5.00We really enjoyed the tour yesterday! Many interesting facts were shared by our guide. She had the tough task of sharing information to both English speaking and other languages. Would have been great to have only an English speaking tour. Thank you!
Huge amount of history...

4.00Our guide, Aline was fantastic. Super engaging and interesting. It was frustrating, though, that the company put two groups together with different languages, so the poor guy had to do everything twice in two languages. It wasn’t great, as it got annoying.

5.00Hector took us on an immersive journey along the entire Alhambra, telling us about the history and evolution of the citadel, answering every question and curiosity always with a smile and in perfect Italian. Without a guide it would have been really difficult to understand and appreciate the buildings
