My husband and I booked this tour as a day trip from Seville. It was organized very nicely. We were picked up very near to our apartment at the time we were told. There were no delays. The trip to Granada took about 3 hours with a 15-minute break. We arrived in Granada city center where we had 2.5 hours for lunch and to explore the city, which was more than enough. After this, we were driven to the entrance to Alhambra. The tour took 3 hours and was both in Spanish and English, but the tour guide managed it quite nicely. Alhambra complex (palaces and gardens) was breathtakingly beautiful. I would for sure recommend everyone to visit it.

The tour start time was changed from a 6AM pick up to a 10AM pick up from our hotel. We were driven to downtown where we boarded a coach tour bus. It was more than a 3 hr bus trip to Granada with an approx. 20 min stop in the middle. We were dropped in downtown Granada at approx. 13:45 to explore and see some of the sights in the area. My suggestion is to take a cab if you want to visit more than one particular neighborhood because time passes quickly. We were to rendezvous at dropoff location at 16:15 to drive up to the Alhambra Palace and Gardens to begin the tour at 16:30. The tour I booked was supposed to be in English only. I particularly chose this tour because you get a much better experience than when the same information is repeated in two or three languages. The tour was given primarily in Spanish, English, then French and the guide from Seville had a very heavy accent. We had a different guide for the tour of the Alhambra Palace and it was hurried and given in English and F
