    I loved this tour of the Alhambra! My tour group of around 10 people was led by the incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and easy going Antonio (Nono). Nono did an excellent job of highlighting the key spots around the Alhambra and sharing interesting facts about the complex. The Alhambra complex is huge so I think a guided tour is well worth it. Our tour took 3 hours and was in English and was the perfect length of time for me. Even though you could spend days exploring the Alhambra, I think it's quite easy to become overwhelmed so a guided tour really helps to hone in on the most significant aspects of the complex.

    The tour was excellent. Our guide, Vanessa, was very knowledgeable, personable and funny. The Alhambra is an amazing site and well worth taking the tour to learn the details. Also, the check-in was very easy. It was my biggest concern ahead of the day because I had read of other tourists' troubles with other groups.

    Excellent tour - we would not have had a fraction of the value of the Alhambra visit if we did it on our own. A small group of 10 people each issued with with audio augmentation so that everyone could hear the guide clearly, very easy to locate the white umbrella in a crowded place. Guide well informed, kept us entertained for the full duration of the tour. Guide has studied horticulture and gave additional information during the tour of the Generalife Gardens which added a lot of value. Well done, Eduardo, we enjoyed your tour!
