Great bicycle tour hosted by Ruth and Fares. Very nice guides that could tell us a lot about Granada, the Alhambra and the regions history.
Incredible experience from start to finish. The e-bikes were fun to ride, and the guide made the tour exceptional with their knowledge, warmth, and enthusiasm. He brought the history of the Alhambra and the beauty of the Sierra Nevada to life with great stories and local insights. Watching the sunset over the mountains was unforgettable, and the guide’s attention to the group ensured everyone felt safe, included, and fully able to enjoy the moment.
Taking the electric bicycle tour at sunset was a wonderful experience. I want to highlight the kindness, patience, and approachability of the guides Borja and Carmen, who made us feel comfortable at all times and enjoy the route without rushing. The route is very well thought out and allows you to discover spectacular corners and landscapes of Granada as the sun sets. The electric bicycle makes the experience accessible and very pleasant for anyone. Without a doubt, it is an activity that I recommend to anyone who wants to get to know Granada from a different perspective and enjoy incredible views at sunset. An experience to repeat!
Very cool and fun experience in nature and learning a bit of history thanks to the guide, Carme, who was very attentive to us at all times and made the experience more entertaining.
It was a very nice tour, they did their best to get me a larger frame as I am a tall guy. Carmen was a very pleasant guide who took good care of us. She showed us breathtaking panorama views of Granada and made it look easy to negociate the hairy parts Worthwhile to do!
Went with Fares. Had a great time. Views were great and not too crowded.
Our today with Simon was so enjoyable! Amazing landscape, great bikes and Simon was such a friendly and knowledgeable guide!
Great experience with carma as a guide. The route was very nice. Would recommend 10/10.
First time on an e-bike and had a great experience. The views of the mountains and the Alhambra around sunset were fabulous. Highly recommend
Carme y Borja did a wonderful job showing us around. They were knowledgeable about the city and history. They offered us easier or harder route options so we could pick your comfort level. My family chose the harder option and we had a great time. Given the sunset timing, we were given option to start a bit later to actually catch the sunset. We appreciated the offer and accepted. Borja also gave us 3 restaurant recommendations and we were able to try 2/3. He didn’t miss! Thank you Carme and Borja!
