Excellent tour! Laura E. was incredible! She was so knowledgeable, easy to understand in English, witty, and so entertaining. 3 hours flew by and I felt that we got the most out of our visit. She is a gifted guide!

Nono did a truly excellent job - you could tell he knew the Alhambra really well and could answer all the questions the group posed. We did the smaller 10 person tour which I think was the perfect number of people. The earpieces meant we could hear everything he said perfectly and they weren't uncomfortable to wear which was my anxiety beforehand. 3 hours was the perfect length of time and I feel we covered everything we wanted to see at the Alhambra. But you can go back and explore parts of the grounds with the tickets after I believe.
