Andalusia .. crossroads of empires

Nayra was a most wonderful guide! She extremely knowledgable on the history of Andalusia and Alhambra .. our tour was extremely relaxed and comprehensive .. Nayra answered questions and we had a most informative discussion on the history behind various parts of the Alhambra complex! The online booking was very easy and the admission fee was more than reasonable for the experience, as was the length of the tour! Thank you
