Our group of 8 had a phenomenal day to Granada, Alhambra and Generalife Gardens. We were picked up on a small bus with 2 other couples from France and Germany. Guillermo spoke mostly in English for our drive to Granada giving us history of the area. We had a wonderful 1 hour walking tour of Granada and then lunch on our own before heading to the Alhambra and gardens. There, we met Sabine who was a wonderful and well informed guide. She was engaging and made our visit memorable. Our drive back to Almeria was a different route which gave us even more sights to see!! I highly recommend this tour!!
