Amazing insight in the Alhambra

Published on Nov, 2024

Sergio was a fantastic guide. I know we were able to see things that we would not have seen with a large group. His expertise was appreciated by my family. He even made accommodation for one of our group that had some mobility issues so the rest of us were not impacted & were able to see everything we wanted. I would definitely book with Sergio again!

Alhambra private tour

Published on Jun, 2024

The Alhambra is a huge attraction in Granada and not to be missed. Hiring a guide is almost necessary to fully appreciate the history of the place. Our guide Sergio was very knowledgeable and a great guide. Sergio made the tour very fun and interesting.

Worth it to see the Alhambra

Published on Jun, 2024

Borja was an excellent guide. We are very glad we picked this tour with a historian as we learned so much. He was able to explain the history, culture, and the meaning behind the architecture. We covered all the palaces, with each one more ornate than the previous one. It was a good pace. And he was able to answer all of the questions we posed. I’d highly recommend the tour and Borja the guide.

Sergio was fantastic, from start to finish. He managed to find tickets on short notice and the price was reasonable. There were four of us and we had a private guide by an engaging historian who gave us the context we needed. He’s trustworthy and friendly. An excellent guide.

Awesome and must visit place.

Published on Jun, 2024

Thanks Sergio, our tour guide who gave us an awesome tour. He is profession and informative. To start with the tour, Sergio gives us a simple but explicit historic background of The Alhambra, which is an attraction highly recommended to visit.
