Alhambra is amazing - Amazing tour guide! I learned so much and glad I did the tour as I would not have gotten what I did from a self guided visit. I would like to go back now on my own to stop at places a little longer but did not feel rushed by any means…just a lot to take in!

Great visit - gorgeous gardens and architecture - Great trip from pick up to drop off. Very hot day around 30 degree heat in early September. Recommend taking local bus from Grenada to the Alhambra Generalife because of the heat and the steep hill. Alhambra guide informative with radio mike. Nasrid palace stunning and gardens very beautiful with lots of beautiful flowers. Long day, back in Malaga around 9pm, tour of Alhambra at 4pm. Make sure you take your ID!!!!

Winderful - Wonderful trip and coordination. Our guide for the Alhambra palace was excellent. I would recommend that you bring a snack and water as there is little time for food if you take the palace your options. Also be prepared for walking numerous steps and inclines

Worth the bus ride - Alhambra a must see. The Alhambra guide was excellent, extremely knowledgable. Granada itself not so interesting but nice way to spend an hour or so before entry to the main event

Too detailed, time not always not well-spent - Pick up and drop off were seamless, however, on the way there the bus spent 30 minutes at a truck stop designed to price gouge the tourists (the drive from Malaga is not that long that you need a bathroom break as evidenced by the fact that they do not stop there on the way back), the time would have been MUCH better spent in Granada. Alhambra is very beautiful and the views are outstanding, however, the tour was far too detailed (i.e., too much time spent standing in one place) for my liking, I would prefer to get an overview as I can read the details online, I would rather spend time wandering around exploring. Our guide, Noelia, was very nice and knowledgeable.

Very detailed tour - For me, there was too much time standing in one place listening to extremely detailed explanations of Alhambra's history. I would prefer an overview (I can read details online) and more time to walk around and explore. That said, our guide, Noelia, was very nice and extremely knowledgeable. Pickup and drop off we're seamless, however, we did spend 30 mins at a truck stop (where you can buy things) which I could have done without - the time would have been much better spent in the town of Granada.

Disappointed - We were picked up at 10.2am and driven to Granada. On the bus we were informed that the visit to the Alhambra would commence at 4pm and finish just before 7pm. We would then be driven back to our pick up point in Malaga. As we only booked the free time tour, this meant we were on our own from about 12.30pm until 7pm. Had we known this we would not have booked the tour. We would have taken a train to Granada ant a time to suit us, not arrive back at 9pm
