One of the wonders of the world - Alhambra is a special place and our guide Christian bought it to life! It would have been easy to miss so much of the experience without the history and context he provided. Well worth the time and money.

Beautiful - Very enjoyable visit. We booked the tour because it was the only way to visit Alhambra, given that the ticket office of Alhambra had sold all tickets till the following month. We did not have particular expectations from the guided tour, so it was a nice surprise to find out how enjoyable and well presented it was.

Very Nice Tour - Andrea was an excellent guide. She is very knowledgable and energetic. She led this English tour. Like other native Spanish guides, she speaks her English quickly as well, and so it can be difficult to follow at times. Nonetheless, I can highly recommend this tour.
