MY FAMILY AND I HAD 'CARMEN' AS OUR TOUR-GUIDE. SHE WAS VERY KIND AND INFORMATIVE. THE TOUR COVERS THE ALBACIN DISTRICT. CARMEN KNEW HER FACTS AND TAUGHT US A LOT. WITHOUT HER WE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN LOST. I HAVE MS. MY MOBILITY ISN'T GOOD. CARMEN WAS VERY HELPFUL AS SHE SLOWED DOWN AN D STOPPED THE TOUR TO GIVE ME TIME TO KEEP-UP WITH THE GROUP. SHE HELPED ME A LOT. THE STREETS WERE NARROW, STEP AND COBBLED WHICH WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO DO WITHOUT CARMEN. SHE GAVE US A GREAT TOUR. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Our guide (Empara (s.p.)) was enthusiastic and her efforts were hindered by a 100 year festival culminating in a procession in the city concurrent with our tour. However, her English was poor and she had difficulty both understanding what we were saying and we had difficulty understanding her English. As a result of the festival, we did not tour the Cathedral nor the Capilla Real.

What we saw was great and well presented. However we were very disappointed in what we did not see. We made no attempt to visit the Cathedral or the royal chapel on the afternoon of our first day of the tour as the itinerary clearly stated that we would "visit the Cathedral and the Capilla Real" during our walking tour the next morning. During the walking tour, we walked past both of them and they were pointed out. We did not go inside either. Unfortunately the walking tour ended at 1:15 and both sites were closing at 1:30 and would not let us in. They were to open again at 4:00 but we were scheduled for a train pickup at 3:45.
This was a major disappointment as we were counting on seeing the Cathedral and the burial sites of Ferdinand and Isabella.

Unfortunately this was not a "2 day Granada Tour" by the supplier. Instead, Viator subcontracted with local operators, and the reliability of these varied enormously. The Alhambra itself is, of course, magnificent, and the tour guide on site was fantastic. But we were required to meet different local operators who did not show up for two of the three meeting points. (We arrived 15-30 min. early) The hotel was not as advertised. Information concerning the return trip to Seville was shifted and we found the bus only by chance (we recognized the stickers a fellow traveler was wearing). Attempts to contact folks were fruitless. The Alhambra is obviously worth visiting, but doing so on this trip is a risky proposition.

Thouroughly enjoyed our walking tour of central Granada and the Albaicin quarter. Very professional and entertaining guide. Excellent communication from local tour operator to keep you informed

Must Do! The best way to know the city´s hot spots. Fast, easy, and practic, with an affordable price.

Tour promised hotel pickup, but we were informed that we had to walk about 0.5 km to a pickup point, which was over a bumpy road at 6am and possibility of rain. We had to arrange a taxi, at significant cost at that time of day to just go the short distance.
The hotel was out of town and was not convenient. No breakfast was included and this was an extra cost. The walk through Granada was very basic and really a waste of time. The return travel was by train which took5 hrs where the original travel to Granada by road was only 3hrs. We were expecting return travel by road.
A significant frustration was that there was no one available to discuss our concern.
Overall we considered the tour to be poor value and I would not recommend this trip.
We decided not to proceed with a number of other tours which we were considering booking with viator following on this experience.

Really enjoyed this walking tour, it's the perfect introduction to Granada. And not only does it visit some of the must-see places, but also a couple of hidden gems we wouldn't have found if it wasn't for the knowledgable guide. Definitely recommend it!

A great tour to do when first arriving in Granada. The tour guide was very good and the pace of the walk was perfect.

Nice way to see the city. If you want to go to the Alhambra or the Albayzin book separate tours. They weren´t interested in helping us since we had pre-paid. Didn´t discuss the walking tour of the Albayzin with us as with others, so we missed out on that.
