Excellent
Anne_J, October 2026
Very interesting and informative tour. 3 hours in total and a lot of walking with some steps but a welcome half hour break in the middle.Definitely worth the price paid.
★★★★★Tripadvisor review
Wonderful tour of the Alhambra and Generalife
dsegleau, October 2026
We had an excellent small group tour in English with Carlos from NHUE. His knowledge of the history and the cultural significance of the Alhambra and the Generalife gardens was impressive. He provided clear and interesting information. It felt personal, not just a recitation of facts. There were two things that didn't help the experience however. Firstly, the attraction was overcrowded. There were so many people there, that at times it was hard to see or photograph interesting aspects of the buildings. Secondly, there was a confusion about which paths were open and which ones were closed. This caused us to have to take a 20-minute detour around the closure. Neither of these problems were caused by the tour operator, but they did negatively impact our enjoyment of the site.
★★★★★Viator review
