5.00Must do - amazing place to visit. Time flies, you don’t realize how vast and big it is. It was crowded, even in November. Tour guide Sow was great. We really were in a small group of 7 people.

5.00Firstly make sure you allow plenty of time to climb up to the meeting point if you are walking from the city. It's steep. Also you will need your passport with you. This was not obvious on our tickets. This is advertised as small group tour but that still means around 15 people though we all had individual head sets. Even in the autumn there were still a lot of people and tour groups. The tour itself is fantastic and Mercedes our guide was superb. She was knowledgable and very engaging and made the tour very special. Alhambra is a very impressive place and well worth the visit. I would highly recommend this tour.
Great Tour

4.00It was very informative. Love learning about the real history of this place. Tour guide was great. Wish we could have seen more of the servants living quarters and they should let people know about how much walking up hill and some uneven rough areas they would encounter during the tour.
Great tour of a historic icon

10/10 Tour Experience of the Alhambra with Aitana!

5.00The tour of the Alhambra was fantastic thanks to Aitana and her immense wealth of knowledge and passion. It was very clear from the start that she really enjoys history and giving these types of tours. The tour was filled with a lot of information and it was quite impressive how she knew it all and had answers to all of our questions. When she told us this was only her fourth month giving the tours of the Alhambra, I was shocked because she gave them so effortlessly. Aitana was very engaging with the group, and was always offering to take pictures in front of the scenic backdrops if we wanted. Her background in art history and archeology really shined through, too. Make sure you book the three hour tour that includes the palaces as well, or you won’t get to see the palaces. Part of the tour group didn’t book early enough so there were no tickets left for them to get into the palace section. Book the Alhambra tour as soon as you know you’re coming to Granada! If booking this tour, request Aitana! You won’t be disappointed!

5.00Great experience, our guide was very knowledgeable and answered all questions easily. I would recommended a tour with a guide as it felt like you were getting additional information as well as no issues with the route as your guide was with you. We went in the afternoon which meant the group was smaller and it was less busy. All in all a fabulous experience.
Very comprehensive tour! ...
