Alhambra in early November

5.00The format was good for us. We made our own way there. Meeting point was near the Alhambra. Easy to find and quiet location. Eva, our tour guide, was right on time. She was most personable and knowledgeable. Group size (20) was good. We could have spent more time at the Alcazaba and Nasrid Palace but that's the constraint of a three-hour tour, which nears the limits of my attention span, anyway 🤣. The tour ends inside the Alhambra so you can explore on your own but there is no re-entry to the palaces. The Alhambra is truly a gem. Eva helped us learn about its architecture and history. We fully enjoyed ourselves.
No a good guide

4.00An enjoyable three hour tour of the Alhambra complex. Our tour guide. Marta was very knowledgeable. It is a full on three hour tour, and whilst the highlight the Nasrid Palaces are not to missed, it would have been nice to have had a little more free time in the beautiful General Life Gardens.
Excellent and comprehensive tour

5.00Excellent detailed tour with very knowledgeable guide. It’s obviously a very popular attraction with big crowds. The tour navigated the crowds very well and was very informative.
Terrible experience and fraud

1.00do not buy tickets through this platform. I specifically visited Granada to visit the Alhambra and traveled 2000 km with that goal. A few hours before the visit, they canceled the possibility of visiting at the agreed time and moved it to the end of working hours without any question as to whether it was possible. By sheer luck I didn't have to leave Granada earlier or I wouldn't have been able to visit the Alhambra that I came for. They promised a 50% refund, which they also agreed to and said that it would be returned immediately, 20 days have passed since then and they still haven't paid.

5.00Emilio was an excellent guide, great knowledge with a sense of humour! It is a massive place, with breaks the tour took over three hours. A fascinating tour in English, with a good audio system. Many thanks for a superb morning. One tip - avoid hawkers trying to guide you the final 100 metres to the meeting point, for a fee!
Impressive Alhambra and fantastic tourguide

Could not understand the tour guide

2.00My husband and I booked an English tour. The tour guide was very difficult to understand. He spoke very fast with a very heavy accent. We could not understand most of the details he was speaking about. My husband had to take off his headphone. I left it on to try to figure out something, but was not successful. I also saw others in the group took off their headphone.
