Fantasic trip to the Alpujarra - The drive through the alpujarra was spectatcular. The visit to the ham drying factrory was intersting and the ham tasting delicious. Carlor our guide was informative and added extra bits of information through out the trip. I enjoyed it very much. The villages are unique and the countryside beautiful. Nice minibus and a well run trip.

Bad experience - Lunch was not included, the wine and ham tasting was a miniature, the tour guide was nice, but our expectations about learning about the ham drying process were not met, I do not recommend this tour.
