Worth every step!

The tour of the Alhambra palace was 3 hours long but worth every step. Our tour guide Arnau was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining. We very much enjoyed the whole experience.

Alhambra tour and story

Our guide Georgia was exceptional. Her knowledge of history and archeology obviously goes far beyond Alhambra. We came away with a broader understanding of how World events shaped and affected this place through the centuries. If at all possible, book Georgia!! Mark & Cheryl Canada
