We loved it! The first tour in Spain where you really needed the e-bikes. We cannot remember our guide’s name but he is from Brazil, São Paulo. He was a great story teller, we appreciated his mastery of the English language and he made our tour fun. I think it cost more just to be able to get last minute tickets to the Alhambra. This was worth it as they got us in. The Alhambra requires passport information so everyone has to share that. You have to bring your passport to the Alhambra. The views on the bike tour were amazing. The tour is mostly up the hills overlooking the town. Thank you for a great bike ride tour!

Great way of seeing and hearing more about these interesting neighbourhoods. Particularly so as they are very steep! There was an opportunity to go inside a cave house while in the Sacromonte for 1 euro, which was very interesting.

Amazing! Our guide was super knowledgeable about Granada and I felt really connected to the city during this tour. Such good viewpoints of the city! 10/10!!

It was amazing.. our guide was really great! Explaining everything in detail about the city!

So much fun with a professional musical crew and Dancer
