Great Guide, Georgia was knowledgeable and wonderfully articulate

Georgia was our guide. She was very knowledgeable and articulate. The tour started and finished on time. We appreciated this but do make sure you get there on time as a couple didn’t and we left without them. The tour itself took in all the key parts of the Alhambra and the descriptions and information given were all perfectly judged.

Worth every penny

This was a great tour. There was a small group and good pickup on headset…but the ear hook was too big for me-if you have tiny ears bring a headband to hold it in place
