Customer reviews
I'd like to pass my thanks to Juan Domingo López Cópeland for the tour he led us on recently. He was an excellent guide and I found both his presentation and knowledge excellent and more than justified the additional cost over the normal ticket. The group was good, well managed and the timetable was accurate.
Juan Cobo was our guide for the Alhambra tour. We travel extensively and always hire guides — we found Juan to be one of the best. We sincerely enjoyed our afternoon with him.
Thank you for the great tour – Gerardo was very knowledgeable and did a great job. I would definitely recommend your services!
