The tour was informative, gave us plenty of time to see the Alhambra Palace and Generalife Gardens. Wonderful day. However, the trip to Morocco was unsettling. The wait for the ferry was long, the walk through the town was rushed. For many in the group, it was scary with too many pushy Moroccans trying to sell things. We were made to feel that the only reason we were there was to spend money. The camel stop and snake charmer were a tourist gig. The one good thing was the meal and the restaurant music. I had thought we would see a building and learn something about the culture that didn't happen. Overall, a disappointing day though I am glad I went.

Best $ I spent on our trip. We had a great tour guide who tremendously enhanced our visit to the Alhambra and Generalife. No way we would have enjoyed the visit or learned as much on our own.

Worth price for immediate access to all areas of Alhambra and Generalife and Fernando's knowledge as well as enthusiasm was greatly appreciated! Great tour!

We were lucky to be guided by Imaculada for our tour around the Alhambra and Generalife in Granada. The tour was informative and full of little interesting tips and informative titbits. There were four of us and we all thoroughly enjoyed it and learnt a lot as well.

A lot of tourists come to Alhambra and skipping the line was a time-saver. Granada has a lot of gypsies and hills so I wouldn't want to go to Alhambra/Generalife on my own. Guide was great. Definitely worth the money!

The Alhambra and Generalife tour exceeded my expectations. We were gooing to do a self guiding tour but decided against it in favor of being in a tour group which I am glad we did. The place is so big that it would have been overwhelming. Viator tour did a great job moving us at a even pace though I would have prefered a little more picture time but with 8000 visitors I know that is impractical. Enrique did a great job and the group wasn't so big we couldn't stay together.

booking online was fast and easy.. Pick up from hotel in Granada was good. Tour was led by Taarik and he was very knowledgable about the Alhambra and Generalife. Tour was definitely worth it vs going on own in our option.

You shouldn't miss the alhambra if you would be spain-bound. My head kept on moving from left to right because all the views are wonderful. From the flora and fauna of generalife gardens to the alhambra. the long walks are all worth it. Make sure that you had a bottle of water handy to keep you through the tour :)

The Alhambra complex is truly extraordinary and a must see in Spain. Having this guided tour made our visit to the Alhambra and Generalife Gardens much more meaningful. We would have found it difficult to navigate this enormous complex on our own. The guide was very knowledgable and enthusiastic. He is not only a great ambassador for the Alhambra, but for Granada in general. It would have been nice to make the tour a little more leisurely, but I do understand that they have to limit the number of people admitted and base that on a certain time frame. If you can, do take the time to revisit areas of interest after the tour.

We were promptly picked up on time at 7 a.m by the agent from a convenient location near our hotel. The drive on the coach was comfortable with a short break at the half way point. At Granada, we were instructed on how to take a public bus to a scenic spot to view the Alhambra from far. It was a fairly long break so we had lunch at that spot. We returned to the meeting point and were taken to the Alhambra where we were met by our guide, a lady who was excellent.She spoke good English and was well informed about Spanish history and Culture. We toured the beautiful Generalife gardens and later took the special entrance for tour groups to visit the Alhambra which helped us avoid the long lines. The tour was very interesting and we walked quite a lot. We were quite tired after the long day and slept on the bus on the way back to Sevilla. We returned around 8:30 pm.
