jouad were the best tour guide and driver. They were knowledgeable and we felt safe the entire time. If you are ever in Casablanca, look then up on Viator.

An Absolute Must - Wow, this was a well organized and terrific tour. Our initial guide on the bus Debbie was full of interesting facts about the region. Once at Alhambra, we went with marvelous Margherita. She was also incredibly knowledgeable.

Enjoyable tour of the Alhmambra and Granada - Very knowledgeable guides, on the bus and at the Alhambra. Gave alot of info on the drive to Granada on the history of the area and alot of history at the Alhambra. The tour was very well organized. Also given an hour to roam around in town after the Ahambra to enjoy lunch. The only suggestion I would give is to go over the history on the drive back to Malaga instead of the drive up to Granada since the tour left so early in the morning.

4 stars, with better organizing on front end, could have been 5 stars. - We spent 3 full hours touring the Alhambra and our guide was Marga (Margarita). She was knowledgeable, passionate, and funny. She wasn’t the main tour leader who was Debbie. Debbie picked us up at the port and escorted us for everything but the Alhambra (the driving and the 1.5 hours in Granada. To be more accurate, she did not guide us in Granada-we were given free time to explore which was better for us. But if we wanted to stick with Debbie we could have. I definitely recommend this tour! So why four stars instead of five? I’m a believer in communication and there was very little communication telling us who to look for when we got off the ship. This caused other tour members to straggle in. Whereas we were told to show up at 7:15 am, others weren’t and consequently we waited until about 8:15 to depart. I believe this was the fault of the tour organizers (not Debbie). Also, I do not believe you should advertise that the tour maximum will be 18 people and then have a bus with close to 40. If the number had gone up, communicate that change, it is the honest thing to do. But Debbie, Marga, and The Alhambra were great!

A must see - This was a lifetime dream come true for me. I have always enjoyed reading about the history of the Alhambra and was not disappointed. We had a great guide and were lucky to not have major crowds.
