An excellent trip!

5.00This was an excellent tour. A nice small group of only 6 people. Dominic the guide was very good, highly intelligent and very well informed. All his stories were interesting, rather than just a list of historical dates. Of course the Alhambra itself was remarkable.
Unbelievable

4.00The tour was well organized in the sense it was easy to find our tour guide and getting our audio equipment and starting the tour was fine. However the visit to all the promised sites like the Alcazaba was not done and it was a rushed tour. I think the duration of 3 hours is not sufficient to do justice for the place and the tour operator needs to account for this when fixing the time. The guide was ok and knowledgeable and the level of English understandable but not at a standard one would expect for a tour guide in English which is why I would rate a 4 instead of a five for the lack of covering all the places and communication. The guide had another tour at 12 and our's was at 9 so from that itself one can see the duration of 3 hours promised could not be fulfilled.
Good experience

5.00Small group is the way to go. The only complaint I had was that they didnt notify that the tour was rescheduled for a later time so I came there 45 minutes earlier.

1.00Viator cancelled our reservation and did not provide an alternate so we were unable to visit the Alhambra, a huge disappointment. Only explanation provided was that the reservation was made in error.

5.00Our guide, Cecilia, was very knowledgeable and able to communicate all the nuances and history of this incredible area. All areas and gardens were included. We were so glad we did this tour.
They changed the schedule without notice

- Review from Viator
2.00They delayed the visit schedule by half an hour and we were not notified. They claim to have sent an email and a WhatsApp message, but that was not the case. The rest of the group was also not notified. They created unnecessary stress for the trip. In contrast, the guide Cristina in Spanish was impeccable.
