Things to do in  Andalucia

Paella from Andalucia, very good on the details : history of ingredients used along with knowledge and experience as to the cooking. Good English spoken , subtle , humorous, yet plenty of Iberian passion. Henry C.

This was a great trip. It is quite a long day, but you do get to see a lot, and the white villages and Ronda do not disappoint. The tour guide was great, and all in all it was a great day, and one of the highlights of my trip to Andalucia.

I was in Andalucia for a business trip. Didn't plan to go to Granada. I tried everywhere for tickets but they said it needs 2 months in advance booking. I booked tickets into Nasrid Palace just one day before. The audio was great, I didn't have to follow tour guides with bad english. The view was breathtaking.

If you are in Andalucia, you have to visit this place. This was one of my favorite stops in Spain. It is quite lovely and just beautiful! The Moorish architecture is remarkable. This is a very hectic place to visit, so I do recommend the skip-the-line tour.

One of the highlights of Andalucia. The Bordega tour was interesting, especially the sheery tasting. The horse show was enjoyable but the highlight for me was Cadiz. I city I know from History. The singing of the King of Spains beard. Fascinating city where I got to see the real Spain. Travelled home on a catarmaran

We moved from Seville real early in the morning. It was still dark, even one hour while we were on the road. We arrived in Granda with our driver David Martin Alonso, an extremely nice person who spoke English fluently. He took good care of us throughout the trip. Once we entered Alhambra skipping all lines we had a nice tour guide. The details of this very special Islamic palace were explained to us while we were stunned of the beauty and the surroundings. It was pity to learn that only one third of the majestic palace was saved. The rest was either destroyed or looted. Even though what we saw was a clear witness of the unmatched civilization of the moslems when they lived in Andalucia. Spain is blessed to preserve such Islamic monuments in Granada and Cordoba and many other places as they ate major touristicattractions.

our guide Theresa was very knowledgable and spoke excellent English. its best to go on this early tour that meets at 9 even though you still have to wait for the entrance doors to open at 9:30. This is such a beautiful place and part of what you learn is that many things that we assume are Spanish and take for granted in our North American decor and some English words are in fact heavily influenced by the Muslims who ruled Andalucia for many centuries.

Hi. A well worthwhile trip-such a stunning area to visit-even though it was raining. Lunch was great-so much food and wine!!. The guide Angela was so helpful and knowledgeable-and the driver was so professional-not easy on some of the winding roads. The only downside was the difficulty in booking. We booked on the internet and we got a response telling us to ring a number to find out about the time and location of the pick up-only it wasn't a valid number. Luckily the hotel receptionist did some ringing around and managed to find out for us. The mini bus was far too small and cramped-we were last on the bus and our seat was so uncomfortable-it was like a school bus-with child sized seats-by the time we got back we were in physical pain as we couldn't move our legs in the seat behind the driver-and we aren't very tall.. I would still go again-a stunning area of Andalucia.

Our tour guide, Luca, was awesome! During the drive out to the white villages he provided us a wealth of information about each of the towns we were about to visit, as well as telling us about the people and culture of Andalucia. He also answered all of our questions. When we visited each town he gave us the perfect amount of time to explore on our own. He was very considerate and a very fine young man. We enjoyed him very much and enjoyed spending the day with him. Highly recommend this tour!!!

We enjoyed the tour very much. The guide, Antonio, was very knowledgeable and personable and answered questions without hesitation. His English was excellent given that the tour was both in Spanish and English. We enjoyed the tour of Tio Pepe sherry factory we only wish that they would have given us a bit more time to taste the different sherries something like 15 minutes which is no enough. The equestrian exhibition was superb we had never seen Andalucian horses perform before and the riders were masterful. It was like a ballet with horses. We also enjoyed our time in Cadiz. Since it was a tour, there wasn't much time to explore that city other than allowing us two hours to have lunch in the central square and driving through the city. It made us want to come back to Cadiz for a few days at some point. All in all, an excellent tour.

First of all, the stops we went to were amazing! To say this trip was a transformative experience would NOT be an overstatement. Some highlights from the trip were: 1 spending time exploring an ancient castle and learning about the history of its control and what that meant for access to the river 2 driving through the winding mountains and seeing breathtaking views of Andalucia and the cows and goats that live in the slopes 3 learning about how olive oil is made and seeing all the antique machines not to mention tasting the olive oil 4 stopping in the white villages and getting more views of the rolling countryside including a stretch of an ancient Roman road 5 learning about cork production and seeing cork trees in several phases of post-cork harvesting and 6 the ancient city of Ronda which may be one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL places on this earth. In addition to the well-curated list, our tour guide, Abraham was GREAT. I was on a tour with both English and Spanish speakers and he took the time to both explain things in both languages but also translate so our group could bond and communicate with each other. He was very knowledgeable about what we saw and his sharing that knowledge TRULY enhanced the experience. He also gave recommendations for what to eat at lunch and let me try some of his soup that is a local favorite. All in all it was one of the most cherished days of my life. I would highly recommend the locations on this tour as well as the company and tour guide I had the pleasure of exploring with.

A brilliant trip! In fact, the balloon ride was in Cordoba, not Granada... No matter: we were well-looked after, from pick-up to drop-off. The balloon team from Gloobo were excellent, and although most on the trip were Spanish, our pilot spoke fair English and took the trouble to include us in everything that was happening. It helped that we had perfect weather, but the trip exceeded our expectations, with fabulous views of old Cordoba and of the Andalucian countryside. Great fun, and highly recommended.

It was a huge pity that the weather turned bad and it rained and was cold during the tour. However, Antonio, our guide made up for this with good humour and his care that we enjoyed ourselves. The Alhambra was the high spot of our three weeks in Andalucia and it was important to us that we had a good tour experience. He fulfilled this and for that we are very grateful. He was well informed and so kind and courteous. At the beginning of the tour we had our doubts because of the large number in the group (30 English speakers) but there was no problem because we had earphones so that we could hear Antonio very clearly all the time. Rather than struggle with a guide book or an audioguide, book a tour with Viator. Will be using them again

Excellent way to see Andalucia more widely with reasonably price. Our guide was really good and had good laguage skills. Ronda is worth visiting and you get to see many sides of it only in few hours. Extra stop at the Puerto Banus was was nice too. Views form the bus are excellent. Maybe there could be a short stop at the mountains Because picking up people from the hotels takes time, there should be atleast one hour more time in Ronda. That was the only negative side of the trip. I recommend to go to the lunch on your own.
