This was a great way to get out of the city and into a more tranquil setting. There’s some hiking but you’re in the car mostly. The ride is still nice, going off the main road. The guide Daud was informative and had a good personality and he was a good driver as well. The views were spectacular most were 360 panoramic. I did the morning trip which was cool to see the sunrise over the mountains.. I wish I could have stayed to do the sunset trip! Next time!

It was a great tour that took you to get a different view of the Granada area. The mountain air so clean and fresh. It was a nice way to get away from the heat of the city and learn about other aspects of the culture of the area.

This is a must do tour. We spent the day in the Sierra Navada exploring mountain tops, seeing sheep herders with their flock. Had an amazing lunch at the top at 8000 ft. Daud our guide was amazing, knew so much about the mountains, the vegetation and the best views. These views were breathtaking. If you want a day trip that really helps you relax from the hustle of your vacation through Spain, this did that for us.
