The Alhambra is definitely worth seeing it with a guide. - The guide was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable and shared her insights into the Alhambra. I loved learning about its history, architecture, lifestyles of the inhabitants, and the changes that have occurred over the centuries.

Fascinating tour - Comprehensive tour, very knowledgeable and interesting. Carlos gave us much history and details about this lovely unesco site. There were so many aspects to appreciate and Carlos did a great job pointing out many points we would have missed otherwise. Generalife and palaces are quite beautiful and it was interesting to learn of the changes throughout history and Carlos also had images on his phone to share further information . It was really a fascinating tour.

Wonderful time at the Alhambra - Great tour. Arrived just in time. Guide found us. We had another person in the tour from the Netherlands. Tour guide was very knowledgeable, made it much more enjoyable. Tour is long, wear good shoes. Tour gave us hard to get tickets (sold out 3 months in advance), provided insights we would have missed, and give a pretty good history . The gentleman from the Netherlands was interesting. The Netherlands and Spain once shared a King. He told us The Netherlands national anthem makes reference to the Spanish King. At end of tour we asked guide for recommendation. We ended up in a rooftop in the Albaicin (Muslim Quarter). Below and looking across the valley at the Alhambra.

. - It was an amazing visit. Vicente was our guide and was great. With a broad command of the culture and history of the Alhambra, time passed very quickly with him but he took the spaces to give us data, references, recommendations.

Can highly recommend!! Loved it!! - It was amazing!!! Our guide was very informative and knowledgable. The pace was perfect, allowed time to enjoy the gardens and take pictures but also got us to our tour in good time. Was also very entertaining! Pictures do not do it justice!

Alhambra, the MUST SEE place in Granada and what tour to take. - This is a must see place for any traveler who visits Granada. Get there early to have excellent light for your photos and less of a crowd. The Guide who accompanied us was very friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us a very detailed tour with a good pace to experience the whole place. The tour was not cheap but it was worth it.

Our private guided tour was a 1st class experience ! - Excellent service from Passepartours with clear instructions and immediate responses via WhatsApp. Our local guide was Irene and she was amazing and so knowledgeable and delivered such thoughtful insights into the history of Alhambra as well Spain and the art and beauty of the buildings. Our small group was spellbound for a magical 3 hrs !

Perfect with kids! - The trip to the Alhambra was simply perfect. We were picked up on time and the schedule was kept, despite some delays caused by my children. Alberto put so much effort into explaining everything in a very informative way. We did have to leave the stroller at certain points, but luckily that was fine for my kids (aged 6 and 3). The Alhambra is absolutely stunning — I honestly didn’t expect it to be so big and beautiful. After our original booking through GetYourGuide was suddenly canceled, we had to rebook through Viator. Thankfully, everything went smoothly, even though we had to pay a much higher price. Every cent was worth it! Thank you again for the perfect organization — I highly recommend it!
