We had chosen the private tour to be picked up from Seville to Granada. Sergio from Naturanda Turismo Ambiental picked my wife and I up from our hotel and we headed to Granada. We arrived and had stops at various beautiful corners with so much of history in this historic city. Sergio gave us great explanations of the history. Awesome picture sites! Finally we got the opportunity to meet Anna at the Alhambra. Her overview of the palace was top-notch! Her illustration was like a documentary. Yet she was beautifully managing our group to be on track. She was very helpful and knowledgeable indeed. Awesome experience!

What a wonderful day! Our driver and guide Peter was punctual and the vehicle was comfortable and clean. He was very knowledgeable about the entire region, personable, and his English was excellent! We had a great walk through Albaicin and then a break for lunch then a short ride to Alhambra where we met our specialist there - Anna. She is lovely and her language skills superb. Our visit there was comprehensive and amazing! Could not have asked or better and we have traveled a lot and been on many guided tours.
