What people are saying about Province of Granada

This is one of the best activities I have done and so well organised, our guide Rachel was fantastic and the scenery oh wow. The walkway felt secure, though admittedly if you are scared of heights it might be a challenge but so worth it, we started via the South side and there was a slight incline to go up to get to the start.

Well worth it! Transportation and organisation all well done. Guide was very friendly, but a bit difficult to understand.

The hike was incredibly enjoyable and have some beautiful views. Our guide told us some interesting historical story.

Jaime is amazing! Highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Granada.

Henry is an amazing guide. Was able to adapt our plan for the weather!
