Great tour and beautiful sunset
We had a great time with Pablo, he was knowledgeable and fun to talk to. It was interesting to learn about the Flamenco history in Sacromonte and the caves. Pablo showed us a couple of great viewpoints on Alhambra and we had amazing sunset pictures, he even recommended some nice Tapas bars which we appreciated.
Vacations
Carmen was an excellent guide. He explained very well, he took the tour at a comfortable pace as there were many climbs up the street and stairs.
Excellent guide. A lot of stairs and walking but worth it.
My guide, Carmen, was excellent. So much knowledge and she explained everything with a passion that made us be part of the history in every place.
