Terrific Overview

Our guide, Sandy, did a great job in pacing her tour and in taking us through this UNESCO World Heritage Site’s multilayered history!

Thanks to Viator I was able to get tickets for the Alhambra even though there was no availability for two months. Very interesting tour and very pleasant staff and guide from Play Granada.
