The tour was cancelled by the guide due to lower attendance than expected. We received a 30% refund, but that was not the outcome we were hoping for.
Dear customer, Thank you for your message. We are very sorry that your tour did not go ahead as expected. We would like to clarify that your booking and payment were managed through Viator. For this reason, any refund request or claim must be handled directly with Viator Customer Support, as we do not receive, manage, or have access to modify payments made through their platform. We fully understand your disappointment, but the refund process is outside our control. For this reason, we kindly ask you to consider reviewing or removing your negative review, as it affects our business for an issue related to Viator’s payment and refund process rather than a payment handled by us. Thank you for your understanding.
I booked this experience almost a month in advance and it was confirmed by the tour company in early December. Going to visit the Alhambra was supposed to be one of the highlights of my trip. I have been looking forward to this moment. We arrived to the meeting point half an hour before the tour scheduled time. No tour guide showed up! We asked everyone around if they knew the tour company and nobody knew them. We kept waiting for one more hour and nothing. We asked in the cafeteria if by any chance our tour guide had left our tickets there and nothing! Tried contacting them by phone with no success. Then I called Trip Advisor. They also tried calling them and could not get a hold of them. They told me that they would start the process of getting my $ reimbursed. This company DID NOT send me an email or communicate in any way with me to let me know that they were not going to show up. Obviously, I can't recommend them!
It’s a lot of walking but well worth it as Alhambra is a wonder ! Antonio was probably the best guide I have ever had. His knowledge and warmth were always apparent!
I went with my mother to see the Alhambra as we had not been there for some time, we decided to choose our experience with them and it was great, we enjoyed a lot with the guide, very funny and friendly throughout the tour, learning a lot about the Alhambra, we will repeat for sure.
I am a girl from Granada living in Madrid and I took the opportunity to see the Alhambra on a tour of my city and I flip the visit, I enjoyed it very much and I was able to reconnect with my city in the best place of all
We went from Gijon to Granada and took the opportunity to visit the Alhambra with this Enterprise. Everything was great, perfect organization and spectacular visit. The views of Granada from there are breathtaking. 100% recommended.
We travelled from Salamanca to get to know the Alhambra and it was a very good decision, the visit we enjoyed very much, incredible experience
