Worst tour guide of the world

1.00Naturanda is a great tour operator company and this tour was well organised like the other tours we attended with them. But this great tour is being ruined due to the most racist tour guide we have seen so far. This French lady guide (self-proclaimed) Catherine is the most biased person in this business. If you want to have the worst Islamophobic commentary about the exodus and mass killings of the Muslims from Spain, feel free to join her. If she was in London, she would be reported multiple times for her horrific way of mocking Muslims but here she seems to enjoy herself with the ugliest laugh possible. Avoid her like a plague.
tourist trap!!!!

1.00We bought a 3 1/2 hour tour with entrance to Palacio and others and arriving we are told that it will be around because there are no tickets to enter. The description, photo and duration if mentioned. I wouldn't have come from Malaga for this.
Magical La Alhambra!!!

5.00La Alhambra’s such a magical place to visit! You cannot simply go to Andalusia without checking this place out! Our guide, Catherine, is such a sweet and funny lady! I didn’t feel rushed at all! I truly enjoyed this tour immensely!
Beautiful, not at all enough time

4.00The Alhambra was an absolutely beautiful complex, Granada was a nice town, and Daniela did a great job hosting this tour. However, the only reason why I couldn’t give this 5 stars is because we did not have remotely enough free time. We only had 20 minutes at the rest stop which was barely enough time to order your food and receive it, much less going to the bathroom (we also were not allowed to eat on the bus). Additionally, we only had 30 minutes of free time in the Albaicin neighborhood, and the meeting point was a 10-minute walk from the viewpoint of Granada where we were dropped off at. We did not have enough time to look around and really feel like we were in Granada. After the Alhambra, we did not have any time to use the restrooms or look in the gift shop prior to leaving either.
Informative. Friendly...

5.00We had Antonio as a guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and made the whole experience better! Thank you and I would definitely recommend guided tour otherwise it's very easy to get overwhelmed by the size of Alhambra.
Do not book this tour

1.00I booked this tour over 6 weeks in advance. The only reason I booked the tour was to gain entrance to the Alhambra. While on the bus on the way to Granada, I was informed that they did not have tickets for me to enter the Alhambra. So I spent 6 hours on a bus back and forth from Seville to Granada, but could not enter the Alhambra (which was the only reason I wanted to go to Granada). On top of that, the company fought me about a refund, initially offering only a partial refund that was less than the cost of the tickets that I didn't get! I had to get Viator involved to get a full refund. So if you want to go into the Alhambra there's no point in booking with these people as there's no guarantee they will actually get tickets for you (there was another couple on the bus with the same situation), and if they screw up they will try to keep your money anyway. I want to point out that the guide on the bus (Alex) was very nice and his company (Granavision) was not at fault for any of this - they actually tried to help me. But the company organizing the tour (Naturanda) was awful. No accountability at all.

5.00Truly a must when visiting Spain. My friend and I travelled from Seville by coach. Although the trip was 6 hours to get to.Granada and back, the time flew by and the half way stop was more than welcome. The half way services provided decent food, drink and toilet facilities and also a lovely souvenir shop. Both tour guides, Alex and Danielle were knowledgeable and gave fun facts along the way. The first stop in Granada was the Albaicín, Granada's oldest neighborhood, situated on a hill on the north side of the Darro River, opposite the Alhambra. The plaza is quaint and rich in history, there you can stop for lunch before continuing to the Alhambra. The restaurants there provided good food. There is also an amazing viewpoint of the Alhambra to take lovely photos. And now time to discuss the Alhambra. For this stage in the journey we had an outstanding tour guide called Guillermo. I cannot express how wonderful her was. His knowledge of the history had a lot of depth and he was superb when answering questions. He was very attentive to all who were on the tour. The Alhambra is quite a spectacle, a melting pot of Islamic and Catholic architecture and decor. The size itself is huge and contains a lot of walking. The amount of walking doesn't cross your mind as you become fully engrossed in the history and splendour of the Alhambra. The gardens are equally stunning, containing vegetables, exotic fauna and of course, the pomegranates. This trip is not to be missed.
Fantastic from start to finish! A must do for anyone visiting Seville/Andalusia.

5.00This tour was impeccable. 10/10! The coach facilities were comfortable, clean and smart. There were breaks to stretch your legs and get food on the way there and the way back. The two guides from the tour company were kind and welcoming and gave a great tour of the Albaicin. They were also very interactive on the way to Granada and gave us historical background to help us appreciate where we were going. The tour at the Alhambra was brilliant! Guillermo, the Alhambra guide, was extremely knowledgeable and very attentive. His passion for the Alhambra and Granada was infectious. It felt as though he transported you through time and allowed you to see the palace and the site from the eyes of the inhabitants all those years ago. All in all, this was a great day out. We would strongly recommend this to anyone with a passion for Spanish or Moorish history - or anyone just visiting Seville/Andalusia as a region. Worth every penny! Make sure you book the tour that includes the tickets to the Alhambra as there are a two options and one doesn’t include the tickets and tour of the Alhambra.
Scam

1.00Right before the tour, they told half of the group that the tickets to the alhambra were not included and could not be added as they were sold out. This is a scam as the name of the tour is called “ ALHAMBRA GUIDED TOUR” - most of the trip was the drive. This is false advertising - never book with this company.
