If you are going to tour the Alhambra palace it is clearly worth the cost of a private tour. So much more valuable than an unguided tour. Our guide Violetta was terrific, very personable.
Lucia gave a very interesting and well presented tour. She is very knowledgeable and was able to include wider associated information as part of the tour and in answer to questions. She knows her subject! Her English is excellent. I can happily recommend her as a guide. The personal tour was expensive but worth the money as it made our visit to the Alhambra much more enjoyable and gave us a much better understanding of this historic site than a group tour would have.
I recommend it to 300%! A tour through the streets of Granada, with projections while a super friendly guide is telling mistery stories in each place.
We have booked our guided tour at Alhambra with Cicerone and our guide Lucia has been BRILLIANT!!! We are a family of five with my eldest being 18 yo and my youngest being 10 yo. Lucia has made the visit super interesting for all of us keeping the boys engaged. We absolutely loved it and would strongly recommend it.
Thanks to Mar for a most interesting and thorough visit to the Alhambra and Generalife. She was well-informed, not too detailed and tailored the visit to us and our interests. Highly recommended personal tour.
We loved it! Violet was our guide and she was like an open book and she was nice and friendly... absolutely great!! We went through areas where there was not even a tourist and we walked through the Albaicin as locals !! It was a great experience to know Granada from within !! I recommend it 100%
I was lucky that the other participants never showed up, despite having paid for the tour. So I can enjoy a "private" visit with Violeta. I really liked the Tour and all the explanations it gave me. It was a wonderful experience. Thank you.
We offer you information about the most significant places to visit in the city. Everything you cannot miss.

Read +Today, we’re going to tell you about a pretty paving technique that any visitor in Granada will see, as it’s been used across our city and can be easily-spotted on its streets.

Read +One of the most read books on the Alhambra is Tales of the Alhambra by Washington Irving. Without a doubt, it is a essential reading for those who love the Nasrid palace. However, there is even more to the mark left by Washington Irving on Granada. Do you know that he was crucial to recovering […]

In Muslim times, the whole area was filled with palaces, almunias (a type of Andalusian rural building) for the court’s summer recreation, defensive fortresses […]
