2.00I was disappointed with this tour. I gave an extra star for a total of two stars because the guide was entertaining and funny. However, if you want information on the history of the Alhambra and Granada, this is not it. I feel like the main things I took away from this tour was all the different ways tourists have tried to deface the beautiful buildings. On the positive side, they are organized and start on time.
Thank You Alhambra

3.00First off, the Alhambra was an incredible experience and a must see in Spain. Our tour guide went by the name “Joey”. Joey was quite knowledgable but at times he was difficult to understand as his English had a fairly thick accent to it. Make matters worse he didn’t do a good job of congregating the tour group together before going over historically significant facts. As a result the group just sort of followed him and tried to keep up with his tour discussions. It would have been much better if he gathered the group around at certain points before starting into a historically meaningful piece. As a result we felt that we missed a lot of the historical facts of the tour due to either his tour guide style or his thick accent. I would have expected more for a tour that costed about $75 per person (not cheap). All that said, he was polite and knowledgeable but we felt like we missed a lot of the history.
Beautiful tour!

5.00One of our favorites of our 3 week trip! Our tour guide was sooooo good (but writing this too late to remember name). She was from there & grandfather had worked on grounds as a gardener. She knew SO MUCH, walked a perfect pace for group and was friendly/inviting to ask questions!!! Grounds are a MUST SEE! Breathtaking!
