Carmen is a very dedicated guide who is well versed in the history of Granada. She has helped make our trip so much more meaningful with her sharing of the historic background of the Albaicín, Sacromonte & Museum of Caves. I would recommend this trip to anyone who would love a walk with Carmen to learn more about some historic facts of Granada.

Maria was amazing. She took her time, explained things in detail and we never felt rushed at all. She gave us unique insights into Granada. I highly recommend this.

Wonderful experience, and also very cheap for what you are able to see and learn. Also the view of Alhambra is spectacular

Good value. Interesting and in depth info re history of cave dwellers and their evolving life, activities, environments.

Was an insight and fun place to be at. Took us maybe 30-45mins looking around there
