We really enjoyed our tour with Javier. He is clearly passionate about Granada and it was fun to walk around with him. Unfortunately, some of us were not feeling great, which made the "food" part a little less fun - but that was not Javiers fault. Highly recommend.Good fun!

The BEST!! Alicia restricts her tours to solo (like mine) or small group … and it makes all the difference! If you’re looking for personalized, customized, flexible, focused tours, Alicia is your guide. To make your tour outstanding, she is willing to communicate and answer detailed questions from months in advance all the way throughout the tour. In addition to being a consummate guide, within first few minutes of meeting, she is your friend! Bottom line: if you want a professional, customized, flexible, friendly tour – Alicia is your pick! The Best !

We had a great walk around Granada with Carolina. She is very friendly, animated, fun and knowledgeable. The highlights were being brought to the local market for the best local food, the secret viewing area of the Alhambra, the history of the Christian’s, Moors etc.
Next time, she is bringing us skiing!
Thank you Carolina.

We wanted a different view of Granada - we had seen the Alhambra and other main sights - Alicia tailored a tour for us which was perfect and which she hosted with charm and warmth, viewing some of the less well known sights and pointing out the small details which really help bring history to life. She was knowledgeable and ready with informative answers to any and all questions and did not shy away from controversial topics. A wonderful guide who we cannot thank enoughHighly recommended and charming guide

Our group of 6 loved exploring the Alhambra palace with Ana. Ana was so informative and interesting. We all loved learning the history of Granada and also some really good recommendations of places to eat and things to do like the flamenco dancing. Our group of varied ages 20-50years all enjoyed themselves. We also had some of the local food and wine with Ana which was so delicious. We ate things we would not know to order and it was so nice to have someone else ordering! Would thoroughly recommend Ana as a tour guide Exploring Granada with Ana

After we had already experienced the "Hidden Gems" with Ana, we also visited the Alhambra with her. She organized the tour so well that we were able to visit all the palaces and places almost undisturbed. She told both the history of the Alhambra and many additional stories, creating a vivid picture. We also got good restaurant and insider tips for Granada. Clear recommendation!Alhambra with Ana - great experience!

Recorrer Granada con Javier fue un placerazo!! Nos guio por recorridos no turísticos y nos mostró rincones que jamás hubiéramos llegado solos. Javier es profesional, conocedor apasionado, súper cálido, alegre, fue un placer!!! Ir recorriendo las callecitas de Albaicin mientras escuchábamos la perspectiva de Javier fue un diferencial en nuestra visita a la ciudad que agregó muchísimo a nuestro encantamiento. Un placer!!!

The Alhambra is exquisite and having someone who can share stories, context, and things to look out for makes the experience so much better. Ana is a mine of information and explains things beautifully. We were a varied family group ranging from granny (90) to grandchildren (7). Ana gave each of us nuggets to pique our interest and organized our tour so that we all enjoyed ourselves. She is particularly knowledgeable about the art housed throughout the Alhambra. Highly recommended. Ana also gave us some stellar recommendations for places to eat. A wonderful experience

Ana was a fantastic, informative and interesting guide and really gave our group an appreciation for the Alhambra, its history and the history of those that lived in the Alhambra over the centuries. We had a large group and she captivated us with her stories and her passion for the Alhambra. Ana was a wealth of knowledge and was able to answer questions raised by the group in both an informative and understandable way. When there wasn’t a clear answer or a part of the history was unknown, she was able to explain the possibilities and why that part of history may have been lost. She was also extremely responsive, well organized and patient as we set up the experience. Informative and entertaining Alhambra tour

She is very knowledgeable, and we had very interesting discussions about the different times and inhabitants the Alhambra has seen. We enjoyed visiting at our own pace. Ana is a great tour guide, relaxed and friendly. We can highly recommend her! Also, her restaurant suggestions were excellent, especially for the Albaicín. :)Great Alhambra tour with Ana

Carolina was a wonderful guide, enthusiastic, passionate, friendly and generous. In our 3 hours together, she shared with us many details and histories of the Alhambra and Granada city that enriched our experience of the Nasrid Palaces and Generalife Gardens. I'm grateful for her inclusivity towards our two kids (8 & 10 years old) and willingness to take breaks when we needed them. She offered to take photos of us as a family in various key locations and happily gave us recommendations for places to eat for the remainder of our stay.
Visiting the Alhambra was a bucket list item for me personally and Carolina made the experience as good as it could possibly be!The best guide we've had in Spain!

We booked Carolina to take us around the Alhambra, and thanks to her vast knowledge, vibrant personality, and work ethic, we felt like we had traveled through time back to the moments that she was describing. She is simply amazing! We were lucky to have booked her, without knowing how great she was, for a second tour which we also loved!!!
If you have the opportunity to be part of one of her tours, you will understand why we felt so lucky to be shown Granada by someone as great as Carolina. We will look for her if we ever comeback.An unforgettable experience!

I visited Granada with my 82 year old mother and 14 year old son. I wanted them to see the Alhambra with a guide, but I was nervous about being able to keep up with a tour group. My son also take in information differently than most people and I wanted him to be able to ask as many questions as he wanted. Ana's tour met these needs and more. Ana struck the perfect balance between being friendly and professional. She kept us moving, but without pressure. I, who had visited the Alhambra twice before, learned so much and saw so much I had never seen before. I highly recommend Ana for touring the Alhambra and visiting any other parts of Granada!Best way to visit Granada

The guide we had scheduled through another company no-showed for our Alhambra tour. We were so very lucky to find Ana available to step in at the last minute. Her English is impeccable. She was highly knowledgeable and moved at just the right pace for a family with teenagers. She was kind enough to give us suggestions for the remainder of our visit and even helped us via text later in the day. Truly an excellent guide. Perfect Alhambra Experience

My tour of Granada with Alicia was truly one to be remembered. Despite being a last-minute booking, Alicia accommodated me without any issues, which immediately set a positive tone for the day. From the moment we met, it was clear that this would be no ordinary tour.
Alicia's passion for Granada shone through as she led me to the city's hidden secrets, steering clear of the touristy spots while still allowing me to soak in the beauty of the surroundings. It felt like I was exploring Granada with a knowledgeable friend rather than following a rigid and boring itinerary. Alicia's insider knowledge and willingness to share her favorite local haunts made the experience all the more special.
What truly made this tour unforgettable was the rapport we developed along the way. We bonded over shared experiences, exchanging stories about our respective cultures and traditions. Alicia's insights into Spanish culture enriched my understanding of the city and its people, adding depth and meaning to the experience.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Granada in an authentic and immersive way. Alicia's warmth, expertise, and genuine passion for her city make her the perfect guide for an unforgettable adventure. Don't hesitate to book a tour with Alicia – you won't regret it!My unforgettable Granada experience

She was very accommodating on meeting at our preferred time and showed us things we definitely would not have seen or known about on our own. We had the extra bonus of her teaching me a little Spanish. The 3 hrs with her flew by. Alicia was extremely friendly and passionate on what she does. We felt like we were walking around the city with a friend we have known for years. I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone interested in having a tour!!! Tour of Granada with Alicia
