Got to see some spectacular views that we couldn't get to without a car. Much cooler in the mountains too. Stopped at a few interesting places and villages and our guide Alessandra was friendly and knowledgeable. It does take an hour to get there and there are some very windy roads but all in all a well worth trip

Had a great day with our guide Zaruk. During the bus ride to the different villages he would give explanations in both English and Spanish. Did a ham and cheese tasting in Trevelez and the owner of the shop was a fantastic guy. During lunch also got to know the others on the tour a bit. Would recommend.

We had a great day with our guide Michael who was friendly, informative and made the tour very enjoyable. Our Jamon tasting was lovely and we had the optional lunch which was excellent. Visiting the Alpujarras villages was interesting and we had great views of the area. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful experience! Didn't know what to expect when we booked it, as this visit to Andalucia was our first. We learned so much!, and appreciate the time Michael took to speak with us and educate us on the history and current lifestyle of the area. We were the only english speaking/non-Spanish speaking people in our group, and Michael made us feel very much a part of the group, offering us a little background to the information that he was sharing re:the areas we were traveling through - some background information that most Spanish educated peoples would have perhaps learned in school. We learned so much and enjoyed the day! Thank you Michael! ** if you get motion sickness - please please know that the road this journey takes is filled with switchbacks and ascentions&descentions. Michael is an excellent driver and was very kind to my situation. Take motion-sickness medicine with you if you have any previous experience with 'back-seat car sickness.' Better to have it and not use it, than to not have it and get to pharmacy at the upper hill towns!

Lovely experience full of sorpresas. Our guide was Michael from Granavision. We were a small tour of 6 . Michael took us to lots of interesting places, pointed out landmarks, shared lots of history and made the trip fun and friendly. He seemed to know most of the residents of Las Alpujarras towns and we left feeling like we had really experienced the places. Great lunch too!

emma_homewood

Fantastic day trip with a brilliant tour guide Michael. From initial pick up until drop off 10 hours later, Michael was friendly, informative and ensured we were comfortable for the whole trip. The villages were stunning as was the drive, Michael also stopped off at some great view points so plenty of opportunities for some photos. We also had a great group of travellers, mixture of English, Spanish and French and Michael was able to switch between languages to ensure we knew all the information at each point! Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Granada.
