We had Francisco as our guide and he was excellent. You could see he truly loves the Alhambra and Granada and was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He had excellent English, was very easy to understand and made it an enjoyable 3+ hours. Be prepared for a lot of walking and climbing of stairs though.

The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and explained with humour. It was an enjoyable experience. However, it would be helpful if the organizers mentioned clearly in the email that the received email is only a confirmation of the booking. A voucher to enter the Alhambra will be provided by a guide at the meeting point. Besides, the email's explanation about the meeting point was unclear to the other participants and me. Therefore, it was frustrating to find the meeting point and a guide. I should be better organized.

It was easy to book and because we could register with the passport we could enter everywhere without any problems. The guide (Juana from Lolita's Travel) spoke very good English and delivered a light-hearted tour with fun facts and tidbits that you wouldn't notice or know otherwise. It was also very nice that it was just a group of 4 as we also saw long lines of people bumping behind a guide with earphones in. That was not necessary for us. I just don't know if that is the case with all tours that are booked through this site, but at least through lolita's
