Der var intet at sætte en finger på ved denne tur. Pick-up af alle hoteller gik super hurtigt, og på ingen tid var vi på vej mod første stop, Granada. Guiden var virkelig god til at informere og fortælle om småt og stort under rejsen. Vi havde 3,5 time i Granada, så masser tid til både at se byen, og spise og slappe af. Derefter kørte vi videre til Al-Hambra - sikke en oplevelse!!! Klart er besøg værd. Indeholder en spændende historie og området er virkelig betagende. Vi fik en 2,5 time guidet tur rundt i hele området, og guiden her var også i topklasse ! Til alle andre rejsende: husk pas, og masser af vand!!! Der var 37 grader da vi har der, så vand kunne man ikke få nok af, dog var der rig mulighed for skygge, så vi klarede den.

Excellent site to visit. Beautiful gardens. Better than what we saw I Seville. The guide on the bus was knowledgeable and pleasant. The local guide was ok. The sound system didn’t work that well. She lost one of the guests which held the bus from leaving for a half an hour.
