The guide Mr. Carlos was awsome. He explained everything with passion and integrated every member of our group. Moreover, he speaks many languages, that makes him very interesting person, that knows lot of things. Really loved the route, group members, and Alhambra itself. The audio devices were excellent and i even could buy a headphons since mine are bluetooth, so i can enjoy my route. Thank you very much for such professional stuff.

Guide in small group great 😆 Understandable accentless German. Complete 3 hour tour with small break and detailed art history explanation. Only the location of the meeting point does not match your description. Is namely to the right of the main entrance. Next time again.

I booked a small group tour for up to 10 people, but in reality, there were 14 of us. However, this wasn’t the main issue. The main problem was the guide’s poor and limited English, which made it very difficult to understand. It’s hard to say whether the guide was unprepared or if the language barrier was the reason, but the information provided was minimal and not engaging.

Super exceptional. Tour guide had lots of knowledge, the group was less than ten and that made it easy to ask questions and get personalized attention. I would definitely recommend.

I really liked the guide Frances. He was in a great mood and well informed. The sightseeing location is absolutely worth seeing. Unfortunately, I had to spend most of the time trying not to lose sight of my group (due to overcrowding and the set walking pace). What a shame!

I contacted Headout when I could not get tickets because they were sold out purchasing directly from the Alhambra. We had an amazing guide that gave us so many interesting details. I would definitely recommend.

The guide and the itinerary. However, the time of the tour was changed, which affected my visit as I had another appointment afterwards. And the information about the meeting point was sent wrong. The person who did the sorting was neither friendly nor available, Itzel.

The experience itself was really fantastic; partly due to the super good guide Hector. Very satisfied with it. I do think we paid ridiculously high prices for this trip. There is gross abuse because providers know that as a tourist you won't be there again anytime soon and are willing to chip in, and I'm afraid the guide doesn't see a dime of it. Very unethical to let tickets go over the top so many times.

Despite the chaotic weather, Angela was brilliant. Her explanations and all the details she gave us about the Alhambra made the visit a wonderful experience. The reception is easy to find, the staff welcoming. We highly recommend this tour.

The guide showed up punctually at the meeting place. During the entire visit she told in great detail elements of the history, architecture and culture of the time, answered all the questions of the group and always in good spirit. Despite the continuous movement, the visit did not feel rushed and we were able to appreciate the whole Alhambra. Highly recommended in both English and Spanish.

The most important thing has been the great performance of the guide we had. I don't remember her name. At all times, she analyzed with great human depth what we were seeing. It was not a story. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! She was almost 4 hours with us and always with the same enthusiasm. !!!!!!!!!

The guided tour of the Alhambra was great. However, the directions described on the tickets from Headout via Google Maps, which would have taken us to a completely different meeting point, were subterranean. This led to confusion and should be urgently rectified. We don't know what is so difficult about locating the exact place via Google Maps and entering the correct directions in the app. So to summarize: excellent guidance, poor performance from Headout.

Earphones to listen to the guide did not work. The tour was supposed to be in Spanish but in reality the guide repeated everything in Spanish and English. The historical background and information about the venue were not the greatest, I have enjoyed other tours much more.

In two days, I was able to comfortably explore many beautiful sights. The 48-hour ticket was perfect for this, as I had a whole day to see the entire Alhambra and the Generalife and entry to the Nasrid Palace worked perfectly thanks to the fixed time slot without queuing. Admission to Granada Cathedral and the San Jerónimo Monastery was also free with this ticket. A good choice for a first visit! :))

Two bus ticket pickup points were not working, I had to go to the ones further away. It would be better to install them at the bus stops at the bus or train station, so that they would have them as early as the first day. I had a few rides left. The audio guide was not included in the city tour ticket. It would be good to indicate in the ticket also the times of the various attractions, we were not able to go to the technology park since Monday was closed and Sunday was open only half a day, we would have arranged differently.

We could enter the Alhambra with the pass. The information said that the time reserved for the nasried palace was the time you were allowed into the Alhambra. In our case it was 5 p.m. in the afternoon. We went earlier (by bus) and it turned out that we could then just enter Generalife already. This might be useful to mention. Buses worked fine and we visited some other things. The tourist train didn't really work. Logged on and then waited 25 minutes for the next train. Waited another 20 minutes for the next one. That one too was full. Then gave up. Had a good time and took the bus to the bus station to leave for Malaga.

It was great that we were able to get tickets at relatively short notice, albeit without the Nasrid Palace, but better than nothing. The only thing that needs to be improved is the audio guide, at first a bit critical to take money for it at all (4€/person) because there is a free and much better audio guide on the grounds of the Alhambra (but of course this is not mentioned anywhere when booking, so of course you book it in addition) which is linked to a virtual map so you can't get lost or accidentally listen to the wrong audio. This happened several times at the beginning with the audio guide from Headout, which is why we stopped using it after about 15 minutes and only used the official one.

We picked up our Bus tickets a day before the Alhambra visit. We were able to ride the train but not the city busses. The city bus card became valid only after the Alhambra visit. I had chatted with headout TWICE about this. They had told me that the bus ticket would be valid a day before. Wrong!

I didn't quite understand that it was all about the Alcazaba, the gardens and the Generalife. A bit disappointed as it's a trip I don't think I'll be able to do again. However, we really enjoyed Granada.

I enjoyed the architectural beauty for which I organized this trip of mine to Andalusia. I found and saw as much and perhaps more than I expected, truly great beauty, the kind that provokes strong emotions. For that matter, I am not used to distractions, like souvenir stores and merchandising of vara nature, so I have nothing to say about this area. September 26, 2024 Angelo
