Very Prompt, Antonine (aka Sarah 😂) was brilliant. Multi lingual in English and Spanish was very impressive! Kept us informed and entertained in the beautiful weather. Well worth the trip 💪🏼😎 The caves and VR experience was very impressive, but our favourite location was Frigiliana with the wine, cheese and chorizo nibbles ☀️

Had an amazing day out. Our tour guide for this trip, Benjamin, is knowledgeable and speaks very clearly without sounding bombardy. Super glad we visited during the low season - it was very nice and warm even in late November (guess global warming) but no tourist hordes so you can actually slow down and enjoy the towns.

Carlos was a very good guide full of information and very polite and Oscar was pleasant and a very safe driver. We all enjoyed our trip and would use your services again. The only thing that disappointed us was that we paid £112 for 3 tickets and the day after the price dropped which was a bit annoying.

The Tour was great. The guide explained everything in detail, the time spent at each stop was enough and leaving times were communicated very clearly. The free time in Frigiliana and Nerja was also very nice. I saw everything I was expecting to see.

Cost from my air bnb to get to the venue was more than the tour itself. So easier transport to venue would be better
